    Found fox sh1t in the back yard.
    Is this particularly dangerous to Toddlers, apart from the obvious problem of him trying to eat it!!!.
    Any advice will be appriciated espicially if it supports my argument to get another gun.;)

    Roundworm, tapeworm and heartworm are some of the more serious parasites that foxes carry. Its also common in dogs and cats, but with vet treatment in most countries there is usually few cases of it.

    The diseases caused by fox tapeworm can be fatal to humans in some instances, but it would require ingestion of fox sh!t, and with a child or young kid playing then putting their hands to their mouths its a real risk. I'm not trying to be sensationalist, but its vital to keep the area fox clean or generally cleaned after the fox.

    Make sure you hit him because if you miss you'll frighten the sh1t out of him!:D
