Okay, I was the one that suggested the electic fence. I will make a
couple more comments and bow out. First if you live in down town New
York, I wouldn't suggest an electric fence- -you will have to just
live with the deer problem there, orany other Metro area.

The reason I wanted to mention the children or pets is "I don't want
some Dumb-ass to run a dangerous fence like a 110V wire."

Now on the us of a proximity detector. I built me one out of a motion
detector and two old smoke alarms. It worked fine for a while, but I
had troubble keeping batteries in them. After about a month they
would eat my roses and listen to the music!!!

Have a good one, and protect our kids- - -they are worth it. .

I got a few but they came in today and ate the rest. I'm figuring to build
a cage around the veges. If I lay some netting across the top that will
keep the birds out as well. Found this web site
