I am the caretaker at a place that has guessing 1 1/2 -2 miles of board fence. One side of the fence is pasture, other side is mostly groomed lawn. Oldest part of fence is probably 8 years old, newest just installed. Have always sprayed about a 2 foot band to keep the fence area clean where It can't be mowed and horses can't eat. The posts are round and were all driven in place. Now for my question. The older part of the fence had become uneven due to frost heaving the posts. Fence builder said it was because of the spraying and the bare ground frosts deeper thus heaving the posts. I think he is full of it and didn't properly drive the posts and told the owner so but what do you all think? At stake is having to deal with 2 miles of fence in sone other manner than spray.
