There is a better silt fence.  Stronger systems, with reinforced fabric,  higher flow rates, and exceptional filtering values.

Lower flow rates, improper T-Post spacing, & non-reinforced silt fence fabric combine for a failed install.

6' to 8' T-Post spacing is ideal.  Again, stronger reinforced fabric that is coupled with high flow rate.
