Default Noisy ****ing foxes

Right, getting v pissed off with this.

Every night from about 10pm onwards I get a bunch of foxes outside my block of flats. The screaming noises they make is driving me nuts!

What's the best way of killing them? Or making them bugger off? Can you get ultrasonic things to deter them?

I really want to kill them though.

Joking aside, I think its nice to hear a bit of wildlife and that is coming from a fox hunt supporter.

At least they are indigenous, so its better than listening people's abandoned pet cats fighting and yowling

Not with poison you are not. If you are going to do it, then do it humanely and with just cause, e.g. to protect livestock. A few squawks at night is not just cause in my book.

Indiscriminate poisoning could kill other indigenous wildlife like badgers and hedgehogs.

Might scare the old buggers in the same block

You have no idea how infuriating this is. Being woken every night to scrreching noises aint funny. I am top of the food chain, and there will be only one winner

Ron - should be interesting!

I woke early one morning and took a look out the window only to see my cat and a fox trotting down the road together, looking for all the world as if they were having a conversation. Surreal.

RON: Cant say I agree with killing anything that decides to take a bite.

Mark: Airgun will result in alot of suffering for the fox

Notorious: I know cats and foxes have a respect for one another but thats hilarious.

Can't think why you feel you want to kill them, and other creatures too. Get a foxwatch jobber by all means if it is that annoying.

And i support foxhunting too.

I'd like to have seen that fox and cat though.

What about wearing some foam earplugs so you don't get disturbed by the noises?
