Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about deer control services in West Michigan, MI
Can Deer Solution be used around my family and pets?
Yes! Our all-natural deer repellent is family, pet and environmentally friendly. Our proprietary repellent is made with EPA-designated minimum risk ingredients, including essential oils. For best results, we recommend keeping people and pets indoors during application and while the product dries—usually between 10 and 30 minutes depending on the weather.
How often does my property need to be serviced in West Michigan?
Deer are active all year long, and it is for this reason that we recommend treating your property year-round.
What plants do deer eat most in West Michigan gardens?
In the West Michigan area, deer commonly damage arborvitae, hydrangea, burning bush, euonymus, and taxus yew. These plants are frequently browsed right down to the stems, especially during winter months when other food sources are scarce
Does deer repellent work in West Michigan?
Absolutely. We achieve over 90% effectiveness when maintained on a regular treatment schedule, even in high-pressure areas like Ada and Rockford.
How to stop deer from eating my hydrangea in West Michigan?
Hydrangea is a deer favorite in West Michigan. Our repellent creates an invisible barrier around your plants. Combined with strategic placement of deer-resistant companion plants, we can help significantly reduce browsing damage to your hydrangea.
Do you offer all-natural deer control solutions?
Yes, all of our deer repellent products are all-natural and eco-friendly. Our all-natural proprietary repellent utilizes essential oils and other ingredients that are classified in the EPAs 25b exempt category. Repellents under this category are considered to pose little to no risk to the environment or humans.

Curb the Damage Now!
Deer herds are thriving throughout Grand Rapids, Holland, Muskegon, Rockford, and Lowell and the surrounding region. Homeowners and businesses frequently lose expensive landscaping, perennial beds, and young trees to deer browsing. The impact extends beyond just flowers—trees can struggle to recover from repeated deer damage, requiring homeowners to implement comprehensive shrub protection strategies to preserve their landscape investments. The result is disappointment, added expense, and less curb appeal—season after season.
