Thank you for reporting this comment. Deer love tomato plants. And they can be very bold, they will walk right up next to the house and eat yew or rhododendron foundation plantings, as well as any tomato plants or other goodies they find. You need a high fence or some other deterrent to keep them out.
Deer destroy gardens by feeding on plant leaves, stems and roots. Fortunately, catnip, chives, dill, garlic, lavender, onion, oregano, rosemary, sage, spearmint and thyme keep deer away from your garden, lawn and shrubbery. While people find the smell of these herbs pleasant, deer dislike their odor and give areas planted with them a wide berth.
