Thank you for such a great post you just made my morning you made me laugh so much I love it and all the good ideas you have to protect your beautiful plants keep up the good work both of you keep safe love you both and being being too
Hollis a good ole boy of mine said to use fishing line, make a perimeter around your plants, deer approach and get spooked when they touch the line, they feel it but can’t see it, little trick we use down here in southwest Texas
How funny! Thanks for the laughs, but mostly thanks for the info on the deterrents. I've got a problem with raccoons and groundhogs. This might be just the thing! God Bless!
Had to chuckle a little. We just moved down here to the FL panhandle from rural TN. Used the same soap trick up there. Low voltage electric wire worked better for us there, but I appreciate your sprinkle protection too.Would love to see the deer scamper off after a squirt!
Well I'm reading this and want to let you know that I have done just the opposite I'm moving from Florida going into Ruel Tennessee lol enjoy Florida I do believe you will enjoy the weather much better
Thanks Nanc and Hollic. I appreciate your videos. Looking forward to the new Florida planting season. Hope you got you tomatoes seeded? I'm in South FL and have a few nice Tobasco plants for the first time.
Bing Bing certainly takes his job seriously! Good work on "protecting" your animal resources with non-lethal units (traffic has almost eliminated the natural ecosystem in my semi-rural location...fewer deer and others which I miss).
Hi there, God bless you'll. I really enjoyed the video.. I live in the US Virgin Islands and believe it or not, we have deers. They're eating all my mother's in-law hibiscus and she needs something to chase them away.. What is the name of the sprinkler and where I can find them? Thank you and God bless you!!!
I installed two of these, and they worked for less than a month. The Big Problem is that ordinary garden hose is not intended to work with constant pressure. After a week or two at 50psi or more, the hose wall will bubble and/or the fittings will fail. Read the manufacturer info, they acknowledge it. Hose that is rated for continuous pressure is much more expensive. The Little Problem is that the plastic and the batteries in these devices is simply not rugged, and fails in less than a year, especially if subjected to very high or low temps.
I really like this set up. I do not live on our farm but I am there on weekends. One thing concerns me is that I do not like keeping the water on when I am not there. We have city water. The raccoons got all of my pears this year. Is there anything else I could use to keep them off. I trapped 4 raccoons and moved them. Raccoons are so smart ! I even had a 3 1/2 ft metal cylinder around it. They just get on one another's backs and climb up. I have really had it with raccoons!
Great idea to save your orchard trees. Nancy, you look lovely in that hat. Now, if you could just get Hollis to wear ribbons in that unkept beard, he would look lovely too. :-}
You guys are too cute!! Unfortunately here in MD farmers can shoot deer anytime of day or night. There are some that plant ‘sacrifice’ crops around the perimeter, which is a genius idea.
I have a couple of these but because I had access to lots of old re bar and and a welder I made heavy cages around my fruit trees and even though they are not pretty they work 100% off the time and I can remove them with my tractor to work on the trees. Love that beard
Here in the city I have had a nasty groundhog that ate more of my garden than we did. Not allowed to put an electric fence up and the have a heart traps are a joke. They release them at the bottom of the hill. Groundhogs are not dumb and knows where a good meal comes from. Had bought one of those sprayers but the neighborhood kids took it.So frustrated. Praying it is God's plan to get out of this city but until then if you have any ideas for next year I would be grateful. I tried the Irish spring soap and the hot pepper powder and neither worked. God's blessing to you and yours
Over Time these Sierra Mule Deer just started using mine as a Deer Wash Station. Works good for a few weeks. I think hunger is the driving factor. I see the newer versions are much fancier.
I prefer putting a fence around what I want to protect .. and then put a barking dog inside. Not one that makes friends with the deer .. one that drives them off. It works well for chickens too .. if a chicken jumps the fence .. it's a free meal for the guard dog. Those fancy devices keep digging into your back pocket .. more batteries etc etc. A good guard dog .. is man's best friend so you don't have to stay up all night with your night goggles on.
I've been using the sprinklers for 2 years now and they do work, my biggest gripe is that if you touch the sprinklers or move them they will start leaking a the hose connection and you will have to shutoff water to screw it.. wish they would get better connectors
I had a lot of spare time one day and I came up with something kind of similar but I wanted to put pointing towards somebody's front door that I didn't like
You do such kind things to keep animals from eating your fruit trees. Bing Bing didn't like the system. I'm sad with your temp. 95 we have 30s to 40s here in Colorado with snow on the ground.
Ooh deer! Keep in mind that GOATS are just like deer when it comes to eating the prettiest and tastiest plants and trees first. My goats eat the leaves and finish up with the bark when they escape where they are supposed to stay.
I heard the deer in Florida weren't but as big as a german shepard dog. Will take a lot of them to fill the freezer. Maybe he will let you hunt deer and the giant snakes they have down there now.
Grow some scorpion peppers and blend you some spray ( wear some gloves and gas mask .......Do Not Touch Your eyes, skin, or jewel area or posterior! ) spray you outer borders and do a couple zones coming into your garden and apply liberally.
Lol 😄 Great idea. Bing Bing was truly testing the devices response time. Too bad deer work the late shift. It would be more convenient if they took the 1st or 2nd shifts.😊 Great video 👩🏾🌾
Great video! I live in Gainesville- deer, raccoons and squirrels love us and our fruit trees. We’ve tried the water deterrent but we kept getting sprayed more than the varmits. Our lab never figured out where the water was coming from. Maybe we’ll try it again!
May The Lord Bless you and Keep you....Sis and Bro....
❤❤❤
Love that Dog. 10:37
Hahahahahaha this was informative and entertaining! Bing Bing was protecting you all down the line. Love it!
Nancy I don't know how you kept from laughing. Bing Bing was so cute.
I love that BingBing just keeps setting it off.
Thank you both and Bing Bing too. The sprinkler idea has given me new hope for my garden. God bless ya'll.
Thank you for the video

Have found this to deter deer also.
I'm very much enjoying your videos
Thanks for sharing your Deer Deterrent Device that works.
LOL! Thanks for trying it out and bless little Bing Bing for trying to protect you. Hey, they sound like rattlesnakes besides!
That’s nice Angel ty for this video ❤

@@cintie45 Have fun. We survived there nearly 5 years.
Moving next year to a house with a few acres. Thanks for the ideas, they will surely come in handy!
Thanks Nanc and Hollic. I appreciate your videos.

