Urban Fox Control
London
Pest Control Companies that catch and release urban foxes may be breaking the Law.
Moving foxes from one area to another is not appropriate in
terms of disease management or considered humane.
The trapping and relocation of foxes may contravene
The Animal Welfare Act 2006 and other legistlation.
The Animal Welfare Act 2006 replaced The Abandonment Act.

Anyone that is advertising fox control will know this.
The main reason some pest control companies
trap and release nuisance urban foxes is because
they do not have or cannot obtain the necessary
licence required to legally and humanely control
urban foxes.
It is also a misconception that you can move a wild
animal to a new area, release it, and it will instantly
settle down and live happily ever after.
By relocating urban foxes encourages the spread of disease.
Since dumping of animals like this is clearly inhumane,
such action may be seen as an offence under
The Animal Welfare Act 2006.
A £5,000 to £20,000 fine may be imposed under
The Animal Welfare Act 2006 to offenders if caught.
Finally, many people do not want foxes released
on their land, especially farmers and livestock
producers.
