SchneckenzaunSnail fence
Zum Schutz von Pflanzen vor Schneckenfraß wurden die Schnecken bisher häufig durch Verwendung von Schneckengift getötet. Abgesehen von der Tötung der Schnecken, was aus Tierschutzgründen abzulehnen ist, ist hierbei zu berücksichtxgen, daß die Pflanzen selbst mit dem Gift kontaminiert und so für Menschen ungenießbar werden können. Mechanische Barrieren, wie Erdwälle, tiefe Gräben oder Umzäunungen, stellen hingegen keinen wirksamen Schutz dar, weil sich die Schnecken einfach darüber hinwegsetzen können. Es ist auch bereits versucht worden, Schnecken mit Bier von den Pflanzen abzulenken. Das gelingt zwar, doch ertrinken dabei die Schnecken nach dem Biergenuß in der mit Bier gefüllten Schale oder Dose.To protect plants from snails, snails have often been killed using snail poison. Apart from killing the snails, which is unacceptable for animal welfare reasons, it must be taken into account that the plants themselves can be contaminated with the poison and thus become inedible for humans. Mechanical barriers such as earthen walls, deep ditches or fences, on the other hand, do not provide effective protection because the snails can simply jump over them. Attempts have also been made to distract snails from the plants with beer. This works, but the snails drown in the bowl or can filled with beer after drinking the beer.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine konstruktiv einfache und leicht einsetzbare Möglichkeit zu schaffen, die Schnecken von den zu schützenden Pflanzen abzuhalten, ohne dabei die Schnecken zu töten.The present invention is based on the object of creating a structurally simple and easily usable possibility of keeping snails away from the plants to be protected without killing the snails.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß mit einem Schneckenzaun gelöst, bestehend aus einem Band, insbesondere aus Kunststoff, an dem mindestens ein nicht isolierter, einen elektrischen Strom führender Draht angeordnet ist. Damit werden die Schnek-This object is achieved according to the invention with a snail fence consisting of a band, in particular made of plastic, on which at least one non-insulated wire carrying an electric current is arranged. This means that the snails are

ken durch schwache elektrische Schläge abgeschreckt und von den zu schützenden Pflanzen ferngehalten.They are deterred by weak electric shocks and kept away from the plants to be protected.
Vorteilhafterweise kann das Band aus Kunststoff gehäkelt oder gewoben sein, damit es eine geringe Angriffsfläche für Wind bietet und damit der Schneckenzaun eine höhere Stabilität aufweist.Advantageously, the band can be crocheted or woven from plastic so that it offers a smaller surface area for wind to attack and so that the snail fence has greater stability.
Weitere Vorteile ergeben sich dadurch, daß die Ränder des Kunststoffbandes verstärkt sein können. Damit kann der untere Rand des Bandes leicht in die Erde eingedrückt werden und ein Hindurchkriechen der Schnecken unter dem Zaun auf ein Minimum reduziert werden.Further advantages arise from the fact that the edges of the plastic tape can be reinforced. This means that the lower edge of the tape can be easily pressed into the ground and the chance of snails crawling under the fence is reduced to a minimum.
Ferner kann das Band zwischen Kunststoffstäben einspannbar sein, die leicht im Erdreich zu verankern sind.Furthermore, the tape can be clamped between plastic rods, which can be easily anchored in the ground.
Für ein sicheres Funktionieren des Schneckenzaunes können mehrere nicht isolierte Drähte in das Band eingewoben sein, welche elektrisch parallel geschaltet sind. Auch wenn einzelne stromführende Drähte zerreissen sollten, bleibt dadurch die Wirksamkeit des Zaunes erhalten.To ensure that the snail fence functions safely, several uninsulated wires can be woven into the tape, which are electrically connected in parallel. Even if individual live wires break, the effectiveness of the fence is maintained.
Bei Einsatz des Zaunes in der Nahe eines Hauses oder Hofes mit Netzanschlußmöglichkeiten kann als Stromquelle ein netzgespeister Transformator vorgesehen sein. Die Stromversorgung kann dadurch preiswerter gestaltet werden als mit einer Batterie.If the fence is used near a house or yard with a mains connection, a mains-powered transformer can be used as the power source. This makes the power supply cheaper than using a battery.
Sind keine Netzanschlußmöglichkeiten gegeben, so kann vorteilhafterweise als Stromquelle eine Batterie vorgesehen sein.If there are no mains connection options, a battery can be used as a power source.
Das Band kann typischerweise eine Breite von circa acht cm aufweisen.The band can typically have a width of about eight cm.
Nachfolgend wird ein bevorzugtes Ausführungsbeispiel anhand der Zeichnung dargestellt.A preferred embodiment is shown below with reference to the drawing.

Die einzige Figur zeigt schematisch eine Ansicht eines aus Kunststoff gehäkelten Zaunabschnittes in Form eines Bandes 10, mit verstärkten oberen und unteren Rändern 11 und 12, gegenüber denen der mittlere Bereich 13 des Bandes 10 größere öffnungen aufweist. Drei Drähte 21, 22 und 23, in der Figur der Deutlichkeit halber durch dicke Linien dargestellt, sind in das Band 10 eingewoben, wobei der oberste Draht 21 am oberen Rand 11 angeordnet ist und die beiden anderen Drähte 22 und 23 im mittleren Bereich 13 durch eine mäanderfÖrmige Führung immer wieder zum elektrischen Kontakt kommen. Auch wenn ein Draht 21, 22 oder 23 an einer Stelle zerreißt, bleibt die elektrische Spannung am Zaun aufrechterhalten. Wegen seiner Steifigkeit kann der untere Rand 12 leicht in die Erde gesteckt werden. Das Band 10 ist zwischen Kunststoffstäben einspannbar, welche jedoch in der Figur nicht gezeigt sind.The only figure shows a schematic view of a plastic crocheted fence section in the form of a band 10, with reinforced upper and lower edges 11 and 12, compared to which the middle area 13 of the band 10 has larger openings. Three wires 21, 22 and 23, shown in the figure by thick lines for the sake of clarity, are woven into the band 10, with the uppermost wire 21 being arranged on the upper edge 11 and the other two wires 22 and 23 in the middle area 13 repeatedly coming into electrical contact through a meandering guide. Even if a wire 21, 22 or 23 breaks at one point, the electrical voltage on the fence is maintained. Due to its rigidity, the lower edge 12 can easily be stuck into the ground. The band 10 can be clamped between plastic rods, which are not shown in the figure, however.
