Ingredients:
- 2 eggs
- 1 1/2 to 2 tsp ground cayenne pepper
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 gallon water (2 cups separate)
Preparation:
- Blend first three ingredients with two cups water for 1 minute.
- Let sit for a while, then re-blend at least twice.
- Strain through a fine mesh strainer into a 1 gallon container (this is important to prevent spray nozzle clogging).
- Top off with water to make 1 gallon.
- Let sit for several days, preferably in the sun. (Sometimes takes up to 2 weeks to get really stinky!)
When Ready to Use:
- Shake well.
- Using a tank-type sprayer, lightly spritz plants, shrubs, or evergreens.
- Occasionally shake sprayer to keep particles suspended.
- Freshly-sprayed repellant will smell a little wicked at first. It will dissipate to us, but not to the deer.
- Do not use directly on edible plants.
- Reapply after heavy rain.
