a well known country cure to keep foxes out is to pee around the edges of the area you want to keep them out of,thats why you can see so many farmers peein in the hedges,but the scent doesnt last long so you have to keep doin it.....or buy a gun shoot the bally thing then buy chucks and feed the slugs and snails to them (they love em)then the frogs and toads wont come in the garden to eat the slugs and snails coz there arent any, cut and cultivate your garden and all will be well

is it one fox or a whole family? lots of cubs this year

Only get one manky looking thing . may have had cubs had we not filled the den in last year. I am in a bungalow and also was woken up at 2.30am by something charging and ramming the side gate...got up to look and came face to face with a badger ! never seen one before (unless roadkill counts).
I live down a road with 1930's houses so am suprised by the amount of wildlife down here ! And they all wanna cut through our house ! xx

we too have a fox or foxes that come in our garden at night we can smell them most mornings they are after my chucks but we will get them first ,the trouble is as soon as you kill one another will move in on the area, my hubby shot three the other night then as he was driving home one popped out of the hedge in front of him so he ran it over
but as many as we shoot you just cant get rid of em they just come back to snack on the baby piggies.
badgers will dig up your garden for you but make a hell of a mess. jenflowa you must be a main wildlife motorway!!
snowdrop shoot the rabbits too yummy rabbit pie!!!
