Can snake fence be installed on the inside of a chain link fence?

It is not recommended to install snake fencing on the inside of chain link fencing, or any other fencing when it can be avoided.

Snake Fence works as a physical barrier to keep snakes out of an area. If there are surfaces that a snake can use to climb up and over the fence, it's more or less useless. While it may be ok in some situations with view fence (if installed properly, and other considerations), something as easy-to-clinb as chain link should be avoided.

This does often cause some conflict with Homeowners Association guidelines, however. If your HOA is requiring you to install on the inside of the fence, it would be appropriate to challenge it. Most HOAs do not understand that there is added risk by simply choosing a different side of the fence to install on, and are open to changing their rules when they learn otherwise.
