Tiggy Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 foxy must have has a real go at my eglu last night, ripped the cover, there are blood stained footprints all over the place, must have hurt his mouth trying to bite through the weld mesh - girls are all fine, I'm hoping the fox will begin to leave us alone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carol U Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Glad your girls are OK. We had something similar last year and installed a Foxwatch. Since then, no sign of foxes at all. If you keep having problems you might like to consider it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ziggy Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Like this, Nature Chick, http://www.primrose-london.co.uk/foxwatch-p-1722.html?source=googleads&gclid=CI2it86-6ZMCFRRhnAod5hF7Wg It works by emitting sounds that foxes find unpleasant, and they after a while are supposed to avoid your garden... I have one and find it works, as long as I keep the battery regularly changed, as I have five cats and four kids that keep triggering the motion sensor... It's really a question of turning it off in the morning and turning it on in the morning, but I'm not always that organised... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
