Try spraying it with deer repellent, you can find it on Amazon. Not sure what they make with, maybe a synthetic coyote pee.
Most of the repellants are egg whites and red pepper. Coyote urine will do it too but is more expensive. The commercial fungicide Daconil used to be listed as a repellant and works real good. It is not listed for that use anymore.
My wife, the Polish Princess, has an aversion to anything that walks or crawls that isn't human. If she sees a deer in the yard it's "GET THE GUN!". I asked her Majesty, once, why we located her castle in Exurbia, where all the critters are free to roam and seem to be an enjoyable experience for most. I got the Royal Look. :R
