Foxes

There are some hints to deter foxes from your backyard:

  • Automatic sprinklers.
  • Motion activated lights.
  • Ultrasonic fox repellents (not sure of impact on domestic animals).
  • Fox proofing the yard and any small animal chicken pens.
  • Spray repellents - using natural ingredients like chili peppers, garlic and capsaicin will keep the foxes away.
