Foxes are a common pest in both urban and countryside regions of the United Kingdom. Usually, they don’t present a substantial risk to humans and rarely attack domestic pets. Fox control is heavily regulated in the UK, and some methods are completely unlawful. However, if foxes are a problem on your land there are some methods available which can be effective at handling the fox population.
The best way of controlling a fox problem is simply to remove their usage of a food source. Bins can be held safely closed by using elastic rope, and any other rubbish should be adequately bagged and preferably stored in a secure container. If foxes are trying 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. In general, foxes will simply attempt to scavenge food from an area and if their food source is taken away they’ll move on quickly.
If foxes are a persistent issue, there are other pest control methods available. Foxes can be trappedor shot, although both should only be done by trained experts. Amateur attempts at either method will typically be ineffective, and could even be unlawful if performed in an inhumane way. Specialist pest control companies can offer advice on the best way to control a fox problem. They are able to help you to correctly remove any food source that the fox may be exploiting, and provide other methods of control if this is unsuccessful.
