A method used by Orchardists in South Carolina to chase deer is also effective, 
but only on deer that still fear humans.  They take the plastic bags that you
buy apples in, (the ones with holes) and put a handfull of human hair (from
the local barbershop floor).  These are not eaten of course, and last for many
months.  They resort to 12 gauge shotguns for those unafraid of humans...
I only endorse the former method, not the latter.
