Effective fences need to be tall— maybe 8 foot. A less expensive effective repellent useful from frost to frost in zone 5 is a motion detector impact sprinkler. Repositioned every 2-3 weeks, it frightens deer, raccoons, and other uninvited guests. Mine can be set for night only, day only, on all the time and off. It can also deliver 30 minutes of watering with the push of a button. Runs on batteries—several 1.5 volt does the trick, and several can be run off the same single hose bib.
