• how do i stop a motherfucking cat/fox/whatever digging under the fence and fucking the garden bed in the process?

  • Tried the Lion poo? Silent Roar I think is what it's called. Gets mixed reviews but might work for you.

  • The longwinded method would be to trench and fix a wire mesh at least 9 inches down into the soil. There are thicker gauge, galvanised meshes available, rather than'chicken wire' from diy superstores that seems to have declined in quality/durability.

  • I put new fencing with concrete gravel boards up on the summer. In 3 places something has made a concerted effort to get under. I've been considering finishing the job and exposing the underside of the boards a little - I've been worrying about the lack of permeability of the boundaries. The cats/foxes go over, but I know we have toads and frogs and I worry about them not being able to roam. I don't think we have hedgehogs in the area, sadly.

    The digging is fairly contained though, and only locally destructive in each location.
