"He came out and installed quickly. Clean work, respected my property, went over everything well. The only issue we had was the buttons on the box were really hard to push after it spent a full day in the sun. After some over the phone troubleshooting we figured out we just had to push REALLY hard on the buttons. Installer said this was rare and he's only seen that happen once after 3 years of the box being placed. He agreed to come out and replace the box at the next visit after we get our Husky Shepard mix use to his training and "fenced" area. My only suggestion would be to make sure the location has shade most of the day or have them mount the box inside the home. Highly recommend. Friendly and knowledgeable, and our experience has been great. Definitely cheaper than installing a fence with the prices we have on lumber right now."

"Aj was very professional with the whole process. He helped me with discussing how large and where the fence should go. He made sure job site was clean the entire time. I also appreciated the follow-up after the installation to ensure everything was working as expected. Thank you again!"

"The quality for the money was okay but overall I can’t say I was very satisfied with the guy.  It was adequate but he didn’t pay attention to details.  He laid down the tiles but they needed cementing and he didn’t do it.  I told him to do it and he wasn’t very happy with that.  When he did do it, he did a sloppy job so I had him do it again.  I was cleaning up after him a week after he left. The feeling I got was this is what I get for $450.  He quoted me the price and I didn’t hassle him about it.  I wanted him to be happy with his price so he’d do a good job.  He did lay the tiles but he could have been cleaner.  He even left his cigarette butts in my grass.  I didn’t care that he smoked but he needed to clean up after himself.  He cleaned the cement in my grass and now I have cement patches in my yard.  I told him to do it further down the yard but he said it was minerals and it was okay and that nothing would happen.  There is literally a cement patch in my grass.  It’s not hurting the environment but it makes my grass look bad.  For a guy that has 30 years’ experience, I was expecting a better job.  I have to put cement around the corners because when winter comes and it freezes, it’s going to crack the tiles in a few years.  I have to finish off things that he didn’t do.   I can’t say that I would recommend him.  I would never use him in the future."

Animal Fencing questions, answered by experts

Groundhogs are non-aggressive animals that are afraid of humans. They forage for vegetation in yards and gardens, so they can often be seen as a nuisance if you spot one on your property. That said, if you happen to get bitten or scratched by a fearful groundhog, be sure to get checked by a doctor, as they could carry infections or diseases like rabies, Lyme, or the rare tularemia.

Anecdotal evidence suggests coffee grounds can keep chipmunks away. Sprinkle them throughout your garden, yard, and plants to help deter them. As an added bonus, coffee grounds can help keep the slugs away, and they’re great for acid-loving plants such as hydrangeas, azaleas, and rhododendrons.

Squirrels hate not having access to secure shelter or food sources. Your best line of defense is to make your property less attractive by removing access to these things. There are chemical squirrel repellents, but these have mixed success. According to Pennsylvania State University, you can apply products containing the bittering agent denatonium saccharide to a squirrel's favorite fence, tree, or roof spots. However, you need to reapply repellents regularly, which aren’t scientifically proven effective.

Possums are not aggressive toward people or pets. They are shy critters that prefer to avoid confrontations. When threatened, they may hiss, growl, or display their teeth but are more likely to play dead as a defense mechanism. Possums rarely attack unless cornered or provoked. They are not a significant threat to pets, though a curious dog or cat might provoke a defensive reaction.

According to the Internet Center for Wildlife Damage Management, no frightening devices are proven effective for squirrel control. This is likely because the squirrels quickly become habituated to the noises. However, strobe lights show some promise, so motion-activated lighting could be an option worth considering as part of your integrated pest management strategy.
