"Voodoo Bags" to Deter Deer?

I was reading in today's paper about a lady gardener, Allison Durst, of Vicksburg who made homemade "voodoo bags" to deter deer from her garden that has worked so far. Knee-high stockings are stuffed with 1/2 bar of Irish Spring soap, 1/2 cup of blood meal, human hair from her beautician and dog hair from her pets. These are tied and hung on a piece of bamboo cut from along the edge of her backyard.  This is her own concoction but it seems to be working.  The deer have not raided the garden as they have done in years past.  This may be what it takes to keep deer out of your garden!  Who knew that it would only take a "voodoo bag" to keep the pesky deer away.
