Simply use a potatoe peeler to thinly slice bars of Irish Spring soap around your garden. Only drawback is the color of the soap surrounding your garden, but it works fantastically! The shavings last for weeks.
You did not mention the reason why you are doing this, why repel deer? Is it for nice fragrant environment or something like deer repellent? Anyways thanks for sharing this deer control information. I will try soap for deer repellent first then look at other deer control recipes.

Mix with water by: Anonymous
I keep a watering can with a bar of Irish Spring in it in my garden and sprinkle it around and even splash a little on the plants. It doesn't seem to hurt them. I apply after it rains and washes the earlier application off. When you empty the can of water you can refill it and leave it overnight to dissolve more of the soap. When the soap mostly dissolves just throw another bar in but one bar lasts a good while.

Try the others first. Some of these work well. Combine the pee and the spray treatments and you will have good luck.
