Put deer whistles on your car. They cost lest than $10 and are available at your local auto parts store. They work. It’s amusing to watch the local deer scamper away from me, instead of turning and charging toward me as I drive down the street. My first set of deer whistles were already on my car that we bought used. We added them to our other car when we saw how effective they were.
My husband had his front bumper and grill replaced 3 times at a cost of $1000+ each time before adding deer whistles. Nothing since. (He hit a coyote in Wyoming, a wild turkey down the road from us, and a racoon 3 days after getting the repaired car back the last time.) Now, the animals run the opposite way.
So far I been lucky as they stood still and let me drive around them. One time I drove right between three of them as they stood on the road and watched me .
In some ways its like driving successfully in ice and snow here, you have to not panic.
This time another car in front of me drove around the one deer too.
A buddy of mine bought some of them whistles at the auto store and installed them right there in the parking lot.
He only lives 5 mile from the store, but he hit 3 deer afore he got HOME!!
Upon investigation, it turned out he installed them BACKWARD!
