Deer overpopulation is a pressing concern for landowners
across the country. Our white-tailed friends – which were, once upon a time, a
state-protected rarity – have been multiplying in number since the early 1900s.
In suburban and rural areas from the East
Coast to the Rockies, white-tailed deer are the culprits of crop, plant, and property
destruction and are also a direct threat to humans, causing both cases of Lyme
disease and frequent automobile accidents.
Though there is no simple solution to the problem of deer
overpopulation; farmers, landowners, foresters, and gardeners can effectively
and humanely protect their properties by installing
high-quality deer fencing.

Why should you
install protective deer fencing?
Here are four excellent reasons:
1. Deer fencing is essential
to the protection of plants, crops, and gardens – and to the
preservation of biodiversity. White-tailed deer are responsible not only for the
destruction of residential gardens and plants, but also for large-scale forest
degradation.
2. Deer fences are
stronger than lower-quality netting options. Fence Center’s deer fences durable and
long-lasting. They are made of carbon black,
corrosion proof materials and are much stronger than the more commonly
manufactured polypropylene deer fences on the market today, as well as
lower-quality netting that can be found in most hardware stores.
3. Deer fencing is
humane. Unlike older perimeter
fences made of electric and wire materials, Fence Center’s deer fencing is
designed with safe materials in heights of over 7 ½ feet that will safely deter
deer from your property, rather than harm them.
4. Deer fencing is
easy to install – it
attaches to both round fence posts and
angle steel line posts. In fact, you can reference this series of online
deer fence installation videos to install your fence today.
