Skunks lol,I've trapped and relocated 9 in the last year.wish I could get rid of the deer as they ate all the maple trees I plantedty guys for the info .... it seems to me the only problem i've had was when a skunk kept tryin to uproot 1 on the first night after i put it back in the ground i made sure to stack cinderblocks round em and re put the protective plastic casing round it and ive been kinda watering it a good bit pretty much daily cause its been pretty hot out and @Ashful i kinda love it when i plant my fruit /nut trees that bring in deer
I have a ton of deer, many dozens wandering thru my yard every day, and in fact I'm looking at four as I type this now. I've also planted maple trees, and yes... deer like to both rub them and eat them. But I caged the most recent one with some simple wire fence strung around four stakes, and two years in... no issue. I sized the fence ring to the mulch ring, so no issue with mowing. I probably lift the fence up off the stakes once a month, while running around with the string trimmer on my weekly rounds, but other than that... no maintenance.Skunks lol,I've trapped and relocated 9 in the last year.wish I could get rid of the deer as they ate all the maple trees I planted

i do have a good bit of deer in my area and for whatever reason theyre kinda extremely skittish and tend to stay at least 50 yards away from my house and tend to stay away from my new plantings as well as my 1, 2 and 3 yr old amer chestnuts but they do love 2 hang around my 2 apple trees ..... now the skunks on the other hand i'll give em credit for diggin up a pretty big wasps nest that was in the ground but for the most part the ballsey little buggers like to dig up around some of the trees i just planted and its kinda funny i thought i scared em away for good when i went after em with a broom and got a good whack in or 2I have a ton of deer, many dozens wandering thru my yard every day, and in fact I'm looking at four as I type this now.

I like having skunks. They take care of ground-dwelling yellow jackets, among other things. Of course, my dogs aren't the most likely to tangle with them, I might feel differently if that were the case.
