A fence at least 8 feet high can prevent deer from jumping into your garden.

Sprinklers, lights, or ultrasonic devices can scare deer away.
Use Motion-Activated Devices
Spray homemade solutions with garlic, hot pepper, or vinegar to keep deer at bay.
Apply Natural Repellents
Netting, row covers, or thorny bushes can protect vulnerable plants.
Add Physical Barriers
