Deer despair

How does a radar sprinkling system work. Is there an online site where I can buy one - I live in the Highlands of Scotland and have no nearby stores.

First, try hanging cloth bags or stockings full of smelly deodorant bar soap around the garden. Works best if shredded like cheese. My friend had success with Irish Spring, if you have that brand there. He had a bunch of young apple trees which were being nibbled by deer. He ran out of soap while hanging the stockings, leaving 2 trees unprotected for a few days until he could get to the store for more soap. The "treated" trees were left alone, while the unprotected ones were still nibbled. Not 100% scientific, but it worked (and still works) for him.

As far as ugly fencing, you might consider an electric fence. The wires can be mounted on wooden posts which aren't ugly. Use a timer to shut the system off at certain times of day, or you're concerned about people being tingled.

Thanks for your help. I might consider that but my only concern is my cats and directing it so that they can still get in the cat flap. Difficult trying to allow some animals in and trying to keep others out.
