 Taxi driver foxed - VxFan
Foxes with a taste for rubber have repeatedly chewed through the cables on a taxi.

The taxi driver, who lives in Ardrossan Gardens, Worcester Park, said foxes have attacked his cables on four occasions.

Two years ago a neighbour who lives just in the same road had the brake lines on her car gnawed through twice.

Foxes are known to be attracted to rubber and it is not uncommon for them to bite car cables which can cause accidents as well as forcing drivers to spend money replacing the damaged parts.

Squirrels like gnawing rubber too. They once gnawed through the connecting tube from the Calor Gas cylinders kept outside.

A brush with the law presumably. Police are said to be keeping a tally.

You can get stainless steel slinky coils to protect hydraulic hoses.

A bowl of dog meat, chocolate and antifreeze should see them off.

My daughter lives in the adjacent road to that. I've seen the foxes round there and they're around in daylight. One jumped onto her garden fence whilst we were in the garden and would've calmly carried on its way if I hadn't jumped up and scared it off.

She came home from a run, left her trainers on the front step only for them to disappear! The foxes got the blame! Trainers ain't cheap.

If I lived round there, I reckon I'd get a BB gun and harass the damn things.

Probably for the other 2 legs to go with the other pair stolen from BB's daughter.
