How to keep weeds and grass from growing in a chainlink fence
 

Let me start off by saying since I got a chainlink fence last year the I've made a major investment in weed eater trimmer line....

Over the course of this winter and spring I did a lot of research on how to combat the problem....I was determined not to use herbicides....

My final idea to the problem was this.....

Its old bailer belting from a round bailer that I got from an impliment salvage yard. For the whole fence it only cost $50. I had toyed with this idea last year looking at new belting but the lineal cost was staggering at +$2 per foot....

I was able to use a hole saw and drill a hole the size of the post....I then notched it using a swazall and tucked it under the fence and slipped it around the post....

Here's what it looks like now.....

Great Idea! :), If I had a fence that wasn't already half buried and half @$$ed... :cheesy smile:

Very neat looking, 88! :thumbs up yellow: I guess your neighbor is pretty happy with it too?

Both my adjoining neighbors like it a lot.....

My other adjoining neighbor wants me to put it under his fence also, plus I have 3 others in the neighborhood that are interested too...

Cool idea :thumbs up yellow:
