Controlling predators

Controlling Predators

Besides being used to contain animals, electric fence systems can also be used to keep out predators.

 

Predators, such as wolves, coyotes, and bears would love to make dinner of your livestock, horses or exotics, but you can prevent this from happening by using a reliable, effective electric fence system.

FAQs About Keeping Out Predators

 

 

 

 

Predator FAQs- bears

A:  You can condition predators to avoid an electric fence by using bait. First, turn off the power of the fence charger.  For bears, place an aluminum can with rancid bacon or sardines on the fence line connected to a live fence wire. Be sure to place it so all the “juices” don’t run out of the can. Then turn the fence charger back on.

 

Use a fence charger with 4000-5000 volt output.

A:  It depends on the how many strands you have, how far the lowest strand is from the ground and how tall the fence is. If you are already installing a high tensile fence, you can simply change the height of the bottom wire and alter the number and spacing of wires to keep out predators.

Also, electric wires will need to be placed alternately on the outside of the fence as well as inside so the predators and livestock will remain on their respective sides of the fence.

 

Temporary electric fencing is less effective against predators, as there are an insufficient number of electric wires and the fence presents less of a physical barrier.

 

For rotational grazing, we recommend the perimeter of the entire area be high tensile fencing, with the temporary fencing inside using fewer wires to control the grazing of the domestic animals.
