Full details

The Foxwatch Electronic Fox Deterrent (FW001) is designed for homeowners and gardeners looking to protect their property and livestock from fox activity without causing harm. By utilizing advanced animal behavioral response patterns, the device effectively signals that a location is unwelcome to foxes. While it provides a reliable coverage area of up to 125 square meters, users should note that the device will also deter domestic dogs and requires either a 9V battery or an optional mains adapter for operation.

FAQs

Is the Foxwatch safe for my chickens?

Yes, the device is completely harmless to chickens.

Does the device hurt the foxes?

No, it uses animal behavioral response patterns to encourage the fox to move elsewhere, ensuring no physical harm occurs.

How long does a 9V battery last?

A standard 9V alkaline battery typically lasts between two to three months, depending on how often the device is triggered.

Can I use the device in the rain?

The device is designed for garden use, but ensure all connections and the battery compartment remain sealed against direct water ingress.

How much does the mains adapter improve performance?

Using the optional mains adapter can improve the device's performance by up to 30 percent.

Will this work on badgers?

The Foxwatch is specifically designed as a fox deterrent; while it may have some effect on other animals, it is optimized for fox behavior.

Troubleshooting

Device is not activating when a fox is present

Check the battery level and replace with a fresh 9V alkaline battery, or ensure the mains adapter is securely connected.

Reduced effective range

Clean the sensor lens of dirt or debris and check if the device is positioned at the correct height to detect animal movement.

Device is affecting domestic dogs

Adjust the angle of the unit so the detection range is limited to the specific area where the foxes are entering, avoiding areas where your dog spends time.

  • Covers a generous 125 square meter area
  • Compatible with mains power for increased performance
  • Safe for use around poultry and other livestock

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your Foxwatch, choose a location that maximizes coverage over the area you wish to protect. If using a 9V alkaline battery, ensure the battery compartment is sealed correctly to prevent moisture ingress. If opting for the mains adapter, ensure you use a weather-resistant connection point to maintain safety and device longevity.

Regular care involves checking the battery level every two months. If you notice the device failing to trigger, test the battery first before inspecting the sensor lens for debris or cobwebs that might obstruct the detection field. Keep the front lens clean with a dry, soft cloth to ensure the behavioral signal is transmitted clearly.
