Plantskydd Granular Repellant (Deer, Rabbit, Small Animals)

If deer are browsing your orchard or rabbits are clipping plants at ground level, you need protection that works from the soil up. Plantskydd Granular Animal Repellent delivers long-lasting, rain-resistant protection in an easy-to-apply pellet form—ideal for targeting the root zone and lower stems where damage often begins.

Like the liquid formula, Plantskydd Granular is made from natural blood meal and was originally developed to protect Scandinavian forests from heavy wildlife pressure. Today it’s trusted by organic growers, nurseries, vineyards, and regenerative farms who want powerful protection without synthetic chemicals.

This granular version is especially effective for perimeter protection, vole control, and safeguarding young transplants. Pairs it with the liquid formula for full-plant coverage and foliage protection.

Why Use Plantskydd?

• Long-Lasting & Weather Resistant: Granules gradually break down over time, offering extended protection even through rain and irrigation. Ideal for orchards, berry patches, windbreaks, and large beds.
• Ground-Level Protection: Granules are applied around the base of plants, creating a scent barrier that deters deer, rabbits, and voles from feeding at soil level—where young plants are most vulnerable.
• OMRI-Listed, Chemical-Free: Safe for use in organic production systems. No synthetic toxins, no harmful residues—just dried blood as a natural deterrent aligned with soil-first growing practices.

How to Use:

Sprinkle Plantskydd Granular evenly around the base of plants, trees, or shrubs you want to protect. Apply in a band around the drip line or directly at the stem base for young plants. For vole pressure, focus application near runways and around lower trunks. Reapply as needed during periods of heavy browsing or rapid plant growth.

For best results, use in tandem with Plantskydd Liquid: apply the liquid formula to foliage and stems, and the granular around the base. This creates a multi-level defense system that protects both top growth and root zones.

Tips for Best Use:

• Apply at the first sign of browsing—prevention works better than recovery.
• Reapply after heavy rainfall or when granules have fully broken down.
• Combine with the liquid formula for full-plant protection.
• Protect new plantings immediately after transplanting.
• Focus on outer rows or perimeter plantings for larger gardens and orchards.
• Store in a dry location to maintain effectiveness.
