Gardening in or near the woods, you'll likely need a more substantial
fence than a single hot wire 6" off the ground, though some
electrification certainly helps - but coons are not stupid, so you have
to try and be smarter than they are; and you might as well get the thing
up on a permanent basis; you'll need it, the critters are out there.
