Swanson also gave other options of keep deer out of certain areas of town. After a discussion and input from the public the council decided to hold off on a city deer hunt. They decided to go with a suggestion of Swanson of having residents used a scented wick available from the SDGFP that helps deter deer and are recharged from moisture.
