In laws been getting them and foxes for ages, and they're near to you. Badgers have a habit of tearing up bits of lawn, so beware, they're spreading.

Stories now of them taking lambs like foxes do. Fascinating creatures really, but wouldn't mess with one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe the badger just looked up from his paper, drew a lungful of pipe smoke and said, “Fuck off, dog or I’ll twat you!” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mate of mine had trouble with badgers for years, digging up his lawn on a regular basis. He got a couple of those High Frequency Sound Emitters that people use to keep cats away, and he hasn't had any trouble since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a sign outside, yet, apart from a phone number, the internet yields very little information. All a bit mysterious- as if they're putting barriers up.

dusan nikolic Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 These 2 are regular visitors to my back fence , the badger is quite brave and you have to make a din for him to scarper , the Fox is very apprehensive and you have to creep up on him . It was an interesting confrontation when the Badger turned up as the Fox was tucking in .

mickbrown Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 We had a fox coming and shitting in our garden. Read somewhere if you spray your piss around the perimeter of the garden it keeps them out. Summat to do with alpha/apex predators or some such bollox. Anyway spent a couple of days pissing in a spray bottle and when I had enough I went to town and sprayed it all round the garden. No sign of the fox. Job done. Then about three weeks later, nipper is playing in the garden and tells me there’s a funny smell over in the playground bit. Took a look and found a decomposing fox jammed right under the bottom of the slide. Maggots, the works. Can only conclude my piss is lethal to foxes. I should bottle and sell the stuff.

Out of interest... How big of a bottle of piss do you need to cover a garden big enough not notice a dead fox before the maggots take up residence?? 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
