| I am thinking about getting the heavy duty mesh deer fence from Gardeners Supply to put around my backyard. I plan to use tall trees and some stakes to support them. I have a few questions before I take the plunge since they are expensive, almost $90. First one is of course do they work. I plan to use tall trees and some stakes to support them. Secondly, how easy is it to install them. And lastly, my husband is really paranoid about fences looking bad... he wants the whole natural look... so how do you think they look? Thanks in advance! |

| I don't have a deer problem only a rabbit problem which requires a less obtrusive fence. I finally installed fencing around roses, garden and other "delicious" plants after trying numerous other deterrents. The question of fence/no fence is a matter of how much of a problem the deer present. In your case the question is what is at the top of the list: The natural look or my plants? |

| Oh, forgot to mention, after a year or so you won't even notice the fence. It is all about how the brain perceives things after awhile. |
