    Hi All, I started using 'Grazers' a few months ago to keep the rabbits and deer from eating bedding plants, roses, etc. (It's a systemic spray which makes plants unpalatable to animals, but is, I understand, non-toxic and safe to use on food crops.) So far, so good - it has worked very well up to now, and I'm really pleased. What I'm wondering is, will it work all year round, when food is scarce? And as the instructions tell me to repeat the spray every six weeks, will it be as effective when plants aren't actively growing? Has anyone got experience of using it for over a year?

    Thanks BB, this is a useful link, and I have looked at this before. What I'd like to hear though is independent opinions that don't come from the manufacturer, as it's not always exactly the same story. Grazers seems to work very well, but I hesitate to recommend it on such short experience. IS there a downside (apart from price)?
