Repels-All Animal Repellent Concentrate - 32 Ounces

Appears to work, although must allow a week or so to be certain

You need to reapply during the season about weekly. Works well without staining. Much cheaper to mix and refill the spray bottle than to buy a spray bottle every time.

I’ve used this repellent in both liquid and the granules. The liquid works great. The granules didn’t seem to work as well. Warning: This stuff does smell horrible!!!! Once applied, I find the smell will disappear enough to not be offensive to humans.

I've been using this for several years, with all in all good results for repelling deer. It will wash off- I live in California, where it usually rains very little during the growing season, but this could be a problem with this (and most) repellents in a lot of places. As you might expect, it has a high solid content and will clog sprayers if you don't clean them regularly- spraying some water through them will usually do the trick. The "All" part I can't swear to; I used it for raccoons once, and it seemed to work, but I took other steps too. It definitely does NOT repel flies. The smell is pretty repulsive, but dies down to levels that don't bother humans once it dries. For deer, at least, it's a good idea to switch repellents periodically; they can get used to smells.

Dogs were attracted to the smell. Cats ignored the smell. My beds have all become litter boxes for the feral cats.

When this stuff arrived, I took the lid off to smell it, wondering if it was spicy or what the scent was that it would detract animals away from my garden. LAWD ALMIGHTY, do NOT do this!!!! I about threw the bottle across the yard. It is literally the worst thing I have ever smelled. It’s like a mixture of rotten eggs, dog poop, and week old road kill. I about keeled over the entire time spraying all of my garden spaces, but told myself it was worth it if it would keep my chickens out of my mulch. I then gleefully admired my flowers without the stupid wire fences I had to keep around them (but from inside, because now my entire yard smelled of the rotten egg/dog poop/road kill concoction). The next morning I ran to town, and by the time I got back, my mulch was scattered everywhere by the chickens because this stuff apparently has no affect on a chicken’s sense of smell. So not only did I waste my money on a product that didn’t work, my entire yard smelled so bad that you couldn’t stay outside longer than absolutely necessary until it finally rained. Don’t waste your money.
