    Bearing in mind that I am Scottish, the idea of selling my urine is somewhat appealing. However, I have a feeling that I would rapidly run into supply issues.....................

        Jeyes Fluid may work FC if you can put up with the smell. :)

                Sorry but even urban foxes are vermin so I would be applying a lump of lead between the eyes here. Is there anyone that you know who has a rifle?

                Bearing in mind that I am Scottish, the idea of buying urine is somewhat unappealing! Perhaps I should put up a male toilet sign at the front gate!

                    Their not completely nocturnal but when they have a family to feed they'll operate 24/7. I've been fishing in the evenings and heard a Vixen calling/screaming.......it's a sound to chill your bones and raise the hair on the back of your neck!!:hate-shocked::snorky:

                      They are more shy/wary/cautious than nocturnal.

                          @Sheal - I actually like the smell of Jeyes fluid :redface: - not sure how the shrubbery would take to Jeyes being all over them though.

                          I might have known that you lot would take the pi55 out of me having to pi55 in the garden to counteract the fox pi55 :biggrin:
