>I'm looking at 2-in x 2-in galvanized welded wire mesh as a ground
screen alternative. The question is, does anyone have experience with how
well something like this would hold up?
For whats it worth, I had a welded and galvanized rabbit fence ground screen in
my parent's back yard when I was in high school - about 1700 square feet,
covering a large portion of the back yard.
A recent conversation with my dad indicated that he had been digging and found
some of it. I went and had a look and the section was a dull gray but had no
signs of rust or deterioration. The soil is mostly clay and has seen almost 20
years of watering and fertilizing, living under a mat of St. Augustine.
I guess it just depends on the quality of the material and the soil it sits in.
