Foxes are a widespread pest in both urban and countryside regions of the United Kingdom. Mostly, they don’t present a significant risk to humans and infrequently attack domestic pets. Fox control is heavily regulated in the UK, and several methods are entirely banned. However, if foxes are an issue on your property there are several methods available which may be effective at controlling the fox population.
The best method of controlling a fox problem is simply to get rid of their usage of a food source. Bins can be kept safely closed by using elastic rope, and any other waste materials should be suitably bagged and preferably kept in a secure container. If foxes are attempting to access a live food source such as pet chickens, the most effective method is to deter them from accessing it by improving the fence or cage. Generally, foxes will simply attempt to scavenge food from an area and if their food source is taken away they will move on quickly.
If foxes are a repeated 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 usually be ineffective, and may even be against the law if carried out in an inhumane way. Qualified pest control companies will be able to offer advice on the best way to control a fox problem. They are able to help you to effectively remove any food source that the fox may be exploiting, and provide other ways of control if this is unsuccessful.
