Attaching mesh...

Hi all,

Random question.

Im replacing the chicken wire on my hutch and run with fox proof steel mesh.

I was wondering what is the best method of attaching this? the chicken wire is currently stapled on (proper industrial ones).

Thanks, Katie
 
You can use a staple gun so long as the staples are long enough so that when you push on the wire with some force it doesn't pop off.

I prefer the u shaped galvanised staples that you hammer in individually - much stronger and safer,but you'd need to take the doors off to do it.
 
Hmmm... will give that some thought - thanks.

The ones we have at the moment seem strong enought to hold mr fox so they should be ok - ill have a look at the hammer-y type ones though :D
