Bloody BLOODY foxes!

Our garden backs onto open countryside which is lovely in every way apart from the daily visitors. Every morning we wake up to find our lawn has been dug up. The neighbours used to feed them (for years) and have thankfully stopped recently but the buggers are still sat there every morning waiting for their frigging breakfast.
I was just doing some weeding this morning and dd wanted to help but she said it stank so much that she couldn't bear it. She went inside and managed to tread fox poo all through the downstairs of our house.
I'm sick of it. It's preventing us from using our garden. Any ideas what we can do to get rid?

You've moved into their territory, not much to be done about them.

Fox proof fence

Christ what a nasty attitude, it’s the foxes environment, if you don’t like wildlife don’t live in the country.
Here a novel idea- put a fence up.

what helped us was using chilli or garlic powder liberally. apply after any rain. ask at the asian store for out of date bags.
also old perfume (those christmas gifts that you will never use)

motion activated sprinkler is very effective as well.

check where they are coming from, check for dens (under patio or sheds)

where ever a cat can go a fox can go as well.
