Fence staining helps to sustain your fence
The great thing about fence staining is the preservation that it provides. If you don't stain a wooden fence, then it is extremely likely to rot very quickly. Weather worn wood splinters very easily and attracts a lot of little creatures since it will rot pretty quickly. This is especially true if you live in a very moist location like the East Coast with high humidity. So if you want to keep your fence around for good long time, be sure to stain it.
