Why choose an electric wild boar-proof fence?
To deal with wild boar intrusions on properties, it is essential to install an effective electric wild boar-proof fence. Unlike a traditional barrier, this type of fence prevents animals from lifting, breaking, or bypassing it.
The electric shock, harmless to the animal, acts as a real psychological barrier: after an unpleasant first contact, the wild boar associates the fence with a negative experience and avoids returning to it.
Strong and durable, the electric fence withstands the weather. It is suitable for both individuals and farms wishing to effectively protect their land.
Which fence to choose to protect your garden from wild boars?
To prevent wild boars from damaging your land, two types of fences are particularly effective. These two solutions are available at Terwagne, a recognized specialist in the field.
1. The electric wild boar-proof netting
Practical and quick to install, the electric netting is an all-in-one solution ideal for small areas or temporary protection zones. It already includes the conductive wires and support stakes, making it easy to set up. Lightweight and mobile, it can be easily moved as needed.
Its electrified wires, arranged at several heights, create a deterrent barrier for wild boars, whether young or adult.
2. The custom fence with stakes, wires, and energizer
For larger or irregular terrains, a multi-wire fence provides a durable solution. It consists of stakes about 70 cm high, spaced 4 to 5 meters apart, and three to four conductive wires or ribbons installed at different heights.
The effectiveness of this type of fence largely depends on the power of the energizer. To penetrate the thick skin of the wild boar, it is recommended to use a device delivering energy between 4 and 8 joules.
Terwagne offers several reliable and efficient models, adapted to the configuration of each terrain.
How to effectively protect land from wild boars?
Here are some practical tips to get the most out of your electric wild boar-proof fence:
- Regularly check the tension of the wires;
- Multiply the rows for better protection;
- Choose an energizer suited to your installation;
- Maintain the surroundings to avoid power loss;
- Periodically check the charge of your energizer.
The solutions offered by Terwagne, whether electric nets or custom fences with energizer, combine efficiency and safety for long-lasting protection of your land.
