I used these to keep my large dog from digging under the fence in the back yard. They're long enough to keep him from digging under and easy to push into the ground. It worked perfectly!.

I needed 12" stakes to secure a large pair of metal egret statues in our yard, which were 45" and 43" tall with "bird legs" and thin metal toes to resemble real birds. As a result, they're a little shaky and in need of a way to keep them in place. They came with one metal anchor for each bird, which was far too short to be effective; however, these Pinnacle Mercantile stakes are long enough to hold the statues; I used three stakes for each foot, which was not a problem because I had a package of 20. Because the feet and stakes were covered in mulch, the contrast between the silver color of the stake and the bronze color of the statue was not visible. Because the stakes are made of heavy gauge metal and are difficult to bend, I could easily drive them into the ground with a hammer. On Amazon, I looked at the specifications for a variety of garden stakes, staples, and anchors, and these appeared to be the right length and material strength for me. Others appeared to be excessively short or easily bent. Remember that the smaller the gauge number, the larger the diameter of metal wires. As an example, a 9 gauge is thicker than a 12 or 14 gauge. Although it appears to be counterintuitive, this is how the system works.

These are fantastic stakes, but as others have pointed out, they are quite large and very sturdy. I bought them to keep my drip irrigation lines in place, but they were way too much. They're about twice as thick as I needed, and at 12 inches long, they were a little difficult to push into the ground in some places. However, as long as you know what you're ordering, they're a fantastic product!.

I bought a 5 inch high plastic bender board for edging to hold in my gravel in my now-natural lawn. These were the only ones that were long enough to secure the 5 inch edging in the ground and hold it in place. Because these aren't particularly sturdy, it's critical to use a rubber mallet and to pound them gently. Additionally, ensure that the ground is soft enough for the stake to go all the way down. That problem can be solved with just a little investigation. They're not as pretty as the one-sided plastic stakes that come with bender board, but the plastic breaks easily and doesn't hold up very well. These are the ones you'll see on top of the bender board, but if you're looking for something to hold something in rather than something to look at, these are the ones for you.

We use these to keep our dog from wriggling under the bottom of our chain link fence. These don't do well in very rocky soil, but ours is pretty rocky, so they'll fit in just fine once you find the right spot. I'm just dropping by to place another order because our dog has discovered a new place to go under the fence.

These are quite heavy-duty and strong enough to be pounded into the ground with a hammer. You'll need a claw hammer to pull them up once they've been hammered into solid soil. br>br>I use it to secure a temporary fence to the ground so that my dogs don't climb underneath it. It was a cinch to use.

Work efficiently. Bought to secure a 'dig fence' we're erecting around our backyard in order to keep our two new adult rescue dogs contained. In "diggers" the lab/hound. Topsoil is the top layer, followed by soil with natural rock bits for about 2" and then clay. The 9 gauge staples would bend if a rock was encountered with the amount of force the guys were using to hammer the lawn staples in. If the rock was in the clay layer, it was difficult to get them out. Some staples were too badly bent to be used again: of 180 - Twelve were thrown away. For us, the length is very important. This week is forecasted to be rainy - The dig fence is a wrap of 2x4" 14 gauge wire mesh stapled to the lower portion of our wooden privacy fence, pushed in to hug the lower fence section. br>br>We'll see if they rise up with softened soil. br>br> 2 feet long and 2 feet wide. At the 'L,' we're using these long pins in a V pattern, and at the edges, we're using these short pins in a V pattern. On the ground, this is the point where you are in the middle.

I'd bought some piranha skeletons and needed a way to make them look like they were "swimming" in the grass like a school of fish. boom! These spikes are sturdy and great to have on hand! I threaded them through each one and used a small zip tie to "position" them in various ways to make them look more "realistic," and they turned out perfectly!.
