How high does this fence need to be? I'll get caught sooner or later
if I keep shooting them and they can do allot of damage before I get a
shot.

Its a viscious cycle.
When you live trap a problem animal KILL IT and Bury It do not give

There are some lethal smoke bombs on the market that are very
effective on controling problem animals when used properly.
DO NOT RELOCATE PROBLEM ANIMALS



Valid points, but not everyone lives in urban areas. I have access to
vast tracts of woods. Take a chill pill.


Oh, and since you're so interested in doing things "right", please don't
TOP POST! Very poor usenet manners to top post.

Unless you are on a binaries group. ;-)
Then it's very common, and necessary!

What part of your top-posting mind does not understand the words
"unfrequented hiking area?" They'd have a way to go to get to
bothering another homeowner & I am not taking them anywhere where they
do not already exist.

They are not "problem animals" when they are in a remote and partially
wooded location. They can play with their friends there & nibble what
they choose.

Smoke bombs are completely inappropriate to use in a residential area
such as mine and are best suited for pasture or large, open acreage.
Electric fencing would be more effective as a deterrent, but that
surely will send into my neighbors' yards, too, as well as bother my
own pets.

I suppose I'd better load the rifle for the deer, too, rather than set
up fencing, eh?

Shucks...you mean the assault rifle I got at the gun show needs a
permit?
