Who needs fencing in Nelspruit
Mbombela, widely known as Nelspruit, sits in the Lowveld among citrus and macadamia farms, lodges and game reserves. Homes and estates in the city and White River choose palisade, clear view and electric fencing, often on hilly granite plots. Farms fence orchards, packhouses and staff housing, and game reserves near the Kruger area build high game and electric fences to manage wildlife. Hot, humid summers and termites mean galvanised steel and steel posts outlast untreated timber.
Typical electric fencing requests in the area come from:
- Game reserves: reserves use electrified game fences to keep animals in and poachers out
- Farms: farmers protect homesteads and use electric strands to keep livestock in
- Homes: homeowners add electric strands to boundary walls for early warning
- Estates: estates run monitored electric fences around the whole perimeter
- Schools: schools add electric strands to perimeter walls and fences
- Commercial: offices and shopping centres secure perimeters and service yards
