When it comes to raccoon fencing, opening size is one of the first aspects to consider. If the openings are too large, raccoons may squeeze through or reach through the fence. In most cases, based on what we see customers use, a raccoon mesh fence should have openings no larger than 1 x 1 inch. Be sure to carefully plan for your specific needs, as factors such as fence height, material strength, and installation method can affect performance. Ultimately, you’ll need to choose the right product for your project.
Keep in mind that poly fencing on its own, without a sturdy metal base, is generally not suitable as raccoon-proof fencing, as raccoons may chew, climb, or push through it over time.
