The National Gardening Association Editors report that, on a long term basis, fencing is the best way to keep domestic and wild animals out of your garden. They offer the following suggestions and tips: - Fences are most effective when the animal can't see what the fence protects - food. A solid fence will block their view of the delectable offerings of your garden.  - Polypropylene fences are less visible than solid fences, but they will not give protection from all animals. - Electric fences will not block your view of the garden. They can be more effective than solid fences, especially if the would-be poachers know the wires are hot. Animals are not likely to test the fence more than once. **Build the fence that pertains to the animals you want to keep out of your garden:**                              **        Deer** > A tall fence is necessary. A mesh, solid or an electric fence can be effective. There are many design options available. Be sure to anchor the fence to the ground. Deer will also go under a fence if given the option.                                                                                                                                     > **Cats and dogs** > Build a 3-foot high wire fence - buy a 5-foot roll and bend 24" at the bottom of the fence to the outside of the garden to form an apron. This will discourage digging. > **Rabbits **  > A 2-foot high chicken wire fence with 1" hexagonal mesh openings is recommended. Buy a 3-foot high roll and bend a 12" apron of the fence mesh to the outside of the garden. Bury it several inches deep to prevent digging. > **Woodchucks**                                                                                        > A 4-foot high fence with a 24" buried apron works well. They suggest leaving the top 18" of the fence unattached to posts. This will challenge the animals' climbing ability. You can also string an electrified wire along the top. Placing electric fencing a few inches outside the other fence is even more effective. To protect prized plants from these tunneling pests, bury a protective wire mesh basket two to three feet underground.  > **Raccoons & Opossums**  > You need fencing that provides an underground barrier and is difficult to climb. Use a 60" to 72" fence. Bury a 24" horizontal apron several inches underground on the outside of your garden. Leave the top 18" of the 36" or 48" high fence unattached. This will bend over as the animal climbs, preventing it from getting over the top. If you have difficulty finding 60" or 72" high fence, the apron and vertical parts can be two different rolls. Be sure to fasten the two edges together with hog rings or tie wire. For further security, electric fence wire can be run along the top. Spreading light weight netting on the ground around your garden may discourage these animals from approaching the fence.                                                                                                        > **Coyotes**  > An electric fence in combination with a strong 48" fence mesh, such as [sheep and goat fence](https://www.louispage.com/fences/sheep-goat-animals), works well. Place one electrified wire 8" off the ground, 6" to 18"away from the mesh fence. An additional wire strung along the top of the fence will discourage jumping.                                          > **Bears**  > They can be discouraged from entering an area by using electric fence. Bait, such as bacon strips or pork rind, should be attached to the wires. Bears will approach the bait, touch it with a wet nose or tongue and learn the characteristics of the fence. They will want to avoid it in the future. If the fence is not baited, a bear is likely to crash through the fence, paying no more attention to the shock than it would a bee sting. A 36" to 48" roll of chicken wire secured to the ground with ground staples can also be used as an effective barrier. Be sure to keep the area mowed. Do the solutions the editors suggest sound good to you? Do you have other suggestions to share based on your own experience?

Spacing between the vertical wires is 6". Horizontal wires are 1" apart (1" x 6" openings) at the bottom and 4" apart (4" x 6" openings) at the top. The horizontal wires are crimped to allow for expansion and contraction. Deer and Orchard, Poultry and Garden fence is woven using 14-1/2 gauge galvanized wire. Heavier 11 gauge galvanized wires are used for the top and bottom wires. The rolls feature hinge-joint construction. These flexible joints help the fence conform to uneven terrain.  Rolls are available in three sizes: > > - **48" x 165'  -  87 pounds** > > - **60" x 165'  -  105 pounds** > > - **72" x 165'  -  120 pounds** If you want to protect your animals and your plantings using an economical fence with a unique design, consider Deer and Orchard - Poultry and Garden Fence.     [![Deer sprinting and leaping through field](https://images.pexels.com/photos/2570169/pexels-photo-2570169.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&dpr=1&w=500)](https://www.louispage.com/fences/deer-wildlife)     [Read More](https://www.louispage.com/blog/bid/9578/poultry-garden-deer-orchard-fence) Topics: [woven wire](https://www.louispage.com/blog/topic/woven-wire), [garden fence](https://www.louispage.com/blog/topic/garden-fence), [poultry fence](https://www.louispage.com/blog/topic/poultry-fence) ## [Wire Mesh For Your Garden Fence](https://www.louispage.com/blog/bid/8510/wire-mesh-for-garden-fencing) April 21, 2009 | by [Duncan Page](https://www.louispage.com/blog/author/duncan-page) [![Shoveling dirt in garden](https://images.pexels.com/photos/296230/pexels-photo-296230.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&dpr=1&w=500)](https://www.louispage.com/welded-wire-mesh/galvanized-after-gaw) **A Protected Garden makes for a Happy Gardener** There are many different wire meshes that make excellent garden fencing. Fences that will protect your gardens from the ravages of animals both large and small. Meshes that will help your garden grow. **Welded wire** garden fences come in different combinations of mesh size and wire gauge. They are available in three finishes: 1. **Galvanized Before Weld** (**GBW**) meshes are the least expensive and will not last as long as the other two. When the galvanized wire is welded, the rust resisting zinc is burned off where the wires intersect. Moisture will collect at these vulnerable points. Rust begins and the fence gradually weakens. 2. **Galvanized After Weld** (**GAW**) meshes are more costly initially, but their long lifetime can eliminate the expense and hassle of replacement. Following the welding process, the fence is drawn through a bath of molten zinc. The wire *and* the weld joints are thoroughly coated. 3. **Vinyl Coated** (**VC**) meshes feature both long life and a more aesthetically pleasing appearance. Once the fence is welded, the PVC vinyl is tightly bonded to the wire as it passes through a heat process. Black is becoming the preferred color choice. It blends with the background, becoming virtually invisible. Your enclosed area can be clearly seen. **A variety of meshes and gauges available:** **1/4" x 1/4"** - 23 gauge - GAW and VC  **1/2" x 1/2"** - 19 and 16 gauges - GBW, GAW and VC **1/2" x 1"** - 16 and 14 gauges - GBW, GAW and VC[![welded wire garden fence](https://www.louispage.com/hs-fs/file-13063977-jpg/images/welded_wire_garden_fence-resized-600.jpg?width=366&name=welded_wire_garden_fence-resized-600.jpg)](https://www.louispage.com/welded-wire-mesh/vinyl-coated-vc) **1" x 1"** - 16, 14 and 12-1/2 gauges - GBW, GAW and VC **1" x 2"** - 14 gauge - GBW, GAW and VC **1-1/2" x 1-1/2"** -12-1/2 and 10-1/2 gauges - GAW and VC **3" x 2"** - 16 gauge - VC **1-1/2" x 4"** -14 gauge - VC **2" x 4"** - 14 and 12-1/2 gauges - GBW and VC **Woven wire** garden fences are also available in the same three finishes.
