Just discovered munched (and missing!) leaves on my fruit trees (Peach, Apple and Cherry). I assume it's from doe-eyed deer. After reading around the internet, I decided to mix up some, uh, rotten egg water (1 egg/1 gallon of water) with peppers (significant amounts [1/2 cup each?] of freshly ground black pepper corns, ground red pepper flakes, paprika and chili powder). It's now sitting on the front porch putrifying.
I suddenly got worried a bit ago that the peppers' oils would damage the (very few) leaves left on the trees. Will spraying this concoction on the leaves damage them? Will it, as a side benefit, kill the peach leaf curl? Can I use it as a seasoning for venison?
