Hi all,
I found some similar stuff at Ace hardware last year. I don't think it
was as expensive, but then again I may not have bought a 100' roll. Check
out your local hardware stores. It worked very well for me. I did leave
the gate open at one point this winter, and a deer took off through the
fence when our dog saw it. And then it all came down when we had an ice
storm.
The directions recommended taking it down when not in use, it will break
down over time. But I pulled a Stan and left it up! :) I stapled it to 8'
oak stakes, but I imagine you could twister-tie it up, or use twine or
something so removal would be easier. No deer tried to go under the fence
and since we also have voracious bunnies i had chicken wire around the
bottom.
All in all I was pleased with the mesh fence. It was pretty invisible,
too.
