Danger Of Fox Infestation

European red foxes are the common fox species found in Australia. They can adapt themselves to urban environments, inner-city, and deserts areas easily and comfortably.

These foxes take rest during the day and become active at night.

These types of foxes, if not removed timely from your surroundings, may create the following problems:

  • They are the aggressive pest species that create ecological imbalances, causing a threat to the survival of many marsupial species in Australia.
  • They attack domesticated animals like poultry and sheep and impact the agricultural and poultry industries.
  • They cause damage to irrigation systems and horticultural crops.
  • They pose serious threats to ground-nesting birds, turtles, and more.
  • Though foxes do not attack humans, the studies show that they are responsible for spreading Australian Bat Lyssavirus (ABLV) to both animals and humans.

Signs Of Fox Infestation

Most of the foxes are active at night, and you may not see them directly during the daytime. Hence, it is difficult to know about fox infestation. If you notice any of the following signs, you can contact us for immediate inspection and fox removal service:
  • Traces of paw prints in your garden and backyard. You can inspect your surrounding for the paw prints for a few days to confirm the presence of this uninvited guest.
  • If you notice the missing of plant vegetables and fruits in your backyard, it could be due to the pest animal.
  • Fox digs a hole in the ground. The presence of unexplained holes in your garden or backyard can confirm fox invasion.
  • If any of your pets or livestock is missing, it may confirm fox invasion because the foxes attack small pets and livestock even when they have plenty of other food sources to feed.
  • If you see dispersed garbage from the cans, you can doubt their presence because they search their food in the garbage.
