I had wood hyacinths,/Hyacinthoides hispanica/, intermixed with Virginia bluebells, /Mertensia virginica/. Both multiplying prolifically. Deer would come along, nip the tip off the emerging wood hyacinths, then saunter off, leaving interesting square tipped leaves. But never really ate them. Just sort of sampled. Last year the Virginia bluebells made their typical appearance. But not a single wood hyacinth. All gone. And there were masses of them, as you can see with this image from a previous year. Not here this year either. So I cannot tell you how to kill them. Apparently mine just suicided on their own.
