Badgers are becoming more prevalent in urban areas of the United Kingdom as they increase in number and their environments and habitats are being changed. Badgers are legally safeguarded under the Protection of Badgers Act, which means it is an offense to kill or harm a badger. You are also forbidden from damaging their setts, which includes both removing them and blocking badgers from being able to access them.
However, badgers are a common nuisance pest. They might damage lawns or fencing as they forage for food. Although it is illegal to utilise pesticides or other methods to attempt to eradicate badgers from your garden, there are a few legal and humane techniques to discourage badgers. The least complicated option is simply to try to get rid of their food source, which will usually mean they don’t bother visiting your garden. If they are overturning and eating from bins, simply close them securely with elastic cord. Alternative deterrent products include motion triggered ultrasonic noise devices.
If you have a serious badger problem in your garden, experienced pest control companies will offer you advice on the probable method of access that the badger is using. They can also install safe and legal deterrents to help control the badgers. The Badger Trust should in addition be contacted as they operate local groups that could be able to offer specific help and advice about badgers locally.
