Cattle guards are structures that help in keeping livestock from crossing an area. Farmers find the use of cattle guards effective as they are saved from the trouble of opening and closing gates to allow vehicles to enter and exit. Steel is commonly used for constructing cattle guards. However, they are expensive and heavy to offload. They also corrode and get rusty fast.
