Repellents are an important part of a multi-faceted approach to controlling deer. Just as some plants are eaten in some areas and not in others, different animal repellents work differently. There are variations in the way deer react depending on species, regions, seasons, and plants. If there is a lot of plant material for deer to choose from it is easier to repel them. If there isn't much choice of other plants or there is such a high population of deer to plants, the deer are more desperate and hard to control.

There are two modes of action that most deer repellent falls into. There are also repellents that combine both modes.
Contact, also called taste repellents, are applied directly to plants, causing them to taste bad. Examples include Bobbex, Hot Pepper Wax, and Treeguard.
