Foxes in my neighborhood Several foxes were located in my neighborhood so I asked my vet about preventive measures and did some searches on my own. My vet suggested a motion activated sprinkler system or motion activated alarm. I opted for the sprinkler since all the alarms were really loud. My alarm company could add it to my house alarm but that would really be loud. Not sure my neighbors have a sense of humor or concern about my dogs when a loud alarm goes off at 3 AM because a neighbors cat entered my yard.
The motion activated sprinklers are working out well. I turn them off when the dogs are outside and back on when they come in. It is more work but it gives me peace of mind that my babies are safe. A few of the neighbors cats are upset about the new sprinklers but I can live with that! |
