[CHICKENS-101] Re: Its official, we have foxes...

 

I dont know all of what hubby did, but i know he covered the heck out of it - looks like a den or hole in the ground.. there is a fresh killed chipmunk in there now... and he sprayed it down with ant-human scent spray... not sure if its on a board ... Hubby did a lot of research when he set it up I trust either we will get at least one or the combo of locking up the food and invading their space will have them move on...

Has anyone had luck spraying the perimeter of the property with coyote urine?
We were thinking of doing that once we have established that the diner is closed... ( and made sure the den isnt ON our property thus trapping the foxes INSIDE by the coyote scent!)
