What should I do if I have badgers in my garden?
Badgers are a common nuisance pest. They can damage lawns or fencing as they forage for food. Although it is illegal to use pesticides or other methods to try to eliminate badgers from your back garden, there are some legal and humane options to deter badgers. The best choice is simply to try to get rid of their food source, which will usually mean they don’t bother travelling to your garden. If they’re overturning and eating from bins, simply shut them safely with elastic cable. Additional deterrent solutions include motion triggered ultrasonic noise systems.
