Abstract: There is disclosed an electric fence for chasing away pigeons or the like undesired birds. The fence comprises a series of spaced posts made of electrically insulating material, each post having a flat top end cut across by a groove having a depth of predetermined size and formed with a tapped hole adjacent to the groove. An electric wire, having a positive section, extends successively through the grooves of the posts, this wire having a diameter greater than the predetermined sized above mentionned so as to projecting out of the grooves. Screws are provided which have threaded stems and flat heads, the stems being screwed to one of the tapped holes. The screws heads have a width which is sufficient to overlap the electric wire projecting out of the grooves in a manner such that the screws clamp the electric wire against the posts.
