For my new run I'm surrounding the run with 1/2 inch welded
wire and am extending the mesh down the sides and buried
for about 14 inches below ground.
I saw in another post a member had buried wire cloth
under the dirt floor of the run, covering the entire dirt
floor with the wire mesh. I thought this was a great idea.
I'd like to cover (buried) the entire dirt floor with wire mesh... but to use
the 1/2 inch welded wire would get to be more than I'd like to spend for
that extra material.
My question is.... for the wire mesh just under the dirt floor (covering
the entire run just below the dirt floor).... if I were to use something
larger than the 1/2 inch... say a wire mesh that is 2 inch squares... or maybe
1 inch squares... would that prevent any digging predators from gaining
entry into the run from underneath?
Thanks for the help and suggestions.
