Q: What is the lifespan of composite fences?

• <div><p>One of the best features of composite fences is their long lifespan. You can expect your composite fence to last <b>20 to 30 years</b>. It lasts long because it consists of recycled plastic and wood fibers. The plastic offers durability that wood alone can&rsquo;t provide. It&rsquo;s mold- and rot-resistant, as well as weather-resistant. </p></div>

Q: Will a goat charge at you?

• <div><p>For the most part, goats are friendly and won&rsquo;t charge at you, but there are exceptions to this rule, as there are with any animal handling practices. Typically, goats don&rsquo;t attack unless they feel threatened. Avoid cornering or rough handling goats to avoid getting head-butted, bitten, or kicked, and always supervise goats when they&rsquo;re near children or pets.</p></div>

Q: How long do fence posts last in concrete?

• <div><p>A fence post set in concrete lasts anywhere from five to over 25 years, depending on how well the concrete was applied and the fence post&rsquo;s material. Untreated wood posts in concrete could last less than 10 years, but a durable, treated wood set in properly applied concrete could last a few decades. However, all fence posts will wear out eventually, so expect to need to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-replace-a-fence-post.htm">replace your fence post</a> every five to 15 years.</p></div>

Q: What is the best inexpensive fence for a garden?

• <div><p>In terms of materials, chicken wire mesh will be the most inexpensive option to use when building your fence. The downside is that it&rsquo;s not the most attractive garden fence option. In a similar vein, you could choose a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/diy-temporary-fence-ideas.htm">DIY fence</a> made out of repurposed items, like car tires, or wooden pallets, either of which would be free to collect. </p></div>

Q: How far apart should fence posts be?

• <div><p>The ideal distance between fence posts depends on several factors, including the terrain, the purpose of the fence, and the material used. For different types of fences, here are some general guidelines:</p><ul><li><p><b>Wood and Metal Fences:</b> Posts should be spaced between 5 and 8 feet apart.</p></li><li><p><b>Vinyl Fences:</b> Spacing can be between 6 and 8 feet.</p></li><li><p><b>Chain-Link, Mesh, or Lattice Fences:</b> Posts can be set anywhere from 4 to 25 feet apart, with 4-10 feet being common for chain-link.</p></li><li><p><b>Wire Fences:</b> Spacing can be up to 12 feet apart.</p></li></ul></div>
