Will this mesh work for deer?

No, I would not advise using it for deer. I have already had a squirrel get through it.

It should... all I can say for sure is it kept the birds, squirrels and chipmunks out of my garden.

I just bought this and I love it. Pain in the rear to string but it shoots quick. There's no doubt it will kill all small and medium game. It would be able to pierce a deer but I wouldn't push it with a moose. Lol

Yes. as long as the bow has atleast a 40lb draw its leagle and powerful enough. for white tail anyway not sure. bout mule deer.

I think it will, if the mesh is fine enough to keep them from squeezing in. We don't have iguanas where I live, but the netting is a good physical barrier for anything that is bigger than its openings. It kept the rabbits and squirrels out of my tomatoes all season. I hope this answer helps, Amber. Bob

Yes, this works great for me. It keeps all critters out except chipmucks which scoot right under the wire. I run two strands of wire: one about an inch or two above the ground and one around six inches higher so groundhogs, rabbits, etc. cannot get in without touching the wire. If you want to keep deer out, you will have to run a strand higher up as well, maybe 3-4 feet high.FYI: anything that touches the wire will short it out so you have to keep weeds and garden plants from touching the wire.

That is a really good question and so far, I can answer no. But never say never. What i have had a problem with (once) was the netting that I use for my cherry trees. I was using the open flimsier (cheap) stuff and one day I found a robin stuck in that. So I traded up for a heavier smaller mesh. No problems since. But you bring up a good point.

I have shot through mesh and found it to cause some shots to be off substantially at 20 yards. I suggest cutting a small hanging flap out of the mesh in the middle area of areas in the blind where you have viable shooting lanes then tape it up when hunting. If the taped up flap is 3x3 inches the deer will not see your movement as long as you are wearing dark clothing and moving slow. TAKE PRACTICE SHOTS FIRST ON A TARGET TO WORK OUT YOUR STEPS QUIETLY. This solves the issue and you can be sure of the shot. The ramcats are awesome. Seven deer and counting this season. Six of them were taken with ramcats and my Mathews bow.

This could be used for MOOSE hunting! It will put a bolt clean through a deer.

It is rated for small pets. I returned this because it wasn't rated for horses (and, the item listing originally wasn't marked correctly). So, I'm not so sure it would keep a deer out. T-posts & field fencing will.

It's pretty strong. I don't think deer would chew through it. But it is a plastic material -- substantial, but not metal. Much more substantial than my other bird netting, however.

I'm not sure whether this product works for squirrels or deer. There are still too many of both in our yard.

Wm, I would not recommend this for deer hunting. You can however, take smaller game with it.Best, Bruce

Jay,My understanding is it will work as long as it can be sprayed in cold weather. I use an old Windex bottle with the "Stream" setting. I sprayed our shrubs in early winter and have not had any problem with the deer this year. You may want to brush off as much snow as possible before spraying. Good luck and Happy New Year from Northern Maine.Bill

Yes. The bottom of the mesh is not fastened, so any critter could make its' way in or out.

Nancy, the short answer is yes, it will work so long as you keep it sharp. I will add the caveat that you can do better although you'll spend a few more bucks (no pun intended) The Buck 691BKB Zipper, at at $71.29 has a gut hook and you will be very happy you spent more than for the $24.95 Schrade. Although both brands use stainless steel to cut costs, I think Buck is superior and the gut hook makes field dressing and skinning a breeze; saves lots of time.

Small to medium game no problem. I would think with the right tips and bolts a deer as well not sure I would use this on a moose.

You're in luck. My ex-girlfriend is a deer biologist. I texted her and asked if an electric fence designed to keep dogs out of gardens would work against deer and she texted back that yes, it should work for deer.
