the best and most reliable treatment for cat problems is an electric fence. It does not break down and never sleeps, and more important than that the cats learn very quickly to stay away.

electric fence always a winner !!!!

May be worth a try at £20. Go to Boddy & Ridewood and the same thing is about £75

Make an electric fence out of a battery charger, does the same job for a tenner (£10) Or buy one for about £60 that costs just £6 a year to run.

Crikey the peace of mind is worth that ten times over alone.

 

I mean, why spoddle about with all the other whims when one knows the Electric fence does the job

Instead of a Car Battery, if able to have a mains connection, just buy a £10 battery charger and use instead of a battery.

Farmers are doing thus all the time now.

I have unfortunately deleted a few of my favourites of which was superb and very easy to follow.

But is simple. Remember Rubber or plastic for isolation of course.

the Black lead needs connecting to a pole - preferablly copper, but any metal will do, as long as a good connection is made. Mine is 3 foot into the ground. The red lead is place firmly with a good connection to the wire. Most wires will do. Any that carry a curency.

When any thing then touches the live wire it becomes earthed and joins the curreny up to give a jolt. Now I have a £74 one that costs extra with the hooks etc. etc. But of course this isn't quite as good - though certainly more than adequate - because the electricity goes round loop wise... every 2 seconds or so. So the car battery charger is better I believe because it is constant.

I've run mine with two wires. Around the area at 4 inches high and the return trip is about 8 inches high. But you can run 4 threads at 4 inches if you so choose. But it is a single line that starts and finishes as such, and not joined up. It works like that in fields so have no reason to join in a circle so to speak. Might improve it, but would have to look at them sites I posted and read up lol. But every creature at least touches it for 2 second or less, so it works fine.

Good luck to all.
