My partner-in-crime in this endeavor suggested, along the lines of the providing more easily accessible water idea, installing a low pressure drain at the bottom of the system, so after the irrigation shuts off, all of the water in the overhead lines drains into a basin for them.
Although, kyle, as you mentioned, I'm concerned that this just attracts more and compounds the issue.
I like the idea of the heavier duty irrigation... PVC or metal pipes.
Any other input is welcome!
Wes, I'm challenged with a similar problem and considering both providing more supply, as well as doing some type of deterrent or armor on the lines. I was wondering -- did you try anything, and can you share any specifics on failure or success now that you are a year out from this post?
Thanks!
Neil
