“How tall will your deer fence be? Around here they can clear 5-6’ without even thinking about it.”
Good question! Thankfully most of our deer are out of shape city dwellers.
Orinally I was planning a simple 5’, 2” x 4” welded wire type with metal posts. Then I found a cool 6’ Deer & Orchard fence with small openings on the bottom third then larger 6” x 6” openings up top, it would be great for the little critters on the bottom, keep the deer out, keep my Siberian husky in.
But can’t find anyone that sells it closer than a 300 mile round trip, they don’t seem to want to ship single rolls.
So I think we’re back to sq one with a 5’ welded wire fence but with cheaper wood posts. I need something that will hold up to snow instead of just netting, etc.
Deer are a concern but gophers are my biggest problem!
If you have gophers and critters that will dig, you can put a 12 to 18" strip of the welded wire on the ground outside the enclosure and hold it down with landscape pins. That works really well.
