How Deer Spraying Reduces Deer Droppings on Your Lawn

June 29, 2025

Deer are beautiful creatures, but they can cause significant problems for homeowners when they invade your yard. From grazing on plants to leaving unsightly deer droppings, deer can quickly turn a peaceful garden into a nuisance. If you’ve noticed an increase in deer droppings on your lawn, it’s likely a sign that deer are spending more time in your yard.

In this blog, we’ll explain how deer spraying can help reduce the number of deer visiting your lawn and, consequently, decrease the amount of deer droppings left behind. We'll also discuss why Deer Guys' Deer Repellent Spraying Service is your best solution for maintaining a cleaner, safer lawn free from deer damage.

Why Deer Droppings Are a Problem

While deer droppings may not seem like a significant issue at first, they can present several problems:

  • Unpleasant odors: Deer droppings can create unpleasant smells around your yard, especially when they accumulate in large quantities.
  • Contamination: Deer feces can carry harmful parasites, including deer ticks, which can spread diseases such as Lyme disease to both pets and humans.
  • Unsightly mess: Deer droppings can make your lawn and garden look neglected, especially if they’re scattered across flower beds or along walkways.
  • Attracting pests: Deer droppings can attract other pests, such as rodents, which can cause additional damage to your yard and garden.

While deer may seem harmless, their presence can create a host of problems that affect both the aesthetic and health of your lawn. This is where deer repellent spraying can make a real difference.

How Deer Spraying Helps Reduce Deer Droppings

1. Repels Deer and Prevents Them from Returning

The primary benefit of deer spraying is that it helps repel deer from your property. When applied regularly, deer repellent sprays create an unpleasant environment for deer, making them think twice about entering your yard. This discourages them from returning, thereby reducing the amount of time they spend on your lawn and the likelihood of them leaving droppings behind.

  • Natural repellents: Our weather-resistant spray uses natural ingredients like garlic and peppermint oil, which deer find irritating and unappealing.
  • Safe and effective: Our formula is designed to deter deer without harming your plants, pets, or family, making it an ideal solution for homes with gardens or yards.

By using deer repellent spray, you can discourage deer from frequenting your lawn, which will help keep the number of droppings to a minimum.

2. Creates a Barrier Around Your Property

Deer tend to visit the same areas repeatedly if they find food or shelter there. Deer spraying works as a barrier, applying a scent that repels them from entering your yard altogether. When sprayed around the perimeter of your lawn, this creates a protective zone that deer are unlikely to cross.

  • Strategic spraying: Our team focuses on entry points and vulnerable areas, creating a protective barrier around your entire yard.
  • Long-lasting protection: With reapplication every 3–4 weeks, we ensure that your lawn stays protected year-round, effectively keeping deer—and their droppings—away.

3. Reduces Deer Foraging in Your Yard

Deer are often attracted to areas where they can find food, especially during spring and fall when fresh plants are abundant. Deer spraying not only repels them but also helps reduce foraging by masking the scents of plants they would typically graze on.

  • Less foraging: By preventing deer from feeding on your plants, our repellent also keeps them from sticking around long enough to leave droppings behind.
  • Healthy plants: Our spray encourages deer to stay away from your garden, allowing your plants to grow unscathed, while keeping your yard cleaner and safer.

4. Minimizes Deer Activity and Movement

Deer are often attracted to certain plants and features within your yard. Our professional deer repellent service not only keeps them away from specific plants but also minimizes their overall activity on your property.

  • Reduced movement: By creating an environment that deer find unpleasant, our spraying service helps reduce the deer’s overall movement in and around your yard, cutting down on the chances of them leaving droppings behind.
  • Deer-free zones: Our service creates deer-free zones around your garden, ensuring that your property remains clean and safe from any unwanted visitors.
