Why is fox control necessary?

In most cases urban foxes do not cause us any specific problems although some people may find their presence distressing, especially if they have young children or pets. They will often raid bins and spread waste as a result. Many foxes do carry fleas and their dens have a strong and distinctive foul odour. Foxes continually scent mark their territory – if they gain access to your solum this can prove very unpleasant! They may also need controlling for reasons such as to prevent damage to cage animals and livestock or due to damaging lawns and golf courses.
