Common questions
What is snake fencing?
A barrier of fine galvanized mesh, commonly 1/4-inch hardware cloth about 3 feet tall, attached along the base of walls, fences and gates with the bottom edge buried, so snakes can't get through or under.
Does it work on rattlesnakes?
Yes, when it's continuous. Gaps at gates, drain holes and wall corners are where most fences fail, which is why installers focus on those spots.
Will snake fencing keep scorpions out?
No. Scorpions climb over it and fit through the mesh. Pair it with scorpion sealing on the house.
