Foxes
Janet Baraclough..4/5/04 6:18
k The message from papa contains these words: 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. They aren't dangerous; even suave urban foxes don't approach people. Letting the children out to play is a good way to make sure the foxes vacate the premises (at least during the day). I called a couple of companies like rentokill but they don't deal with foxes. You could ask the local RSPCA for their advice. I'm a little concerned about this. There have been reports - few admittedly - of foxes going into houses and attacking small children, while looking for food. I'm not inclined to say that they're dangerous but nor would I be complacent about letting small children into the same area. As to the fox dung, I have no idea of what dangers it might or might not hold but they're meat eaters, as are dogs. And, to follow up another reply in this thread, foxes will take cats if they're hungry enough. -- Sacha (remove the weeds to email me) |
