Me: i can't stop the urban foxes digging up the garden.🫠
probably because you are not allowed to have rifles and night vision. they are nocturnal and crafty little buggers.
i never even heard of ways to trap these little fuckers, best i can do is point at a fox hide my mother owns that her farmer friend shot with a rifle. no idea even how he did that all things considered, but then, i sat on the back of his ute one time and watched him put a bullet straight through the middle of the brow of a roo one time. that also sits in my mother's possession last i was there.
two options:
- build ridiculously strong fences against them (like, concrete walls over 5 feet tall
- move somewhere you can get away with using NV gear and a light rifle to shoot those fuckers.
have i missed anything?
