Pesky Foxes

[DarceyK123]

I've had a few foxes coming into my garden, they live next door I think as theirs is a bit of a jungle.

Mine is mainly lawn with flowers beds and seems they come into play, they run on and off the raised beds and play fight with each other on the grass.

I didn't really mind but they are getting a bit cheeky now, I thought they would be too scared to come close to the house during the day at least but no, they wander around bold as brass, one even looked in my door the other day and at the moment with the hot weather I'm scared to have it open.

I don't leave any food out or anything like that.

Blocked up the hole I thought they were coming from but they just jumped the fence.

Someone suggested urine but I don't like the idea of that as I think it might attract rats and mice.

So as a last resort I got some of that Scoot deterrent but half hour after I had sprayed it, they were back.

They poop on my paved paths also, I have to hose them every day now, wish if they were gonna go they would go on the lawn, fertilize it a bit.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks for all your replies.

Looks like there is not a lot I can do, might try the hose spray later when I have the time, too many cats about to do the Jeyes.

Surprised the Scoot stuff didn't work.
