fox Problems
Two recent problems, a fox has recently started to leave a "calling card" on the step outside our front door, I've tried a diluted ammonia solution which appears to work but obviously the current constant rain means regular re-application.The fox has now started to dig small shallow holes in our front lawn.....any solutions which will not damage the grass ?

You could try one of the water scarecrows for a while. They're very effective, but it depends on the set up of your garden etc.
How about enthusing to your neighbours about how well all those abbatoir-derived fertilisers work, while not using them yourself?
We have open plan and foxes, which occasionally present us with problems, though not recently, although they pass through.
Not sure what might help I have no idea why they stop using our place except someone further along must have attracted them.
Chemical wise is a product called Renardine still available?
Sprinkling something like blood fish bone on the outer limits of your property might work, although it attracts them maybe it will steer them away from your doormat.
Flush the area with soapy water or plain water to get rid of the fox smell as using a stronger "scent" like jeyes might actually attract them to try and cover it with their own?
