Hi All,

Mr Fox has been at it again. I looked out the window this morning to see
my little gem lettuces scattered all over the patio and everything in my
seed tray unearthed. He's dug holes in the grass and in the flower beds
on other occassions but this is going too far. I ws down to my last few
lettuces and a few not-yet-fully grown ones in the seed tray.
Has anyone a suitable fox deterrent that works?

I have heard that urinating on your boundaries and or sprinkling human
hair [from the barbers] leave so much human scent that the foxes avoid
that area. I don't have any personal experience as the foxes that visit
our garden don't do too much damage, now that the only live stock are few
rats in the compost.


Perhaps I'll get my hubby to 'water' the garden this evening! Thanks for
the tip.


Jo
