    For years, I had used a three strand electric fence, two strands down low (for raccoons) and one strand up at about 5 1/2 ft., at the top of the T-post. Deer could jump over that, but after getting close and bitten once they would stay away. At the beginning of this year I learned about the 3D Deer fence (inside strands at 20” and 48”high and outside strand 36” away and 34” high). Doesn’t have to be energized. My understanding is that since deer’s eyes are on the side of the head (and not at the front) they have no depth perception and the 3D fence confuses them and they stay away. Has worked very well for me.
