Electric
Fence For Deer & Wildlife Control |
|
|
|
|
MAX-FLEX™
permanent electric fence
of
high
tensile smooth wire*
is used to protect orchards, vineyards, gardens and nurseries,
many other crops, and even valuable landscaping.
|
|
Six
strand fence that is five feet tall has proven successful
in most situations if it is built and maintained correctly.
Wire and post spacings must be correct and the wires must
be tight and well electrified at all times.
|
| |
High Tensile Woven Wire
Deer and Game Fence is also used to control wild deer wherever
electric fence is not preferred and when worry free low maintenance
is important. |
|
Portable electric FAST
FENCE™
is quick and easy
to install with fiberglass posts and simple tools. No heavy
work, expensive tools, or long hours are needed. Deer damage
has been controlled temporarily with as few as one or two strands
of electrified
Hot Tape™*.
However, long term success is rarely achieved with less than
four, five, or six strands. The heavier the deer pressure, the
larger the enclosure, and the further it is from human habitation,
the higher the fence should be and the more strands there should
be. |

GARDEN FENCE
For
small animal control only (e.g., raccoons, woodchucks, etc.),
one or two lines of electrified
tape
or wire can be used effectively.
However,
do not expect to control rabbits well with this type of fence
(use fine mesh electric
netting
instead). All wildlife fences perform better if animals are
trained by baiting the wires (by hanging aluminum foil ribbons
from them with an attractive food or odor like peanut butter).
This is especially important for wildlife.
For
this style of garden fence, use M451 short posts (15"x
½") every 10 to 15 feet (or as necessary to follow
the contour of the ground) so that the clip holes will be
4 to 6 inches above ground.

Definitions:
* High tensile smooth wire is a springy galvanized steel wire
that is very strong, and stays really tight when installed correctly.
* Supercote is a larger diameter (0.2 in, 5mm) plastic coated
high tensile wire. It increases fence visibility, is very strong,
and is much less likely to cut animals. An electrifiable version
called Hot Supercote Wire is also available.
* Super Rope is a large diameter plastic cord (0.2 in, 5mm)
with special wire conductors. Easy to install & increases
fence visibility.
* Hot Tape is an electro-plastic tape (0.5 in or 12 mm wide)
with stainless steel conductors that has good visibility and
is lightweight and portable. |
