HOW TO RABBIT-PROOF A GARDEN

Rabbit-proofing your garden is key if you want your garden to be successful. Rabbits have a

voracious appetite and can quickly destroy all your hard work. Fencing alone is usually not

enough for keeping rabbits out of your garden. Your best bet is using a combination of exclusion

methods and repellents by installing a rabbit-proof fence while also using effective rabbit

repellents. If you want to know how to keep rabbits out of the garden using effective rabbit-

proofing methods, including using rabbit deterrents, read on.

HOW TO INSTALL A RABBIT-PROOF FENCE

Step 1: Hammer stakes 12 inches into the ground, one at each corner of the area you want to

protect.

Step 2: For effective rabbit-proofing, Hammer posts in every six feet between these stakes, with

even spacing between.

Step 3: Take chicken wire, enough to cover the distance between the first two corner stakes, and bend the bottom at a 90-degree angle, creating a 12-inch lip. This 12-inch flap will cover the ground on the outside of your fence, ensuring the rabbits can’t tunnel under it. Step 4: Secure the portion of the fence with zip ties to the corner post, ensuring the flap is on the outside. Step 5: Do the same for the other sides of the fence. Step 6: Using zip ties, secure the chicken wire to the posts.
