Hi all
I've had the odd fox in my garden since I moved in, and we've got along well together. But recently, they've started digging holes in my lawn (which was a bit patchy already ) and cr*pping in the holes.
Is there anything I can do to stop them doing this? I read somewhere that lion poo is supposed to scare them off, but I'm a little short of lions right now(!) and if it comes to it, I'd rather keep my garden poo free anyway! If I could keep the local cats out too, that would be a bonus...
I have the idea that human hair or male urine can keep them away, but I'm not sure where I got this idea or whether it's true? Or, does anyone else have any ideas (ideally cheap / free!) that would keep cats out of my garden altogether, and stop foxes from digging and pooing in it? (I don't mind so much if the foxes come in as long as they behave, they're quite fun to watch)
I did try searching on here, but didn't have much luck - the search engine doesn't seem to recognise the word "fox", I assume because it's too short...
Many thanks for any suggestions,
Giles
