Hi Permies!
I'm in Upstate New York, and looking to get some electric fencing to protect new plantings from
deer.
Hoping some folks here have
experience with some options available in the US Northeast and can share your experience with the pros/cons, as well as suppliers?
We want the
fence to be
1. easy to set up
2. solid
enough to stand for 3-6 years without too much maintenance (other than trimming weeds and checking on the energizer)
3. Able to be removed and used elsewhere without a ton of work.
We don't want to spend a TON of time and effort erecting a permanent 7-ft
fence, and then taking it down.
It is OK if once in a while the deer decide to jump the fence and kill a couple of plants. We're fencing in something like 100 young
trees here, so the loss of a few is worthwhile in exchange for not having to overbuild the fence.
Thanks for sharing your experience, and any recommendations for good suppliers would be very welcome.
Thank you!
