Foxes- ive finaly discovered how they get in our gardens


Recommended Posts

Well its been bugging me how theese foxes are getting in .....well our gardens atleast.

I couldnt think how unless they were parachuting in...


Finally walking home late last night 2 run away from me, i watched them jump on to the green electric, or phone wire box at the end of road, and then jump on the wall, which made there entrance pretty easy id say.


"sometimes theses geen boxes are located at the sides of roads against the side of house's"

I think that's just a lazy fox using the box as a jumping off point. Most of them can easily scale a 6ft+ fence if they put their minds to it. The only fences they have trouble with are solid metal ones - they need some sort of grip.
yeah i know pete, many times in the garden late at night casually smoking, cant tell if its a cat or fox sometimes when its to dark, could be a lazy one, wall is solid brick a good 9 feet with loads of broken glass on top, very annoying tho the howling when trying to sleep.

I have had foxes in my garden since I moved here a LONG time ago. They dig holes, under fences, next garden walls, trees you name it. If you take action and fill in the holes, guess what! They dig them again. I'm resigned to it!

    • And from what I remember, she eventually cut the tea shop for a similar  reason to chandelier.  Chariot style buggies
    • Oh yes, it could have been about there, I can't remember exactly. At one point there seemed to be a load of pizza places opening on NCR. I vaguely remember the one we used to use was put out of business by another one which opened. Wasn't Grace and Favour's food offering more of a tea shop at the back of the actual shop? If memory serves the owner, whose name escapes me now, was one of the earliest people I know to move to Hastings. Which must now be crammed with South East Londoners 🤣
    • That Neal Street veggie cafe was great. Food For Thought ❤️
    • Hi Dogkennelhillbilly, You won't be aware that i proposed infill sites for housing in East Dulwich - the garages on Bassano Street and Henslowe that respectively became 1-4 Dill Terrace family houses and the 78, 80, 80A Henslowe Street family houses. These were council owned garages and it was frustrating how slow the council was to go from my idea to completion (roughly eight years). East Dulwich has some other vacant WW2 bomb sites I'm guessing that the private land owners have been sitting on.Owe for a land tax for vacant land.  WRT to the builders yard by East dulwich station. Southwark Council has an agreed policy the area should remain suburban 2/3 storeys maximum. But the approved scheme is 9 storeys of student accommodation. Very hard to put this genie back in the bottle. The council has recently publicly stated lower ratios of social housing will be required. I will be amazed if the developer doesn't submit another application now they have the 9 storeys approved but with significantly less social housing. The less social housing the higher the land values. The higher the land values the less social housing viability reports state are possible.  If we really want to increase home supply - Southwark have over 6,000 empty homes. Vancouver charges a low % of the value of empty homes and rapidly eased this problem. Parts of Wales have introduced under Article 4 planning permission is required for second homes seeing within 12 months a dramatic decrease in property prices. Southwark Council have Article 4 requirements - why not add this one? It takes National political will to solve this AND regional and local authorities such as the second home council tax premium and these being used promptly.
