Mint is another effective natural deer repellent. Mint plants can even be grown in close proximity to deer-loving plants. Mint plants can discourage deer from living in certain areas because of their strong scent. Peppermint and spearmint are the most powerful mint varieties. These plants will attract bees as well as butterflies, in addition to repelling deer. They have strong scents that deer can't stand. The smell of mint plants is not only pleasant to humans, but deer will stay away from your garden if you use them to deter them.
