    Pest Info

    (Vulpes Vulpes)

    A gradual rise in numbers every year has led to them not only targeting chickens, lambs and smaller wildlife but also venturing into our towns and cities scavenging in bins and in some cases taking domestic pets.

    Foxes can live in very close proximity with humans and, whilst rare, attacks on people have been known.

    Foxes can also carry diseases, such as roundworm and mange, and it has been known for these diseases to transfer to pets, especially dogs.
