Might anyone have experience of getting rid of foxes? I have a family
of foxes in my (very) small London garden and they are creating a mess
and with summer coming I am reluctant to let the children out there as I
don't know how dangerous they (the foxes that is!!) can be.

I called a couple of companies like rentokill but they don't deal with
foxes.

any suggestions gratefully recieved.

I find an ounce and a half of lead shot travelling at 1200 ft/sec very
effective. Others prefer 5 grains of lead at 1500 ft/sec but I
wouldn't use a rifle in a garden ;-). Ask around in the pub, someone
must have a SGC and would come and shoot them for you.
