Installation Tips
To ensure the Diggers Gopher Wire offers full protection, use these simple steps to have a secure and successful installation.
- Preparation: Before installing the Diggers Gopher Wire, clear the area of any debris or large rocks. It's important to level the soil where the wire will be laid, creating a smooth surface that allows for even placement. This step ensures that the wire will fit securely and function effectively.
- Placement: Slowly place the wire at the desired spot. The wire user lay must be distributed evenly so as to cover the protected area, whether under a garden bed, lawn or around trees. Work with the wire until it fits just right.
- Securing: Garden staples or anchor pins can be used to secure the wire once it is in place. These things should be strategically placed to keep the wire tight and laying flat against the soil. It is important to perform this procedure in order to prevent the wire from sliding or moving which could cause damage and not offer protection for long.
- Covering: Once the wire has been firmly positioned, use some soil, sod or mulch to cover it up depending on the applicable area. This will help to conceal the wire while also keeping it in place and working for long. The cover is going to make the wire disappear into the landscape while still keeping everything safe from underground pests.
