Recommended Tools & Supplies

Top Pick

Deer Fence Mesh

Nearly invisible polypropylene — keeps deer out

Metal Fence Posts

Sturdy support — drive into ground

Post Driver

Pound posts in straight without a sledgehammer

Gate Latch Kit

Easy-open gate for daily garden access

Zip Ties (heavy duty)

Ground Stakes

Pro Tips

✓ Deer can jump 6 feet — go 7-8 ft tall or angle the top outward
✓ Bury the bottom 6 inches or pin with ground staples to stop burrowing
✓ Place posts every 6-8 feet for adequate support
✓ A simple gate is worth it — climbing over a fence daily gets old fast
