  • Thank you all for the advice, I'm going to try some scoot and also get some sonic repellers to see if they work, I've tried them on moles and they were brilliant.

    If that doesn't work then onto plan B....

    Try 'Fox-a-gon', a local, humane fox deterrent service. Give Terry a call.

    Where do the foxes go once they've been "deterred" then?

    The local barbers, if asked nicely, might bag up their sweepings for you.

    Just tell them that you don't want the hair from any gingers as it might infuriate the foxes.

    Our two cats chase the foxes away. Two proper little hard b*tches they are.

    Screech loudly and shit in your own garden. Establish dominance.

    Is that why you don't see any foxes in Bermondsey?

    Don't know about Bermondsey but it works for me; keeps both the foxes and the neighbors away. Probably because I've only got a balcony.

    Just don't confuse foxes and shiba inu if you get the shot gun out:

    Fox - Vulpinisimage

    Shiba Inu- Canis lupus familiaris image

    Random fact - Though looking most like a fox, the shiba inu being a 6000 year old breed, is actually genetically closer to a wolf than any other breed of dog in the world.

    Here's the run down if you're interested in those sort of things:

    Sorry to piss on everyones cornflakes, but the link shared about "Humane" fox control said that they use Scoot (Which is useless) to "deter" and that no foxes are harmed. Just wondered where they go?

    Bit like making sure your house is harder to break into than your neighbour, Rob. It doesn't matter where they go as long as they leave you alone...

    I would put down some Munster cheese, that will keep anything away.
