5. Use soap

Believe it or not, soap isn’t an ingredient that only helps you keep your body and your home clean, but it’s also a fantastic ingredient when it comes to keeping wild animals away from your gorgeous garden.

Chipmunks, rabbits, mice, and deer hate the clean smell of soap, and if you spread some soap bars around your garden, they’re more likely to keep their distance.

If you’re afraid that the soap might hurt your plants, you can dispose of a couple of bars in some drawstring pouches and hang them around your pretty garden. This tip is simple to incorporate, affordable, and effective! Try it and let us know what you think because I believe it’s one of the best ways to keep wild animals away!
