    Hi , would anyone have plans to build a Fox trap , a mate is having trouble with foxes at some bird pens right beside the house , so cant really shoot the fox in that location. He wants to make or buy a trap urgently, he is in north Co Dublin if anyone knows where he can buy one. If not if there is a link to a set of plans that would be very much appreciated.

    Thanks

    Any big cage trap big enough to hold a small to medium sized dog will do the job. The other option is snaring but that still leaves you with the need to dispatch on site.

    Cant use snares , family pets around during the day, if one gets caught in a cage , no harm done
