Our Deer Repellent Spray
We use a natural deer spray registered with the state of Ohio. 99% of our spray can be found in a brownie and the other 1% is the same ingredient found in a bar of soap. The natural product is environmentally safe, won’t damage trees, flowers, or shrubs, is weather resistant, and is harmless to humans and animals.
Our deer repellent is made fresh with natural ingredients daily. We use ingredients that the big box stores cannot because of shelf stability. These ingredients make our spray more effective than what you can buy at a store.

No Nasty Odors!
Our Product is Virtually Odorless to Humans
The nose of a deer has nearly 300 million olfactory receptors, humans have 5 million. Although it is virtually odorless to you, our natural deer repellent repels deer with both smell and taste. We are training the deer through smell and taste to avoid your property and move on to another.
En Garde Deer Defense, LLC’s proprietary deer repellent is effective for preventing deer from damaging floral landscaping.

Response from the owner: Hi Mr. Bayer! Thank you so much for the stars! We're happy to know that you are pleased with our service. 𐂂
After having deer decimate my landscaping last summer, I contacted En Garde Deer Defense. The results have been truly amazing!! From when they started last July, and throughout this year, I have had "0" destruction from the herds that roam my neighborhood (spotted 14 deer in my neighbor's yard last week!). I am grateful to Jeff and his team for helping me maintain my garden and my investment!!I also appreciate receiving the email notification when my service is completed!En Garde is a MUST for anyone losing plants to the deer!
Response from the owner: What a great review! Thank you so much, Amy! You hit the nail on the head. We help you to protect your investment into your landscaping - both the time and the money you've spent - even if there are a few nibbles here and there from deer checking back. We appreciate you spreading the word. Thank you for trusting us to guard your yard from deer damage!
After 15 years of doing home application, this was my first time using an outside company to spray, and had outstanding results. 0ur yard has hostas, daylillies, taxus, and flowering plants. Saw only a few deer the entire growing season,with zero damage to our yard.
Response from the owner: Hi Terry, We are happy to take over the work of spraying so you can sit back and enjoy your landscaping. You may continue to see some deer as they come back every now and again to nibble. But once they do they'll realize your plants still taste and smell bad and they'll be on their way. Thank you for giving our service a try and and for spreading the word!
The deer spray works! Nice company to work with as well.
Response from the owner: Thank you for taking the time to give us a review, Mr. Tilow! We're happy to have satisfied customers spreading the word.
My second season of En Garde Deer Defense has just been completed. Myflower garden is beautiful and suffered no damage from the deer present in my area.I am very satisfied with the service provided by En Garde. I look forward to continued growth of the perennials, plus the addition of annuals, in my 2025 flower garden.
Response from the owner: Linda - Thanks for your review. We strive to have great customer service along with our great deer deterrent spray service. I look forward to seeing your yard thrive with beautiful landscaping! Enjoy - Jeff & The En Garde Team!
I don’t normally write reviews but I found it imperative to write this about my experience with En Garde.. Let’s just cut to the chase, the product and the companies service technicians are simply outstanding. I’ve been fighting for many years to maintain my flower beds, etc. against deer damage and this product has been my savior. Finally, I can enjoy my garden beds for an entire season without even a “nibble”of damage. If you’re on the fence about trying this product to protect your investment, try the Free Sample Application that they offer and you will definitely become another satisfied customer like me. Enjoy the Beauty of Nature with the help of En Garde!!
Response from the owner: Thank you for this amazing review and all of these kind words, Mr. Piunno! Surely you are an advertising copywriter of some sort! If not, you certainly could be. We are so glad to hear that you are enjoying your garden beds. Thank you for spreading the word!
I would highly recommend En Garde Defense . Since we have been using them for the first time my front flowers have bloomed and never looked healthier. We use to see 5 - 10 deer around even sleeping on our front lawn, now we may see 1-2 and they bypass our yard ! We are very happy with our yard now. Thanks En Guarde.
Response from the owner: Hi Carmen! We sure do appreciate all the stars and are so glad to know that you are happy with our service. Thank you!
This works perfectly. Keeps deer rabbits squirrels and chipmunks from eating and or digging up the roots. Does not have any negative effect on my dog. Great Product!
Response from the owner: Well, the rabbits, squirrels, and chipmunks staying away from your landscaping is a happy bonus at your property. Lucky you! It's safe for them as well as for family pets, but we can't guarantee that our spray will deter them. But we are happy to hear we are keeping those deer from destroying your plants. Thank you for trusting us to guard your yard from deer damage!
