I got tired of the goats, turkeys, ducks, & chickens crapping all over our front porch, my swing, and the stanchion, but don't have the tools, time, & energy to build a wooden fence & rail around it, so I put a band of chicken wire around the bottom, to keep the smaller critters(& leaves) out. Now, I've also strung it with paracord, and as time, weather, & energy permit, I'm tying it, to make a vaguely nautical net all the way around I'm about halfway done. A book on it probably would have saved me a lot of time & error, and maybe given me a better way to figure out how much cording I'd need!
