Fertilizer


Every winter the deer hang around our yard eating anything and everything available...bushes, tree bark, leafy ground cover and grass. So it was no surprise to see piles of marble-sized deer droppings all over the front lawn this spring. If I left them where they lay I'd end up with spots of especially green grass, since they are a good fertilizer. So, a couple of weeks ago I went around to each pile and with a swift kick of the foot sent the little brown marbles flying. The lawn is looking pretty good now and almost ready to mow! I like free fertilizer.

Whenever I broke up with some boyfriend in high school Mom always used to say that I had sent him down the road kicking turds. I had lots of practice. So I think I would be good at helping you fertilize your yard with those little brown pellets.
