Bonide Repels-All Animal Repellent Granules, 3 lbs. Ready-to-Use Deer & Rabbit Repellent, Deter Pests from Lawn & Garden

Alright, folks, buckle up because I'm about to tell you about the magical, critter-banishing unicorn dust known as Bonide Repels-All Animal Repellent Granules. If my backyard were a nightclub, these granules would be the bouncer, and let me tell you, they don’t let any uninvited guests past the velvet rope!For years, my garden was basically the salad bar at a wildlife rave party—squirrels, rabbits, chipmunks, you name it. If it was fluffy and had a pulse, it was chomping through my petunias like they were going out of style. Enter Repels-All, my knight in granular armor. One month down, and not a single bloody squirrel or its freeloading friends has dared to crash my garden gala.This stuff must be packing some sort of olfactory nightmare that sends these critters packing to therapy. The label says it irritates their nasal passages, and honestly, I imagine it’s like walking into a perfume store and getting blasted by every scent at once. Whatever’s in it, it triggers their "Oh heck no!" instincts.And the animals it repels? It’s like reading Noah’s Ark’s blacklist—squirrels, deer, rabbits, even that skunk that thought my backyard was his personal bachelor pad. Not anymore, Pepe Le Pew!Applying it around my fortress of solitude—aka my suburban homestead—was easier than convincing my dog that the vet isn’t a serial killer. Just sprinkle your magic critter-chasing dust around your gardens, garbage cans, and, unless you’re into live-action Disney movies, your bird feeders.Plus, the stuff is biodegradable! So not only am I keeping Bambi and Thumper out of my veggie patch, but I’m also not hurting the planet. Talk about an eco-friendly guilt-free solution!I’m planning my next sprinkle-down in two months, setting a reminder on my phone and everything. It’s like setting a date to renew an anti-critter restraining order. And believe me, with how peaceful my garden’s been, I might just throw a little sprinkle party with a side of barbecue.So, if you're tired of hosting the Animal Planet after-party in your backyard, get yourself a bag of Bonide Repels-All. It’s like telling all those furry freeloaders, "You SHALL NOT pass!" Go forth and protect your green kingdom, my fellow garden warriors!

Smells weird but seems to work. I applied a little while back after noticing some squirrel dig holes in my raised beds. Liberally to the area around the beds Not In The Garden. Nothing has dug in there since but there are a few holes outside of the area I treated so I feel like it's working. Easy to apply easy to ignore and hopefully effective? So far so good, likely to continue use!

I’m sure this product works great for most people but just not in my case. I have sprinkled the contents around flower beds and even in the flow pots three times over the past 6 weeks but the young deer are not deterred. They have chomped on the petunias and hostas like a bowl full of salad. Back to the drawing board.

Haven't seen any rabbits in my garden since sprinkling this around it. So far so good.

I was having trouble with rodents digging in my flower pots.

Very dusty material. When you drop it on your lawn, the wind blows it all over the place. Stinky, dusty, and messy.It would be better if the material was in pellet form. I like the container, but with how dusty the material is, it's a mess to apply.

Pungent smell. The product is like the consistency of salt. I put it down while away. My foliage was still there when I got home.👌🏾

Does not last "up to 2 months" as container states. I've ordered it 2x as I think I didn't sprinkle enough around plants. My 2nd order (12/2024, 3lbs) is empty as I applied more this time (reapplied after rain) - unfortunately, my non-deer resistant plants are gone too. Trying something different.