My plants (especially hostas) are flourishing now that deer are truly staying away! I would do liquid deer fence and if I missed a day or two, deer would come feast even on flowers they typically don’t like. I no longer see them on my cameras which before I would catch them with the liquid fence and even spices I would use to deter them. For as much as I spend time and money wise on plants, worth the monthly cost.
Response from the owner: That's part of the magic! We come to spray your property on a regular basis so you don't have to think about it or keep track of when you last sprayed. Thank you for trusting us to guard your yard from deer damage, Kaila! We're so glad you think it's worth it!
So far so good. Nothing has been eaten by the deer. Every year we fight this battle. This is so convenient. No smell, no residue and you wouldn't even know they have been here. Tech very professional and friendly.
Response from the owner: Thank you for this review, Rebecca! You have hit upon just about all the best things about our service - it works, no fuss, no muss, and great spray techs! Thank you for trusting us to guard your yard from deer damage!
First season using EnGarde. Never smelled it, but deer sure did. I had hostas that have never bloom, bloom this year. Not sure what’s in it,but it’s liquid gold.M
Response from the owner: If only it were...liquid gold! 😁 But alas, it's an all natural mixture of things you can mostly buy at the grocery store along with a sticker (found in soaps and shampoos) so it can stay on your plants through several rains. The deer don't like the taste or smell of it. And the magic is in the service. Regardless, we're so glad your hostas got to bloom this year. And we're so glad you took the time to pass the word and give us a review. Thank you!
Polite, thorough service providers. Product works! No odor!Easy billing and account management.
Response from the owner: Thank you Mr. Norful! This is definitely what we strive to provide for you and all of our clients.We appreciate you spreading the word. 𐂂
Response from the owner: Hi Carolyn! Thank you for all the stars. We shoot for them...or should I say spray for them. We're glad to know you are happy with out service.
I have been using En Garde Deer Defense LLC for the last 2 years and it works great!
Response from the owner: Thank you for being a loyal customer, Joanne! Your plants look beautiful - full and healthy. Thank you for sending us the photos. And thank you for spreading the word.
All is fine
Response from the owner: Hi Mr.Orosz. Thank you for taking the time to give us a review.
Explained what they were doing, verified the yards boundaries. Very pleasant. Since the first application 3 months ago, I haven;t seen a deer nor any damage to my plants.So far this year we have not seen more than 3 and they just passed through. No damage to Hostas, hydrangeas or any other plants. Dry satisfied with the service, will continue with company.
Response from the owner: That's what we like to hear! Enjoy those plants! Thank you for taking the time to give us a review. We appreciate you.
My wife is an uber gardener. She manages 16 beds on our property. Our property size is 2.87 acres. We are in Bath Township on the Northeasern corner of the township very close to the CVNP. A ravine at the back of our property leads down into the valley. (A deer trail.) She has been spraying to protect our yard from "the giant rodents" for years, always needing to get back out after any type of rain. We took the trial spray on July 23. Today August 12th we had our first spray done as customers and we could not be more pleased. Since July 23 we observed only one faint nibble on one of the trees. And we have had 5 heavy rainstorms in that time period. But the THOUSANDS of hosta blossoms remain intact. We have only seen deer in the yard twice since then. We actually saw them making a big detour around our yard a few mornings ago. En Guard Deer Defense knows what they are doing and we HIGHLY RECOMMEND that you give them a try. Jeff & Jennifer Stenroos Bath Twp.
Response from the owner: It sounds like you have a beautifully landscaped property! We are happy to help keep it that way by deterring the deer. Thank you for giving our service a try and for trusting us to help guard your yard from those giant rodents. You will see nibbles here and there every now and then as the deer are browsers and creatures of habit - they'll keep checking back to see if your yard still tastes and smells bad to them. But we'll keep working to keep it at that!
UPDATE: Last year all our buds were gone in a week. Also, as you can see by the pic they were eating some of the plants completely (hence the much smaller plants then the others). We have had these buds and flowers for about three weeks with not one eaten!!! We LOVE you En Garde!!We put in a large amount of landscaping last May. I fought the deer and rabbits and lost many times! I tried all the sprays, I did the soap, I yelled, I put up "fences" around the bushes.... bunnies ate the blooms on the bushes and the deer ate a lot of blooms and leaves.I got my first spray done three weeks ago. I have buds and leaves on everything with no sign at all of anything eaten!!!!This product is amazing. The deer don't even come near the house now! They stay further away in the yard.I would HIGHLY recommend this and would give them more stars if I could!
