Yesterday I went to use the Mrs car and saw the low brake fluid warning so waited till she got home with some fluid to refil the totally empty resovoir and check for where it must be leaking from. Found a feccin hole chewed in the flexi-hose at the back.Arrhhh.
Today, the Mrs leaves for work in my car and comes back 5 mins later saying the brakes don't feel right. Have a look. No fluid and a hole chewed through one of the front pipes!!!!!!!
Sent the Mrs out with a note to drop off to the neighbours to warn them of the problem and discover that three of them, didn't speak to them all, (out of about 12) have had similar issues in recent months.
All the cars have been damaged whilst parked outside on the road. :(
Now the question.
How can I legally kill the fuckers?????
Garden is too small to deploy my favoured hot lead injection method and apparently its illegal to poison them. My dogs keep them out of my garden too.

or, I know it's illegal to poison them, but just say you accidentally left a chicken carcass laced with something a bit poisonous by your car...... (only problem is local cats becoming collateral in that case)
Don't get in pest control, we got a quote and it was silly money. Plus once you kill the foccer another one comes in to take it's place, but hopefully you'll only need to kill the one that's learnt to eat brake lines.

Had a quick look round and found this linky - the taup is a pain, radio would probably work but a ball ached & you'd probably drive over it, so looks like the Scoot stuff. Linky on the right of the page to Scoot and other ideas.
Good luck BB.

£150 a week for the cage followed by £150 a time for each fox it traps.

That is a stupid price to pay. As it is a common occurrence down your road, maybe the local council should be involved?

Getting the local media to have a sniff at it now. Its already cost me £300 in ABS sensors. Will cost me another £50 for the Mrs car today and fec know what to get my Santa Fe done by the main dealer.

You could easily make a fox catch cage, where are you in this country?

Foxes have been staying out of my way though I did see the cheeky feccers laying out in the sun last weekend on the local school field.
