Stockings Recycle for Garden Use as Ties and Deterrents
Nylon stockings and pantyhose can be cut into diagonal tie strips to support vines and tomatoes as they grow without damaging stems. Cut feet into bags filled with Milorganite to deter deer and hang on plants. Fragrance from cologne or bath oil can render strips water repellent and odor stays after rain. If unavailable, unwashed nylon strips work as well.
