It seems to me that the fox problem is getting worse and worse.  It's obviously bad at this time of year as this year's cubs are kicked out to make their own way in the world.  But things have been worse all summer, with foxes brazenly about in daylight.

Two neighbours have reported foxes breaking into houses, even going upstairs and raiding wardrobes for leather shoes and bags.  No, these weren’t two-legged burglars trying to disguise their activities, these creatures leave a very distinctive mess.

My wife has posted on the 5RF website a guide to what little we can do about this (see http://www.fiveroadsforum.org/UrbanFoxes.pdf), but it seems that government, Council, RSPC etc. are united in washing their hands of any consequences.  Isn’t it about time that the definition of vermin was rethought, or do we have to wait for a child in their own home to be attacked before anyone does anything?
