Protecting your garden from deer | Keeping Deer Out

Protecting your garden from deer | Keeping Deer Out

I love deer and love to watch them as long as they do not eat my veg patch, to stop this we have designed some kits with you guys in mind and some input from returning customers for Keeping Deer Out.

We have had a few calls over the last months regarding keeping deer out of newly seeded gardens, off new and mature hedges and new houses moves where you have just put a lovely boarder out and over night it has been munched. Many of you have asked about an alternative to netting due to the area you need covering, length of area and just not wanting netting.

So together we have designed 4 kits for you to look at (we can do bespoke kits if you need them longer or have specific requirements - extra gateways etc..). As well as our much loves netting.

We have spoken to one of our fence technical guys and he recommended the use of rope to keep deer away from your garden/veg patches/ hedges for shorter distances and for longer distances more lines and the use of rope and wire.

4 and 6 Lined kits

The rope we have chosen is idea - it has 3 copper plated and 2 stainless steel conductors, low resistance of 0.39 ohms, fully UV protected and 187kg breaking strain

Deer electric netting

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here is a video of electric fencing in action against deer. As you can see the 4 lines are very effective at keeping these deer away as they have checked the fencing out 1st before jumping it and since it has given them a zap they will not approach it again from that place, they may well try further down to make sure the same thing happens before they change their grazing patterns for good.

Netting

Deer electric netting

Netting is a very effective way to exclude many animals from your veg patch or property, Netting is best for shorter distances and not recommended use for red deer. With netting you will keep the deer out but also the rabbits will steer clear as well, it is good to note if you do also have rabbits keep the netting on at all times ( well unless you are working in the fenced areas or in the garden ) as the wee blighters might chew your netting if it is not left on.
