Folks... I already bought two plastic pairs of the stick on whisles and they fell off. I think I'll just screw on my hood deer or bull antlers with a St Frances medal hanging between them, hand paint a growling mouth with sharp teeth there too. Hang Mezzuzas on the side doors, get a horn that makes animal sounds, spot lights on both sides, and on top, and drive slow.

i retired after 20yrs driving truck.. i have as soon as they came out with them used deer wistles.. they work great! i have actually seen heards of antilope run away as i aproached. they work on most animals.. i run them on my pick up now.. i was driving from here n. az to powell wyo often.. even during hunting season or at dusk&dawn i never even had a close call. i will always run them. there are some that are better then others. i payed $19.00 for mine and bought them at the truck stop.

I'm not concerned about my truck. A truck can be replaced. A life cannot. I have a soft spot when it comes to animals. Hell, I don't even kill spiders or other bugs that are in the house. I catch and release outside. I just believe every living thing has just as much right to life as I do...except parasites. Thanks for the tip on autozone.

We have deer all over our hillside town. There are deer trails just a few feet from our back deck, so we see them day in and day out. They walk down the street in the middle of the day, and hang in yards and driveway. Most of the time they get out of the way of cars, but sometimes I have to stop, roll down the window, and talk sweetly to them to get them to move. It would never occur to me to honk or flash my lights; sweet talk does the trick.

Side story. We tend toward only deer-resistant plants in non-fenced areas, because anything else becomes an all-they-can-eat buffet. One afternoon several of us were out putting in new plants in our front yards. An older doe strolled up the middle of the street, stopping at each yard and having a long careful look around to see what we were all planting. I'm quite sure that she was taking notes!!!

I thought I would resurrect this thread since it’s about that time for the deer’s Fall breeding season. They’ll be moving about more than usual in the upcoming months. Just a reminder. They travel in family groups and single file so just because one passed safely in front of you does not mean the danger has been avoided. Be alert while driving and use highbeams at night when possible. I also have a request. Please don’t post about wildlife that you’ve hit or seen hit. I’d rather not know. Tips and strategies on avoiding a collision with wildlife are encouraged. Have a safe Fall.

Sounds like many butches I've known...(thank God for small favors!! ;))

Thanks for bumping the thread, we have lot's of cute deer in Nashville I would like to avoid hitting.

Are the whistles hard to install?

If they're what I'm thinking of, they're actually just stuck on with double sided tape.

Dear Drivers;

On Friday when it was raining and you could clearly see that the right lane was a giant lake and the left lane was not only puddle-free but CAR-FREE...maybe it would have been nice of you to drive in the left lane and not repeatedly spray puddle water at me. It was really irritating when I had to spend more time using my umbrella as a shield against your splashes than against the actual rain falling from the sky.

You are all assholes.

Love,

Brandy

No, they are very easy, just make sure the surface of your bumper is clean and dry, before peeling and sticking them on.

All; Did u ever hear a deer commit suicide like Blade just said? Whisles need cleaning inside alot and be put where the brushes in the car wash can't take them off like in front of the radiator.
