Bite through chicken wire?

The PVC coating is chewable, they have stripped bits off. The wire itself isn't too bad, I don't know if it's welded at the joins, it seems pretty strong so it probably is. But I wouldn't go for anything with holes bigger than 1inch x 1inch and even that is quite big. 1inch x 1/2inch is better.

You can get PVC coated mesh of the right size, not sure if it's welded properly though, maybe you could check. It's quite expensive too:

Thanks Tim - really kind to put a link too -thank you!:D
Will have a little search & show OH....
Cheers!:D
 
Just thought I'd add that not only will the wire not keep foxes out, it won't keep rabbits in either! Ours chew through it far easier than I imagined they would.
