Kit Solutions > About Our Kits > About One-Wire Kits
These kits are baited with an attractive lure (concentrated apple scent) that brings the deer to the wire and gives them a shock, thereby training them away from the protected area. Single-wire fences are well-suited to protecting relatively small areas like summer gardens from small deer populations; and they are best set up in the off-season, before the protected area contains anything strongly attractive to the deer, so that the baits will have no competition. STRENGTHS: These deer fences are simple, affordable, and commonly effective for many years. They are also easy to take down and set up again, either in the same place or a new location. WEAKNESSES: The scent caps along the fence need be replenished with a few drops of apple scent every 10 to 14 days during the training period, which can be time-consuming if the fence is long. Also, these fences will not work if the deer learn to jump over them, at which point they will need to be supplemented with stronger measures. LENGTHS OFFERED: 330, 660, and 1320 feet. COST: As low as 27 cents a foot with charger and gate.