Response from the owner: Oh! Thank you Sheri! Five stars is plenty. We love that you don't have to yell into your back yard any more😁 and that you have your landscaping back and uneaten. Thank you for trusting us to guard your yard from deer damage and for this review.
I'm not sure how they do it as we have tried multiple remedies to stop the deer from devastating our landscaping. En Garde is the best!
Response from the owner: Oh, thank you, Mr. Furry! Part of the magic is in the service. We spray on a regular basis to keep up with new growth so you don't have to think about when was the last time you sprayed. Enjoy that peace of mind!
Effective, on time applications and loved by day lilies that we love.
Response from the owner: Hi Mr. Lind, Thank you for taking the time to give us a review. We love the day lilies, too! We also love that you got to enjoy yours without them being eaten first. Thank you for trusting us to guard your yard against deer damage.
After being plagued with so many deer every day these last several years, (we live near the Metroparks) I’m finally seeing a lot of my perennials bloom. They used my yard as if it was their home, eating the crabapples, flowers and anything else edible, resting in my gardens for a nap or just out for a stroll. My hostas are not being devoured. I will have to wait until later this summer, early fall to see if the bucks destroy my shrubs with their antlers, as they have in the past. I admit that I was skeptical but desperate enough to try this service. So far, so good!
Response from the owner: Thank you for taking a chance on us, Gail. We're so glad to hear that so far, you are happy with our spraying service. We can't promise that deer won't come back and nibble here and there to find out if your yard still smells and tastes bad to them. They are browsers and creatures of habit. But we can say that you will see great results from when they could eat however much they wanted all over your property til now. Thank you for taking the time to write us a review.
Engarde has a wonderful service. I am able to enjoy all my hydrangeas, etc.. It is a God. I suggest any garden lovers to use their services. I am extremely pleased.
Response from the owner: Hi Ellie! Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We completely agree with your suggestion.😊 We're so glad to hear that you are enjoying your flowers. Thank you for trusting us to guard your yard from deer damage.
Safe product that will work rain or shine, does not harm the environment, keeps pollinators feeding, is safe for humans and pets. Better than Deer Scram or any other product we've tried in the last 18 years. Try it- you will LOVE IT!... and forgot to mention it is also very safe for the deer and other critters which is equally important to our family. Thank you!
Response from the owner: Hi Mrs. Wolfson! Our product is even safe for the deer. They just don't like the smell or taste of it. It doesn't mean they won't come back to take a nibble here or there every now and again. But in general they'll go off to find better smelling and tasting plants. Thank you for spreading the word! We appreciate you!
We are very happy with the results we’ve had with the En Garde system. So nice to see our hostas thriving this year instead of being the salad bar for the deer that they were last year. So glad I called them. An extra plus, the fellows who’ve come are so very nice and willing to answer questions!
Response from the owner: We are so glad you called, as well, Mrs. Louisin! And we totally agree with you - our spray techs are the best! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with our service and product.
I can’t thank you enough for my beautiful yard of flowers, ones I haven’t seen in 5 years due to deer overpopulation. I tell everyone about your service. I now have beautiful bouquets to pick. Thank you again, your service is the best!
Response from the owner: You are most welcome! We love to hear that you can enjoy your flowers and make bouquets! And thank you for passing the word. Be sure to tell them to drop your name when they call. If they become a customer you will get 50% off of a spray. You will get that discount each time any one of your referrals signs on.
LOVE love love this company!! I have used every commercial product and homemade concoction out there … they worked for a minute but the deer always returned. After 2 seasons of En Garde’s deer defense, I finally have my lilies, hostas, hydrangeas, and day lilies to enjoy!!! I literally watch the deer skirt my yard and head to all my neighbors. Thank you, En Garde!
Response from the owner: You are very welcome, Maryjo! Part of the magic - besides our taste and smell based product - is the service. It's that we spray on a regular basis so you don't have to and to keep up with new growth and the weather. We are so glad that you are getting to enjoy your landscaping. Thank you for being a loyal customer!
