Deer Devouring Gardens in Woodstock | Washington DC News

Deer are turning backyard gardens into buffet zones—especially in Woodstock, where a historic home’s years of landscaping is being devoured. It’s not just one house; experts link the surge to habitat loss, drought, and deer’s natural hunger cycles. These animals are simply seeking easy meals when wild food disappears. The fix? Plant deer-resistant species, use companion planting, and explore coexistence strategies—because fences aren’t always feasible, especially in historic neighborhoods.
