Foxes

[Dymetrie]

At the new and improved Chateau Dimtree there's a slight problem with foxes getting into the bins.

It's a purpose-built low-rise block and out the back there's a little bin chamber which is open plan and has little compartments for each bin (Our Council hasn't upgraded to wheelie bins yet). Most of the bins are quite old and don't have lids.

Quite often we'll find that foxes have been at the bins after the tasty tidbits which can be found in general household rubbish. It's a bit of an annoyance but nothing too bad.

Unfortunately one of the flats has a small child. Obviously the waste product of the baby, whilst sensibly packaged, end up in the bins as well.

This morning there are 7 (yes, SEVEN) baby waste containers strewn around, although only a couple appear to have been 'tampered' with.

So the question is this. Do foxes REALLY love baby poo, or are the parents of the child just dumping the nappies on the ground?

I think there is something in babys nappys that Dogs are attracted to, some kind of aroma, Prob the same for Foxes, Then I s'pose it depends on what the baby has eaten on whether they fancy some baby chocolate.

They can probably smell the food that has gone through the baby
