I'm putting in a new garden, and there are a few deer in the area, as well as tons of rabbits. I have some 2' tall 1" square welded wire, I thought I would use on the lower section for the rabbits. I was thinking I would use some T-posts and electric wire or string to cover the upper part.
How do deer react to string/wire type fences, if not electrified? I've heard of the fishing line thing, but I'm mainly thinking of using electric string or tape and only electrifying if it doesn't work without that.
For deer that aren't particularly motivated, how high of a fence is usually needed to deter them?
Thanks!
