Re: [RC] [RC] Fencing - Rae CallawayCreosote is illegal. You can get Carbolineum and it works wonders in keeping the beavers off the fences. It makes for a nice looking fence, too. I first put it on mine 6 years ago and am now having to restain as they are starting to chew again. It's a heck of a lot cheaper than having to replace the entire fence every 5 years like I was having to do before!

Doesn't cost much.I use one strand to keep mine off the hogwire fence.Has worked for 5 years.You can get a solar charger for around a 100.$ that works fine.Or even a pulg in one at the hardware store if you have power for about 35.$Even though it says to mount indoors, we put it outside and it is covered with a bucket, then we run a cord to it.From: "J.Thom" <J.Thom@xxxxxxxxxx> To: "Ridecamp" <ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [RC] Fencing Date: Sat, 27 Mar 2004 15:16:08 -0500 My horses have decided to really chew our fences and posts the last while.
