About Foxes & Urban Wildlife

The red fox (Vulpes vulpes) has adapted remarkably well to urban life, with London home to an estimated 10,000+ foxes. While generally not dangerous, foxes cause significant problems including garden fouling, digging, den building under decking, noise nuisance, and damage to lawns and plants. They may also threaten small pets and poultry. All fox deterrent work must be carried out in compliance with the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981.

Signs of Infestation

  • Strong, musky odour in garden or under decking/sheds
  • Digging and scraping in lawns, flowerbeds, or under structures
  • Screaming or barking sounds at night (especially during breeding season Jan–March)
  • Faeces deposited on lawns, patios, or garden furniture
  • Damage to bins, compost heaps, or food waste bags
  • Live fox sightings or evidence of a den (matted vegetation, bones, fur)
