Rodents and wildland fires are good reasons why the bottom section of
all guy wires should be steel, not synthetics.

Rodents chewed through a set of kevlar guy lines for my Spiderbeam 26m
vertical while I was out of town last week. Down came the vertical, which
broke into three pieces, and when the guy lines fell to the ground, the
rodents ruined them all. Looks like I'm off 160m for the winter. It will be
a big job to reinstall everything. Hope I can get replacement sections for
the broken Spiderbeam pole.
