YARDGARD Chicken Wire 1 Inch Mesh 24 Inch X 150 Foot 20 Gauge Galvanized Steel Wire Fence Ideal for Crafting, Garden Protection, Bird Enclosures, Chicken Coops, Poultry Netting and Rabbit Fencing

I attached T posts to heighten my wood fence by 2 feet. I then attached this plastic poultry wire to it. I did it to try to keep the neighborhood cats, squirrels, possums, raccoons and now urban grey foxes out of our backyard. So far, it seems to mostly work with the squirrels, possums and cats. One raccoon has scaled it. The urban grey foxes don’t try to scale it, but they can easily walk fence lines like a squirrel. So they will scale my neighbors’ fence, walk on top of it, and then jump into our backyard from another location. The foxes hunt and catch small game like mice, rats, and squirrels. I know since I’ve seen it in the fox’s mouth on my ring camera.

The gauge of this chicken wire was very sturdy. Good product

This is nice, light, easy to work with chicken wire. It is 20-gauge wire, so even the 150 ft roll is manageable by one person. We have 500 feet of fencing around our garden and orchard. It is 8 ft high and goes 2 feet into the dirt to stop the diggers. It has strands of electrified wire as well. The fence does a good job of keeping out wildlife, from 600lb bull elks, down to diggers like skunks and rabbits.However, the fence of welded wire was not keeping out the various ground squirrels around here (mountains of Arizona) -- they just step over the lowest electric wire and come right through the fence. They took most of the fruit off a couple of trees before I realized I had to secure the bottom 2 feet of the fence. If they have to climb, there's another electric strand they will contact, and the shock will drive them away. So I'm adding this Yardgard "chicken" mesh to the bottom portion of the fence. It has to conform to the existing heavier wire fencing, so it's good that this product is light and flexible. Where required -- where there's a "wow" in the fencing -- I use a pair of needle-nose pliers to tighten the mesh by twisting each 1-inch opening, in a vertical line, until I have taken up the slack. Repeat this process wherever needed.It's important to look at the size of the openings in the mesh. This is 1" octagons. This will stop everything but the smallest field mice. Some similar fencing has openings 2-inches big. That would let in larger rats and so on, so isn't suitable for my purpose.I fasten the chicken wire to the welded wire with 8" nylon zip ties. If you do something similar, buy the best nylon, UV protected zips you can get. I use 8" zips and simply cut off the excess once attached.The wire is galvanized and comes bright silver. This oxidizes and fades over time, so the chicken wire is much less obvious.Good price for 150 feet. Recommended.

Great weight and stiffness for sturdy plant cages. Cuts easily with wire cutters. Our new landscaping plants required protection from munching rabbits and “playful” squirrels. I make an appropriate size cage and anchor it with landscaping pins. This height was perfect for new hydrangeas and rhododendrons. I sometimes cut it in half to make shorter cages for bedding plants or in the veggie garden. I’ve used this product for years but can no longer find it locally. I was so glad to find it here. I’ve used 3 rolls of it so far this year and will buy more as I need it. It lasts for several years.The green color hides the cages in plain sight.However, I think it’s too expensive to use as a garden enclose.

We have rabbits all over where we live. The seem to multiply like... rabbits. They are cute and all, but they eat all my wife's flowers and vegetables, destroy the lawn, and taunt the dog so we don't want them in our back yard. We've tried a lot of different things with our existing fencing but finally decided to get a little more aggressive and put this up around the yard. We looked at a lot of options and decided on this product because it seemed like the best value we could find. The spool is pretty easy to work with but it's best if you have more than one person. Having a second person to unravel and keep things straight while I went through and stapled it to the bottom of my fence helped a ton. It is metal so you kind of have to work it a little to get it to sit how you want (like around corners), but it's also flexible enough to go up or down as needed and keep good contact with the ground. We have a big yard so going along a couple sides used up most the role. There was only one little spot in the roll where it was bent and didn't unravel right but it was easy to correct and move on. I'll have to order another one when it comes time to do the rest of the yard but when the time comes, I'll reorder the same thing. Oh and even with half the yard unprotected, we have already noticed a significant drop in the number of rabbits in the yard which makes us much happier.

I decided this year to put chicken wire around the perimeter of my garden. I had netting in place but the squirrels and someone with a trimmer kept putting holes in the bottom. I want to say when I received this it was very well packaged and not all bent up like a prior purchase from a local store. We were able to dig a small trench and bury this fencing down in the ground and staple it to our posts easily. This being the first year it's in I won't know how well it will hold up. I'm happy with it and the squirrels are not!

Good product, good price

I used this as a barrier along a chain link fence bottom to keep my dog from digging out. It looks and feels like a quality product. It's easy to work with.
