Default Best way to pick up deer poop off your lawn?

Any suggestions?

My new house is fairly close to the river and there is a small crab apple tree in my yard. The deer seem to love this tree. How do I know, even though I've yet to see a dear in my yard? Because they leave presents on the lawn each time they visit.

Here is a pic... although its not one of my piles but it basically looks the same...

I can't believe you actually posted a picture of seer sh*t to illustrate your point. I also can't believe you went out of your way to explain that, although that picture isn't of the sh*t piles in your yard, it looks the same as the deer sh*t piles in your yard.

LOL

I posted it because the deer poop is mixed in with the grass and it would be kind of difficult to just get a shovel and scoop it up.
Also, I suspect not everyone knows what deer poop looks like.... little pellets so you can't use a grass rake because the stuff will just go through the tines and you will just end up spreading it over a larger area.

As for the pic... I didn't have time to take a pic myself so I grabbed one off the internet....

Why do you have such a problem with this? Don't you have anything better to do in your life than bitch at me?

Nope. Definitely deer poop. I've done a lot of deer hunting and its definitely deer crap.

If they give you trouble, just turn it around on them. Deer are not cute things in your yard.

For a task that requires such fine dexterity, I'd recommend using your mouth.

Put up a sign that says "Free Blueberries" and allow people to pick them.
