So far, my 59 cent shiney plastic toy pinwheel is working well. I also purchased a much larger version of the same thing from "Big Lots" that looks like a big flower, and also spins whenever there's a breeze. The larger one is protecting corn and the smaller one is near my strawberries.

You bet those Pin Wheels work...the deer just love my baby maple trees; came out 1 morning and all the leaves on 1 of my maple babies was totally gone plus all the tender grape leaves off my newly planted plant. So off I went and bought 6 pin wheels and 'planted' all of them by my maple trees and grape plant. I also cut Irish Spring soap in half and layed it at the base of all my pin wheels. Haven't missed a single leaf since...knock, knock :-) Both my grape plant and the maple tree are leafing out again.
