Professional fox removal services for Melbourne homes, farms, and commercial properties. Trusted by Parks Victoria, local councils, golf clubs, and wineries across Victoria.
Foxes are adaptable, intelligent animals — and that makes them a persistent challenge for Melbourne property owners. Whether you're dealing with foxes denning under a deck, raiding a chicken coop, threatening livestock, or causing damage to a commercial property, a structured removal approach is essential.
At Fox Removal Melbourne, we've been managing fox populations across Victoria for over 35 years. Our team understands fox behaviour intimately — their movement patterns, denning habits, and seasonal activity — which means we resolve problems efficiently and prevent them from coming back.
We deploy humane trapping methods tailored to the specific environment — whether that's a residential backyard in Melbourne's suburbs or a large rural property on the urban fringe. Traps are monitored carefully and removed animals are handled in accordance with Victorian wildlife regulations.
Removal alone isn't enough. We identify how foxes are accessing your property and install appropriate exclusion measures — from fencing solutions to den blocking — so the problem doesn't return.
For larger properties, farms, and conservation areas, we design ongoing population management programs. This is the same approach we use for government and conservation clients including Parks Victoria and Melbourne-area councils.
We provide prompt and professional dead animal removal services across Melbourne. Whether it's a fox, rabbit, or other animal on your property, we'll safely remove and dispose of it in a hygienic and compliant manner.
Fox activity near children, pets, or livestock requires prompt action. We offer priority response for urgent situations across metropolitan Melbourne and surrounding regions. Call us directly on 0438 728 400.

Yes. All our methods comply with Victorian wildlife legislation and are designed to minimise stress to the animal. We use humane trapping and where appropriate, exclusion techniques to prevent foxes returning to your property.
Before trapping begins, we conduct a letterbox drop to notify neighbours to keep domestic pets restrained for the duration of the program. Trapping typically runs Monday to Friday, with traps checked every morning — any foxes caught are removed immediately and dealt with humanely in accordance with Victorian state regulations. Surveillance cameras are installed over trap sites to monitor activity throughout the program. We're available 24 hours during the trapping period should any issues arise.
