netting and snow
Author: Kara Berlage

I am wondering how your netting products hold up to heavy snow accumulation. Will the current still work when the snow piles up? What issues do I need to be concerned about under those condition. I live in northern Wisonsin where we have heavy snows, drifting, cold temperatures, and ice.

Thanks,
Kara

Kara,
Snow causes 2 problems. The first is that it acts as an insulator between the animals and the ground. The animals don't ground as well and therefore don't feel as strong of a shock. The second issue is that the snow can short out the net if it is deep enough.
