katiew7103 Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 I am in the process of constructing my WIR can anyone advise me how deep the gravel boards to my fences need to be dug down in order to prevent the fox digging under. Thanks katie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluckingmad Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Hi Katie, Not sure about the depth for the gravel boards, but we've put in a trench of concrete under our WIR - its only about 1 foot deepand 15cm wide.... our WIR is on flagstones surrounded by this ring of concrete so the fox can neight dig under nor through it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandyhas3chucks Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 you will need a skirt of some sort either mesh or concrete slabs. mr fox likes to dig right up to where it is trying to get. That is why people put them on concrete or dig like silly feet down! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mountainboarddude Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 i buried the mesh about a foot down and then placed patio slabs around it just to make sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
