How to KEEP DEER AWAY! Easy, Simple and STINKY!

What happens here

The strategic placement of two poly wire lines, even without being physically connected to form a solid barrier, creates a psychological 'three-dimensional barrier' in the mind of deer. Deer are browsers, not grazers, and typically prefer to jump over obstacles at an angle rather than straight over. This dual-line setup, especially when electrified, makes them perceive a complex and confusing obstacle, deterring them from attempting to jump and risking entanglement or a shock.

Goal: Learn how dual poly wire lines create a perceived 3D barrier to deter deer.

What they say

you could run another one down low if you've got a rabbit or a groundhog problem. They don't like touching that nose to that little wire and it goes zap. Not. So, the way I do this is I run two lines around the outside of my garden. That somehow puts some sort of threedimensional barrier in the deer's head and it can't seem to negotiate to jump this fence. Deer don't like to jump straight over. They like to jump at an angle and I think that the deer feel like they're going to get caught up in this fence and they just seem to avoid it at all cost. Okay. Now, I will say
