Red Fox Family Damaging Gardens: Fencing & Trapping

Question: Red foxes under neighbor's shed; trampling flower beds, digging holes at night. Want them gone.

Answer: Exclusion & Population Control

Fencing (Best)

• 4+ ft high, angled outward top
• Electric fence option (check legality)

Food Source Reduction

• Control mice/voles (fox prey) – guide
• No food = no foxes

Trapping (If Legal)

• Check state laws: agency links
• Hire pro – read vetting tips
• Trap guide: fox handbook
• Relocation inhumane (why); euthanize per law

Repellents: Waste

No evidence they work.
