I'm struggling with foxes digging up my garden, and it's really frustrating since I've put a lot of work into it. I've tried using motion sensor lights, but I was also told about sonic sound devices. However, I'm concerned because there are also cats and dogs in the area—will these sonic devices affect them too? Do they actually work to keep the foxes away?

Sonic sounders are a mixed bag, and honestly, they can be pretty annoying. Some people think they work, but a lot of us just find them painful. I'd skip that option if I were you!
I recommend trying a water sensor that activates a sprinkler when the beam is broken. Foxes usually don’t like getting wet, and it works on other critters too, like cats. Plus, it’s less intrusive than sound!

Would I need to keep a hose connected to it all the time?
