Newt & Slow Worm Fencing
Frequently Bought Together
Newt and slow worm fencing is crucial in preservation and conservation of protected species during construction and development projects. This fencing acts as a physical barrier, safeguarding the species by restricting their movement from construction sites and creating a clear space for the organisms to travel through. Manufactured from green recycled polypropylene panels.
Product Dimensions: 3000 x 750 x 3mm
Newt and slow worm fencing plays a vital role in the preservation and conservation of protected species during construction and development projects. With their susceptibility to disturbance and habitat loss, it is crucial to implement effective fencing measures that cater specifically to the needs of newts and slow worms.
This specialised fencing serves as a physical barrier, preventing these reptiles and amphibians from accessing construction sites, excavation areas, or other potentially hazardous zones. By creating a clear separation, it ensures the safety and well-being of newts and slow worms, protecting them from harm and enabling their populations to thrive.
Carefully designed with wildlife in mind, newt and slow worm fencing is crafted using materials that allow for the passage of smaller organisms while effectively restricting the movement of these protected species. This ensures their confinement within their natural habitats, minimising the risk of injury or mortality.
How To Fit

The fence panels are installed using various methods, such as the slitting technique or trench excavation. For optimal results, the slitting method is preferred. Once positioned, the slit is closed by compacting the soil, creating a secure seal. Panels are overlapped and fastened with aluminum blind rivets for added strength. Adjustments can be made to accommodate uneven terrain or contours. Choose the appropriate installation method based on site conditions for a reliable and customized fencing solution.
