Great fox deterrent

I was having trouble with the local fox population, using Scoot has helped me divert their attention elsewhere. Needs to be reapplied often in our wet rainy climate.

A waste of money and effort.

I used this at maximum concentration with a sprayer in a suburban garden to stop foxes digging and fouling. The next morning the digging was much worse, flower beds dug up, and it had not deterred the fox from leaping into the garden over the high fences which had all been sprayed, as well as the flower beds and lawn and patio.
A waste of time, money and effort - very annoying.

Didn't make any difference

I put the mixture near the area the fox came in and that evening a fox calmly walks past my window having totally ignored the smell. I put down more but they are still coming in. Perhaps it works in certain areas - but not mine 😔Read full review

Disappointed with results so far

Despite now buying this a few times and using it virtually every day to deter foxes from causing problems, they are still coming back on a nightly basis after 2 weeks despite making the strongest solution as recommended.

This may work for some people, but not for me at the moment.

I will persevere for a few more days in the hope of breaking the behaviour pattern of the foxes but at the moment don't hold out much hope......

Don't waste your money

Scoot is as much good as a chocolate fireguard. The claims made for its efficacy are false. It has no deterrent effect whatsoever. It is criminal that it continues to be sold when tests must have shown that foxes take no notice of it at all. Still having my flower and vegetable containers dug up by the pests. I am not pleased that I was forced to give it one star when zero would be more appropriate.Read full review

Works but only short term

I received 2 packets used as instructed and the fox disappeared for 4 days each time then just came back ! This way I would have to just keep buying this stuff which is not cheep. So it does work but temporarily....Read full review

Goodbye pesky fox

We have been plagued by a large fox using an area of our front garden as a toilet for some time, he digs up the grass before leaving us a large present in the hole. One packet (100gms) of Scoot used over three sessions and no more fox. I have since bought another box and will use it periodically. A very good product which appears to work as promised.Read full review

Scoot didn't scoot the foxes away.

Unfortunately this product didn't work the foxes are still in my garden making a mess and digging, maybe I needed a gallon of liquid every day to get rid of them.

No Difference

I followed the instructions carefully and applied the product. It made zero visible difference to the fox presence and they continued to use the garden as their dining room, play area and toilet. I haven't found a single scent based deterrent that is the slightest bit effective.Read full review
