Foxes are a common pest in both urban and countryside areas of the UK. Usually, they do not present a serious danger to humans and infrequently attack house animals. Fox control is extensively regulated in the UK, and several methods are entirely illegal. However, if foxes are an issue on your land there are several methods available which may be effective at controlling the fox population.
The most effective approach to controlling a fox problem is simply to eliminate their usage of a food source. Bins can be kept securely closed by using elastic rope, and any other rubbish should be suitably bagged and preferably stored in a secure container. If foxes are attempting to gain access to a live food source such as pet chickens, the most effective method is to deter them from accessing it by strengthening the fence or cage. Generally, foxes will simply try to scavenge food from a location and if their food source is removed they will move on quickly.
If foxes are a prolonged problem, there are some other pest control methods available. Foxes can be trappedor shot, although both should only be performed by trained professionals. Amateur attempts at either method will normally be ineffective, and could even be unlawful if carried out in an inhumane way. Specialist pest control companies can offer advice on the best way to control a fox problem. They can help you to effectively remove any food source that the fox may be exploiting, and offer other ways of control if this is unsuccessful.
