Do deers eat tomato plants?
Deer will pretty much eat anything! I would put a tall wire fence just around the plants or try putting moth balls around the perimeter to keep them away.

Reply:The only thing I have seen deer learn to avoid was daffodils, which are extremely poisonous in all parts. They will eat just about anything, and down to the ground. Often, what they don't eat is so trampled on that there isn't much left. We had a garden in a highly populated deer area and found that a tall fence with lots of stakes inside the garden seemed to keep th deer out most of the time. We had a five foot woven wire fence with two strands of wire above it (6+ ft. total) while the stakes made jumping the fence an inhospitable landing ground. Many in our area also tied pie tins to string to discourage them by the movement and sound. Human hair tied in bags (those plastic woven kind onions come in) sometimes works too as does the hair spread around the garden. Go to a barbershop or beauty saloon and ask for some sweepings.


There is also a product you can get at some garden centers that is called something like zoo poo, it's from lions and wolves and is supposed to keep deer and other animals out, though I think it's expensive. Other than that you can try various deer repellents, some of which have a nasty odor.
