Love them or hate them, foxes cause not only damage to our lawns and steal our tools, but are capable of transmitting diseases via their treacle-like faeces and strong odour urine such as leptospirosis (weil's disease) and toxocaris, not to mention the internal & external parasites they will almost definately be carrying. Under The Abandonement Act 1960, it is illegal to release foxes once trapped; therefore, the only humane and legal solution is to safely dispatch them. I am professional Urban Fox Controller working in North & East London areas, spending most of my time in schools, colleges, commercial and residential properties. I am often called in by gardeners due to the constant digging up of lawns and flower beds and the unpleasant fouling left behind. for more information, my website is
