There is a way that wildlife rescue taught me to prevent pests and
predators from climbing a fence. About 1 ft. or so up the fence, attach
a 12" wide strip of roof fla****ng to the fence. They hit that and slip.
Works well to keep raccoons out of poultry yards and it not unattractive.
It can also keep squirrels out of fruit trees (wrap it around the trunk)
so long as the squirrel cannot jump into that tree from another location.
Is groundhog edible? ;-)
