Two shorter fences placed a few feet apart can be a good option for keeping deer out of your yard. The prospect of being trapped between two fences deters deer from jumping.

The other one of us had researched 3-D deer fencing. With this system, two short fences are placed 2' to 3' apart. The theory is that since deer have eyes on the side of their heads they are not able to perceive depth very well and cannot determine how far apart the fences are. They do not want to be caught between two fences so they don’t jump them.

She was able to install 6' t-posts for the primary fence mostly by herself, this time fencing the parts of the 2/3 acre that were not already fenced by the neighbors. She and the handyman put up 300' of 4' welded wire, black PVC coated fence. For the second fence she used step-in electric fence posts – these are the kind that are used for temporary electric fence – and added three strands of white polywire electric fence. The step-in posts have the advantage of being easy to remove for mowing. It took a while, but when the 3-D fence was completed, the deer no longer came in.
