Dealing with fox-related challenges can be a concern for homeowners:

Garden Damage: Foxes dig up lawns, flowerbeds, and vegetable patches looking for food or creating dens in gardens.
Noise and Disturbance: Foxes are known for their vocalisations, especially during mating season, which can cause noise and disturbance at night.
Waste and Rubbish: Foxes can cause a mess by rummaging through trash cans and bins.

Fox Issues for Farmers:

Livestock Predation: Foxes are a significant threat to farmers, preying on poultry, lambs, and other small livestock.
Poultry Disturbance: Foxes can cause stress and disturbance among poultry, potentially affecting egg production.
Fence Damage: Foxes can damage fences and enclosures, causing livestock to escape.

We contacted this firm in the morning and they attended around lunchtime, very fast response and resolved our wasp problem within no time at all. Extremely professional and amazing service taking in all measures you would expect during the lock-down due to Covid-19.

Cannot praise this firm enough as we had a really bad wasp problem and even during the lockdown they came out. Very fast response and kept a safe distance at all times. Wonderful service well done!!

Helpful people to speak to on the phone. Prompt and efficient service, wasp nest dealt with no fuss and almost immediate result. Very competitive price for a full professional service with back up guaranteed for peace of mind. Everyone i dealt with including Chris who came out to the house was friendly and helpful. Very glad that i chose this company, would highly recommend them.

We have a regular contract with Independent Pest Control for our HMO's and have always found them, reliable, trustworthy and value for money. Recently we required urgent emergency support and IPC team members demonstrated just how they go above and beyond caring for their customers and wider community. We would highly recommend Independent Pest Control

I really can't thank Ian and his team enough. I use a wide range of companies on an almost daily basis, very few of whom come close to the levels of service I experienced from Independent Pest Control. From start to finish their technician Craig showed great knowledge and professionalism in dealing with the problem. This morning was the final visit and the property is now totally free from rodents. I would certainly have no hesitation in recommending IPC. Thank you once again Ian.

I contacted Ian regarding a wasp nest in our roof space. The very next day we had Mark come and visit. Mark is an asset to the company providing a brilliant service; from calling ahead with an ETA, to a timely arrival with a very professional & friendly manner. Mark very clearly knows his stuff and went straight to the nest, treated it from inside and out whilst explaining to us what he was doing and what to expect next.

Frequently Asked Questions About Foxes

Are foxes dangerous to pets?

They can attack pets such as guinea pigs and rabbits. Although cat and dog attacks are rare, foxes carry mange which is dangerous for dogs. A more serious issue is that they have roundworm (Toxocara Canis). Humans can catch it from handling soil or sand contaminated with infected animal faeces.

Can foxes be relocated to another area?

Relocating foxes is typically not recommended, as it can cause distress and displace them into unfamiliar territories. Instead, humane trapping and removal by professionals is a preferred approach.

Will foxes return after they are removed?

To reduce the likelihood of foxes returning, addressing things that attract them and using prevention methods effectively is essential.
