The Importance of Water for Deer: How 'Wild Water® 100' Systems Can Help
Like most animals, deer need a consistent water source to function properly. Deer are in-tune to what their body needs and they know when something isn’t right. If their gut or other body functions feels sub-optimal, they recognize that they don’t feel good and seek out ways to fix it. That’s where the Wild Water® Systems come in. By placing our systems around your property, you’re giving the deer herd consistent access to the water they need and they’ll start to associate your property with vital nutrition.
DIY Watering Hole Installation: How to Keep Deer on Your Land During Summer
We all know deer prioritize food, water and shelter, just like any other living thing. If you don’t have a natural water source on your property you can make your own by digging a hole or by setting up one of our Wild Water Systems. Equip your property with a water source now, during the summer, to bring the deer to your property while it’s hot out. They’ll be seeking more water than they would during the colder months and it gives them the chance to get accustomed to your property before hunting season opens.
