1. Hardware Cloth Balanced Utility & Economy: Standard 48x50ft dimensions fit residential needs – sufficient for 200 sq.ft chicken runs or 4x8 raised beds. The 1/2-inch meshes keep away juvenile raccoons while permitting beneficial animals like frogs and lizards.
2. Wire Fencing for Multi-Species Containment: Ideal for pheasant breeding pens, tortoise enclosures, or koi pond predator shields. Also serves as trellis backing for heavy vines (grapes, kiwi) or gabion fill for retaining walls.
3. Chicken Wire with Seasonal Flexibility: Quickly deploy as temporary deer fencing during growing season or frost protection cloches. Galvanization resists corrosion from snow-melt chemicals or acidic pine needles.
4. Wire Mesh with Installation Efficiency: Attach to existing fences using fence clips. For rocky soils, pre-assemble panels with 2x4 frames. Dipping cut ends in zinc paint extends lifespan.
5. Limitation Alert: Not effective against weasels or snakes under 12 inches. Replace after 5 years in constant soil contact.
