Gardenality.com's Answer · Hi Tammy,
I've been using Milorganite fertilizer on all of my flowering plants and shrubs. The deer avoid the plants once Milorganite is applied. Milorganite is a great fertilizer as well. I apply the Milorganite about every six weeks. Milorganite is non-burning so if you want to put it a little heavy it's of no worry.
I've heard of people broadcasting Milorganite around the outer perimeter of their vege garden. From what they say it works quite well. Many actually use it as a fertilizer in the garden. Milorganite is made from sewer sludge. It goes through a process to kill off harmful bacteria, and comes in a pelletized form in a 36 lb. bag. The Chinese have been using it for years and years, and now many Americans are using it.
