Hi folks I am amazed about all the other pesty issues which we Europeans don't have to deal with! Sounds to me, we have a book lurking there.......

I agree that predator urine is the best non-toxic deterrent to pest mammals. I had great success in encouraging skunks to vacate the premises under my house when I sprinkled cougar urine liberally around the hole they dug. Bear urine might be effective, or perhaps you can find some wolf urine (although I should think coyote, while non-native to the UK, would have the same effect as wolf? I’m finding an ad online for “thepeemart.com<http://thepeemart.com>” and they sell wolf urine as well. $21.99 in US dollars, so not very expensive. We have foxes at our museum, but since we have 54 acres and are in a semi-arid climate, there’s no well-manicured lawn to disrupt, only native plants in the landscape. Rattlesnakes and scorpions, however, are a different problem.
