  • Mowed the lawn at lunch and went through two fox shits in the process - what are some forum approved ways of keeping them out of the garden? Do those sonic alarm things work? Or other options.

  • What’s so precious in your garden that it can’t cope with nature?

  • If the sonic alarm things do work they might also work for other animals and as such I'll put up with picking up the shit from my lawn.

  • The short answer is you can't and you should accept them. They're great to watch you know.

    The longer answer is that we have an impregnable 6ft high fence made of larch strips around our garden. They can get over it, but they choose not to nearly all of the time because it's too much bother, despite a family living in next door's garden. It seems to redirect them into the garden behind.

    We've seen one once, suspected another of digging up our veg patch (perhaps unfairly, could well have been a cat) but never had any shit. However, our garden is small and doesn't hold much of interest to them. For a bigger more interesting garden they might climb a 6ft high fence which isn't a big challenge for them.

  • I have this same issue. Was doing some looking up online and the suggestion that I haven't tried yet is to spread your urine over the grass instead.

    There was no detail of whether you should go in a bucket and then spread it or apply directly. I'm sure you can work out the details

  • This is the slippery slope to voting Tory

  • I have a fox who digs up the flower bed in my front garden and shits in it/on the garden wall every day...
