We firmly believe the application of Plantskydd gave us a decent sunflower harvest for wintertime bird feeding!
We attribute at least a 30% improvement in yield on the 1,000 acres that were treated with the product in this operational trial. This represents well over $1 million
“Once Plantskydd is applied, the damage virtually stops and so long as a follow up application is made 10-14 days later, the vines get through the critical phase.”
Damage to the trees was dramatically reduced immediately after the first application of Plantskydd and complete control was achieved once adequate coverage was achieved. By the end of summer, browse damage from deer was virtually eliminated.
New Dwarf Apple Trees, 2013, 2014, 2015 We planted 101 new dwarf apple trees this year (2013) and they came out so well, we plan on putting in another 200 next year. We are in Northern Vermont and we have more than our share of deer. An orchardist friend of mine told me I’d never… Read More
The application really reduced deer feeding at that point as the deer left the fields for about 10 days. Rainfall was minimal during that period. The soybeans were able to recover and develop substantial leaf growth. The deer damage in untreated strips in the field was eliminated as well.
Plantskydd is used by farmers and orchardists to protect from animal browse damage the following crops: Soybeans, corn, grapes, fruit/nut trees, blueberries, cauliflower, cotton, pumpkins, strawberries, vegetables, watermelon and more.
Crops like Soybeans and Cotton need to be protected right out of the ground. The first application must be made shortly after emergence.
Unlike other repellents that quickly lose their effectiveness after irrigating or rainfall, Plantskydd is rain and snow resistant. It does not require immediate re-application after irrigation or rainfall.

We expreienced a 30% increase in yield — representing well over $1 million!
Plantskydd will definitely be included in our plans next year and we will likely use it on more acreage where we suspect underperforming sites.

Overview: 155 acre vineyard planted in stages over the last few years, with deer now roaming throughout. Deer damage has become intolerable, especially on the youngest 50 acres. Riparian zones run through the property making fencing impractical.

Plantskydd is exempt from federal EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) pesticide registration. Plantskydd contains no synthetic additives, is non-toxic and is not harmful to animals, plants or the environment.
The ‘active’ ingredient is dried bloodmeal — recognized by the EPA as an environmentally safe ingredient.
In the United States, *bloodmeal* is an EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) exempted product/minimum risk pesticide and is exempt from the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act requirements, specifically under Section 25(b) c.f. Federal Register, 61(45), Mar. 6, 1996 and therefore is not subject to federal registration.
