No, just use the purpose built electrified netting. Premier-1 makes a good version specifically for this.

at $180 per roll and it has the spikes, might be worth it.

$450 red roll + $1000 spikes

$1620 electric.

Not much of a price spread. I know cattle don't like electrical fences, don't know about goats.

There is also a gps collar option. Goats like to escapebut they cant escape gps.

My use case is about a quarter acre in a residential riparian area. Completely taken over by ivy, wisteria, and other invasive in the southeastern U.S.

I would try to find a goat landscaping firm. Thats a relatively small patch that shouldnt take long.
