I also have a problem with a baby fox digging holes in my pumpkin mounds. The little B**tard dug out my 1131 i replanted it and hoping it makes a recovery. Any suggestions to keep the fox out of the hills. I like em cause they keep the bunnies and the tree rats away from my garden

When I was a kid I read this book named "The King, the Mice, and the cheese"...so you have a fox because you had bunnies...now you need a mountain lion to get the fox.....could a patch elephant be far behind......?

Were you using any kind of fish fertilizer? They can smell it and will dig to find what they think is the buried fish.

Captain, yeah I would definitely stop with the fish, better that than lose a plant to a fox. As far as what to replace it with I'm not sure. Someone with more knowledge will have to help you there.

Don't know if this will work but maybe some sort of human scent may work, soap, deordorant,shampoo, ect.
