Difficult to climb fencing
In message , charles
writes Having seen many of the contributions about fencing, you may find a moat would be a better bet. A water filled stagnant ditch edged with brambles would be a good deterrent. We have easy to climb fencing at one corner. The other side is higher than ours. A couple of barrows of manure makes a nice squidgy landing for anyone coming over there. Was listening to an ex-burglar saying trellis along the top makes it much harder, because it will break one way or another, and the noise attracts attention, which is what they don't like. when we got burgled some years ago, the noise of breaking glass and splintering woodwork was considered by our nextdoor neighbour to be caused by me cutting down a tree. This despite the facts that a) it was during office hours and b) she was our local Neighbourhood Watch co-ordinator. All too common unfortunately. In a previous house my neighbour waved at the guy she had disturbed forcing my patio doors, he said "hi" and seemed a nice guy. Luckily he decided to make a quick retreat, my neighbour would have probably offered him a cup of tea! At my present house I had £15.000:00 of aluminium pump up radio masts stolen and taken away on a flat bed truck. I know how they went because another neighbour watched them and said, afterwards, how efficient and hard working the 2 guys were. Sometimes I do wonder if the crooks would have to wear black and white striped tee shirts and carry a bag marked SWAG before any one thought they were up to no good. -- Bill |