Going for our 3rd year with En Garde. Over the past 2 years we have seen Hostas grow huge like they did years ago and discovered other plants and flowers we were sure were goners due to the deer. Expecting the same again this year!
Response from the owner: Thank you for your loyalty, Valerie. We're looking forward to seeing what grows this year!
Excellent service.
Response from the owner: Hi Mr. Carr! Thank you for all of the stars! We are honored to have had you as a loyal customer since 2020. Thank you for trusting us to guard your yard from deer damage.
En Guard is the real deal! I have been able to enjoy flowering bushes, trees and plants despite my neighborhood being inundated with deer. Before finding En Garde, I was not able to have ANY plantings even "deer resistant" plants! The product they spray has no odor and it is not toxic.It works! En Garde employees are professional, knowledgeable and very pleasant! I highly recommend this service if you are plagued with deer eating your landscape.
Response from the owner: Thank you for giving us a review, Melissa! And thank you for the recommendation. If I was a potential customer on the fence about trying the service your review would convince me. Thank you for trusting us to guard your yard against deer damage!
Very professional and friendly
Response from the owner: We agree, Eileen, our spray techs and office staff are the best! It makes a difference, doesn't it? Thank you for spreading the word.
So far this year excellent results nothing has been eaten
Response from the owner: So far, so good! That's what we like to hear, Mr. Zabell. Thank you for the review and the stars. Deer are grazers, so they might come back through your yard and nibble a bit here and there just to see if your yard still tastes and smells bad to them. But they'll move on when they're reminded by our spray. Enjoy your landscaping!
Very nice courteous staff and it seems to be working. I finally have some bushes and flowers
Response from the owner: They sure are! We're glad you think so, too. We love to hear that our spray is working for you and that you get to enjoy your flowers and bushes. Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We appreciate you!
We live in a heavily wooded development off of ridge road in North Royalton we have an abundance of deer.... As a matter of fact we usually have a doe give birth annually in our development close to our condo... I received my third application today and so far three of my neighbors have gotten their plants destroyed I have over 15 to 20 hostas nothing's been touched...... Success ......
Response from the owner: Your hastas look beautiful! Thank you for sharing photos. We agree...success! If those three neighbors want to have a free trial be sure that they drop your name as the person who referred them - you will get 50% off of one spray each time one of them (or anyone you refer) becomes a customer. Good deal!
This service reduced the piles of deer crap in my back yard I had to deal with each spring from 100-150 to 0-3. I also get no damage to my 100 hostas. It also helps a lot with my 70 foot garden along my driveway. They are absolutely fantastic!
Response from the owner: Well, there's a side benefit we don't always think about! We're glad we could help with your "yard waste" problem, Carol😄. Thank you for taking the time to share and give us this review.
This was incredible! My yard has never looked so good throughout the summer. No smell too.Thanks
Response from the owner: Hi Ruth! Thank you for taking the time to give us a review. I'm with you on the no smell thing - that would definitely be a deal breaker for me. We are so glad to hear how nice your yard looks!
Very happy with En Garde Deer Defense, I have been dealing with this deer problem for years and I live in Parma Ohio. I have tried every home remedy and no prevail.Thanks for keeping the deer out of my yard and saving hundreds and hundreds of dollars on my plants for which before the deer would eat daily. The office staff nice to deal with very personable and professional.
Response from the owner: You are very welcome! It is our pleasure. Thank you for taking the time to give us this review Mr. Moga!
My husband and I are relatively new customers. We have a terrible problem with deer. Our property is heavily landscaped. We have invested a lot of time and money in our property. While we think the deer are beautiful they are using our property as a salad bar! And that is not an exaggeration! Or friend who knew that we were having difficulty managing the deer population on our property said she read an ad about En Garde Deer Defense. We had been treating our property on our own and while effective it was very temporary and a lot of work. She said that En Garde Deer Defense offered a free trial application. I thought well I'm going to do it because I have nothing to lose. And I will believe it when I see it. We set up our appointment. This was for the free trial. The service provider showed up exactly when they were supposed to explained the service to us, and how it worked. He then serviced our property and we sat back to wait. Absolutely zero deer damage from that day forward. And I do mean zero! The property next door to us was being annihilated an hour property was perfect. We immediately signed up for continuing service and I can't begin to describe how happy I am! They finished up our service in the fall and we set up when we wanted our service to start again this spring. Once again right on time! The deer had already started nibbling and I thought you aren't going to ruin my flowers again. One application and no more deer! They wander around in the yard herds of them! We are on a dead end street and next to nothing but wildlands. They aren't touching anything in my garden. I wasn't sold on this until I saw the results. This product absolutely works! And my property 100% effective! And like I said we are a salad bar for deer! No smell, no staining, no nothing! But the deer know that it's there and this works! I am so happy that we found En Garde Deer Defense! One last thing for us to worry about. We aren't hurting the environment or the deer. And we can just sit back and relax and enjoy our beautiful property! Thank you En Garde!
