Foxes may be fascinating to watch, but they can become a nuisance when they choose to den on your property. In Northern and Central California, three fox species are commonly found: the Red Fox, Kit Fox, and Gray Fox. These animals often dig dens under decks, porches, garages, and barns and may pose a risk to small pets and livestock. Foxes can also carry dangerous diseases such as rabies, putting both people and animals at risk. If you’re facing fox-related problems in the Northern and Central California, Critter Bros LLC offers professional, humane fox removal services. We’ll safely relocate the fox and implement solutions to prevent it from returning.
Foxes are highly adaptable and often thrive in urban and suburban settings. They’re known to raid trash cans, dig under sheds, and create dens near homes. As nocturnal animals, foxes are most active at night, so seeing one during the day isn’t necessarily a sign of illness or rabies. However, if you have small pets that could be seen as prey or are worried about structural damage, the best first step is to schedule a professional wildlife inspection with a NWCOA-trained expert.
During the inspection, our specialists look for signs like tracks, droppings, den holes, and nearby food sources. Based on the findings, we implement safe, humane removal methods tailored to your property. At Critter Bros, our team is trained in non-lethal techniques that ensure foxes are removed carefully and prevented from returning.
Rabies is the most well-known disease associated with foxes. It’s transmitted through bites and can infect both people and pets. Early symptoms include fever, headache, nausea, and pain or itching near the bite site. If rabies exposure is suspected, seek medical attention immediately.
Tularemia is another concern, spread through direct skin contact with an infected fox. It can cause fever, swollen glands, and skin ulcers. Both living and deceased foxes can carry the bacteria.
Toxocariasis, caused by roundworms commonly found in foxes, spreads through eggs in fox feces. Infected individuals may experience difficulty chewing or swallowing, seizures, heightened sensitivity, and in extreme cases, even blindness.
Mange, though rarely transmitted to humans, can still be contracted through close contact. It typically causes a rash that heals on its own within a few weeks.
To reduce the risk of disease, never handle a fox yourself. Instead, contact Critter Bros LLC for safe, humane, and professional fox removal services throughout the Northern and Central California

There are several ways to remove a fox from your property, but live trapping remains the most effective. Foxes are notoriously clever, making them difficult to catch without a solid understanding of their habits and diet. That’s why the trained technicians at Critter Bros LLC use expert strategies tailored to fox behavior to ensure safe, humane removal.
While there’s no proven chemical repellent to keep foxes away for good, there are steps you can take to help deter them. Removing food sources, securing trash, sealing entry points, and minimizing shelter areas can all make your property less appealing to foxes.
To keep foxes from returning to your property, it’s important to make the area as unwelcoming as possible. Clear away yard debris and food sources, use tightly sealed trash cans, and install protective fencing. A properly placed fence is often enough to deter foxes, and once blocked, they typically won’t try to return. Keep gates closed at all times, especially overnight, and seal off spaces under sheds, decks, or porches. These are prime spots for fox dens, particularly in fall and winter.
