apparantly mice,frogs and spiders are all linked phobias. Its something to do with the quick movement.. heres a story from my younger days as a trainee just 4 u joe flo...
When I was a wee junior I worked for a wicked witch flower lady, we worked in an "upmarket" flower shop that sold only the finest belgium chocolates.... On witches day off me n my matie used to help ourselves to delish chocs to make up for our lousy pay and evil bosses....our way of getting our own back .. Once this behaviour had continued for a couple of months me matie bought some chocs for a relitive that she had been feuding with for a year,as a peacemaking. The rellie bit one of the chocs in two and out popped a massive maggot ! ! we'd been stuffin them in whole as were little pigs ! God only knows how many maggots we'd eaten. Karma some might say but b4 you judge us read on... The "lovely" boss lady told matie to bring back the chocs to be sent off and didn't even give a refund or send apology to the affected rellie ! And we only got 20% staff discount and was on min wage ! What dosn't kill ya only makes us stronger !? HMMmm yum yum. xx

To get rid of snails and slugs you need to set beer traps. Just dig a little hole and sit a jamjar or something in there half fill with beer and they all climb in get sozzled and die. You do need to empty the traps everyday though to make room for new "drownings". Foxes are easier just get any male, husband, brother etc...and get them to pee all around your boundaries and thats it no more foxes. They hate the smell as its territorial so they stay away. If you have a friend with a large male dog use him instead. These really work. I live in the middle of the country with free range ducks and hens and my dog marks the garden everyday and we never get foxes brave enough to come in after the hens. Good luck.
