I figure this is the best spot to ask this as the hunters are the most likely to know.
I'm in Monson, Massachusetts. I have planted a bunch of fruit trees and the deer are devouring them.
Is it legal to put a salt lick on the other side of my property (~14 acres) to get them to go there instead?
Or will they just visit both spots. I had put up a fence thinking that if they couldn't just walk up to the trees they would go elsewhere, but Mom & Dad hop right over and the babies just scoot right under. I have tried the stuff you spread on the ground, but with all the rain I'm sure that's gone or didn't work from the get go.
Any thoughts?
