About this deal
By copying smells, it fools foxes into thinking another animal has claimed their land, making them leave the place. In fact, a high percentage of FoxWatch owners also have cats and use the unit highly successfully to deter foxes without upsetting their cats. So, we want to protect our gardens from foxes, but how can we ensure that our cats aren’t inconvenienced at the same time?

Domestic cats and dogs do not need to rely on claiming territory in the same way wild urban foxes do and therefore will not be affected by Scoot. So, it’s very important that you spray Scoot multiple times – ideally every 2-3 days for a couple of weeks. The unique formula uses natural ingredients to deter cats and dogs from entering your property and digging, scratching or fouling your lawns or flowerbeds. Also any areas of "scorching" on lawns which will identify areas where marking is a factor and where persistant fouling is noted.Then, the scent-repelling products are either organic or chemical-based solutions that are formulated to mimic certain scents that tend to discourage foxes. There are high-pitched ultrasonic fox deterrents available, that are inaudible to humans, but be aware that these will also be heard by other wildlife and can cause distress. However, in the grand scheme of things, the battle for territory is not a life and death situation for a cat like it is with a fox. In terms of cleaning up after a fox, pressure sprayers perform a very practical function too, making it easy to spray a patio or decking with an even coverage of disinfectant. Furthermore, the height of the unit itself can also be elevated using the extension tube included in the kit.
