Thread: How to deal with Poachers???

I also run a barb wire nailed to the top of the post too so there is a triangle of hurt for anyone who wants to steal shit from me

electrified barb wire on outriggers either side of the fence makes it allmost impossible to climb.
fill any gaps in the fence with barb wire that people might try to slip thru. cheep. quick. low maintance. tighten up the existing wires too while you are there. it makes things damn hard
if you have a trail camera, set it where you have purposly left a little gap or where they have found a way after your fencing effort

worked a treat on my property.

by the way dont point a trail camera at a tree that moves in the wind. you end up with 1700 photos of the same damn tree

I think all the talk of how to deal with them is all fun until someone gets hurt or property is damaged.
As soon as that happens you end up in just as much shit if not more for prompting it.

Look into the trespass laws, put non-trespass signs up along the fence. Get the evidence and then have the law on your side, not have them chasing you for criminal acts.

Take advice from Josh as he has quite a bit of experience.


Failing that, organize a forum hunt down there. I am keen to try some Punji traps. Just need someones crap I can smear on the pointy end of the sticks
