The birds can be a PIA, guy down the street uses CDs hanging from fishing line, they blow and turn with the lightest breeze. He is an old man, said they work great. We don't have trouble with the birds so much, last fall they were being a bit of a pain but they only messed up a few tomatoes, considering we had 27 plants last year of different varieties it was not enough to matter really.

About the Deer..... human hair, just take the hair from your hair brush or visit a local barber shop and get some hair, spread it around where you want to keep the deer away from or hang it on the plants, shrubs or trees. Another option to keep deer away is human urine, Bamby simply don't like us human types. Not suggesting you piss on your veggie garden. The Deer thing might not work I guess in some areas, urban deer I expect are subjected to humans more than rural deer. Not a bad industry built around getting rid of the human smell for hunters.