Response from the owner: Hi Vickie! Thank you so much for this great review! You touch on many of the concerns of those who've heard of us but are reluctant to try our service. We're so happy to read about your success in your yard and that it is no longer a deer salad bar Thank you for trusting us to guard your yard from deer damage. We appreciate you!
Looking forward to keeping the 🦌 out of my gardens this summer!!!Awesome service and company!
Response from the owner: So are we! Enjoy your flowers and plants! Thank you for this review.
Great company! Very good at communicating. Product works!
Response from the owner: Hi Alan! Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We aim to please!
Response from the owner: Hi Cynthia! We're so glad you're back! We appreciate you and returning customers like you for taking the time to give us a review! Thank you for spreading the word!
We have not seen deer, deer damage or fresh deer droppings in our yard since the very first treatment. We are thrilled to be able to enjoy playing in our yard with our grandchild without dodging deer droppings. Thank you!
Response from the owner: That's great to hear, Julie! Thank you so much for taking the time to write us a review. Have so much fun playing!
I’ve been truly delighted with the service from En Garde Deer Defense. My garden never looked better last year, and I was no longer a slave to constantly worrying about deer damage. Even throughout the winter, no harm came to my plants, and I was saved the expense of replacing decimated bushes this spring.The company provides excellent customer service and communication, but most importantly, the product works!I could not recommend En Garde more highly.
Response from the owner: Hi Emilie! Thank you so much for this great review! We appreciate your kind words and recommendation. And thank you for posting those photos. You have a lovely yard! Enjoy that garden again this year!
We hired En Garde last fall and it is probably one of the best decisions we made. The deer have been relentless eating our shrubs....even Boxwood shrubs. We are elated with the result of En Garde's products. Most of all I am over-the-top all my perennial are in full blown and not one has been touched by deer. I would highly recommend En Garde. AWESOME!!!!!
Response from the owner: Thank you for taking the time to write us a review and to spread the word, Sherrie! We are so glad to hear that you are so happy with our service! Enjoy those flowers!
Response from the owner: Hi Noreen! Thank you for all of the stars! We're glad to know that you like our service!
Excellent product and service. It WORKS AMAZING! We have a 2400 square foot flower meadow and the deer Do not touch it!!
Response from the owner: I bet that flower meadow is beautiful! Thank you for trusting us to guard it from deer damage. And thank you for all the stars and this review!
I am sold!! This is the only product that works for me. It doesn't stink, and I don't have to apply it.
Response from the owner: That's part of the magic - we come to spray on a regular basis so you don't have to think about when was the last time you sprayed. We're so glad our service is working for you, Lisa! Thank you for leaving us a review!
Excellent service and product!
Response from the owner: Thank you, Mrs. Graham! We think so, too! We're glad to hear it from you.
The service technicians are very knowledgeable and highly qualified.
Response from the owner: You are correct, Mr. McManus! They've been mentored by experienced technicians, they've been trained in the field, and they are licensed by the state. They are also proficient in the use of the technology we use to make sure your service is delivered on a timely and regular basis. Our technicians are the best! Thank you for sharing!
The professional applicator took great care in spraying the yard. And, with my ring doorbell I watched him get behind a large flower pot and spray it from behind so as not to get the spray on my windows.Thanks
Response from the owner: Our spray techs are the best! Gotta love those ring doorbells for the physical proof, though. Thank you for sharing, Mr. Chinchar. And thank you for taking the time to give us a review.
I love En Guard!!! The deer were do prolific in our yard that they were starting to not only destroy my annuals and perennials…. But my shrubs as well!!! And replacing shrubs is very expensive!!!En Guard really made a huge difference!!! My shrubs have recovered and I can even enjoy flowers again.I would highly recommend!!!
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for your recommendation, Amy! We appreciate you spreading the word. And we love to hear how happy you are with the results of our service. Thank you for trusting us to guard your yard from deer damage.
