How do I persuade a fox living under deck to move elsewhere?

[Lollipop]

It is driving my dogs (and me and no doubt my neighbours) bonkers. The dogs are barking and digging at the deck trying to get at it. Unfortunately it is in the far corner and cannot be seen or reached. I assume it is a fox as it has been there two days. Just hope it is not a vixen who plans to have her babies there! Does anyone know the best way to persuade a fox that this is not a good place to live?

Put a hosepipe through or under the decking and let it run for a couple of hours at full flow.

If it has been there for two days without coming out, it may be sick or injured. Mating season doesn't typically start til January. You definitely don't want foxes living under your decking so once you've got it out, make sure to secure it so they can't move back in.

Try contacting a wildlife rescue centre to come and get it and have a look. If it is injured or ill they will take care of it. They can also just humanely relocate it too. Hose pipes and other methods to drive it away in fear will not help the animal.
