I am wondering what experience/ advice people may have about the use
of electric fencing around koi and goldfish ponds. I live in the woods and have gazillions of predators: raccoons, possoms, herons, owls and an occasional snapping turtle that eat my dear expensive koi; squirrels and deer that eat and demolish the marginal plants; snakes that carry off and consume the bullfrogs. After loosing lots of fish (even with careful sculpting of the pond sides and underwater hiding places), I had to resort to bird netting staked down on all four sides and netting overhead to keep owls out. It has worked, but as a friend says, it looks like stalag 17. And I am constantly repairing holes the squirrels make. I can't seem to find much information about the use and/or problems of low charge electric fences made for ponds online. Anyone have any experience with them or resources? |
