“Invisible” Fence Keeps Deer Out
The beauty of Critterfence is that it’s difficult to see. That means it blends in with the landscape so it’s not an eyesore, yet keeps deer and other pests out.
  Instead of less expensive flat strand polypropylene, Critterfence uses rounded or semi-rounded strand polypropylene which is less visible, has a higher breaking strength per square foot, lasts longer in sunlight, stretches less, and has a finished edge, according to Doug Korfel of Critterfence.
  And, because it’s all black and there isn’t a visible top rail that deer can see, deer can’t judge the height and won’t try to jump it.
  If deer or other wildlife run into it, they also won’t be caught or injured.
  “No opening size (of the mesh) is greater than 2 in.,” Korfel says.
  For gardeners, Critterfence offers kits that include black fence posts and metal or poly fencing in a variety of heights, lengths and breaking strengths.
  Typically, the 700 series fencing with 650 lbs. breaking strength is suitable for small gardens to keep out deer. Customers often choose 7 1/2-ft. tall fencing, but heights range from 4 to 10 ft. tall.
  One benefit of the kits is how easy it is to install thanks to no-dig ground sleeves for line posts, post braces, corner posts and gate installation. No concrete or digging is required, and posts lock in place with a locking set screw.
  Check out the website to see the variety of options available, or call and customer service will help find the right fence for your needs.
