Permanent water vole fencing

This is a highly durable water vole fencing that is useful if you are looking for a more permanent water vole fencing service. This product is made from 100% recycled material and can be reused. It is UV stabilised and is guaranteed for up 10 years, with a 50mm fold welded into the top edge providing a anti-climb lip.

On some projects the fencing may only be needed for the period of the development or translocation of the water voles so it may work out more cost affective to hire the fencing from us.