Hope you got you tomatoes seeded? I'm in South FL and have a few nice Tobasco plants for the first time.
you got my wifes vote, she thought it said beer deterent
🤣
God bless ya guys!
Bing Bing is such a sweet dog. 🐶✝️
Very good idea and the little boy have a friend to play, blessings.

Glad you enjoy it!

Bingbing, was a great spokedoggie for this vlog, can we have more video of Bingding? thanks
Yes, he is a little show off🐶
OOHF, THAT ONE GOT ME! Who could watch him walk back and forth for hours, thanks for the ideas!
Awesome great deterrent funny to.
Oh my gosh! I laughed at you and little Bing Bing. I don't know how Nancy kept from lol! We have deer issues, so this is good idea and the soap also.
🐶❤️

We have ones that lasted over 4 years

The best part is the minute you walked the walk to see if it works. (Looked like fun!) You could have just sent bing bing!💖😀
Water defense system! I sure hope this works great for you guys!
You got my attention when you said squirrels! But it would need to be lower with a lot of psi!😂

why not some steel post and good wire? God bless. lol Bing Bing is a hoot--love it.
Great ideas I thinking you had to run either hoses or a pipeline?
Yes, hoses👍
Does the soap trick work for detering rabbits too?
Unfortunately, no

You'll have to set up a video with a deer getting hit and running. Thanks for all the great tips.
Will do
We have fruit trees too but it is busy here that the deer don't come in out yard 🍁🍁🍁
Loving Bing Bing!! :D
Spoiled rotten but deserve it.
I've been using the sprinklers for 2 years now and they do work, my biggest gripe is that if you touch the sprinklers or move them they will start leaking a the hose connection and you will have to shutoff water to screw it.. wish they would get better connectors
Wonderful.
I need these to keep my chickens out of my garden
I use a radio,an electric fence,and a rifle. I have more trouble out of skunks than you would think. Central NC.
“Oooo right in the butt!” I laughed so hard. I use these too, for the neighbor’s cats that won’t stay out of my garden and keep spraying on my deck. 😒
😂😂
I THANK GOD FOR YOU BOTH INCLUDING BING-BING?, I SEE YOU GROWING THAT WISDOM ON YOUR CHIN LOOKS GREAT... STAY SAFE AND BLESS❤
I had a lot of spare time one day and I came up with something kind of similar but I wanted to put pointing towards somebody's front door that I didn't like
Thank you for this I think this will work with the raccoon not sure but I’m gonna give it a try I’m pretty sure it’ll work with the cats and the dogs
You do such kind things to keep animals from eating your fruit trees. Bing Bing didn't like the system. I'm sad with your temp. 95 we have 30s to 40s here in Colorado with snow on the ground.
Very cool! Do you know of a solar powered one? If not how long do your batteries tend to last?
My batteries last over a year
Does the Irish Spring Soap work for squirrels and chipmunks?
It does not
well, Bing Bing loves the sprinklers lol, new toy yeah lol :)
❤️🐶❤️
Those are cool need them for cats
Ooh deer! Keep in mind that GOATS are just like deer when it comes to eating the prettiest and tastiest plants and trees first. My goats eat the leaves and finish up with the bark when they escape where they are supposed to stay.
That can be so frustrating 😡
Ain't no such thing as having too much fun!!!
lol crazy dog . ❤😊👍
Now that is cool but I can't imagine that little thing breaking plastic or something and you coming back to a $300 water bill.
Is it still working thanks
Yes, working very well for us
TY.
All you gotta do is call me I'll fill your freezer for ya 😂😂😂😂😂
I heard the deer in Florida weren't but as big as a german shepard dog. Will take a lot of them to fill the freezer. Maybe he will let you hunt deer and the giant snakes they have down there now.

Bing-Bing is funny😂
🐶
I would never have recognized you with your beard and long hair. Sorry about the deer problem
Beard and long hair is all gone now👍
Show us how to hunt
Another thing that works is Coyote urine. It will attract Coyotes so may not be good for everyone. Use caution with small pets. God bless
Great video! I live in Gainesville- deer, raccoons and squirrels love us and our fruit trees. We’ve tried the water deterrent but we kept getting sprayed more than the varmits. Our lab never figured out where the water was coming from. Maybe we’ll try it again!
What happened to your elbow?
Not sure where y'all at in Florida deer and bear are bad in the state but I'm near Ocala forrest and believe me I know what ya talking about
We are near Ocala. We are in Orange Springs. Lots of deer and bear!!
12 for the ground critters 300 for the big game...Those sprinklers are garbage but we do have the cleanest deer in the country.😂😂🤣😂
We have used them for two years with success.
@@HollisNancysHomestead Could just be we live by the coast and there use to the wind and rain 😂
Ha ha ha ha!! Oooh!
Lol, 👍🏻😎
Just get a deer feeder
