FOX TRAPPING SERVICES IN MELBOURNE

Fox Trapping Melbourne — Professional, Humane, Targeted

Fox trapping is one of the most effective and targeted methods for managing fox populations on residential and commercial properties. Unlike broad deterrent measures, trapping allows for the precise removal of individual animals that have established territory on or near your property — minimising disruption to your home, livestock, or land.

Fox Removal Melbourne has over 35 years of hands-on experience deploying and managing fox trapping programs across Melbourne and regional Victoria. Our team holds the required Animal Welfare Victoria approvals for leghold trapping, ensuring every program is conducted legally, humanely, and in full compliance with Victorian wildlife regulations. We handle everything from initial assessment through to trap placement, daily monitoring, and humane dispatch — so you don't have to.

Property Assessment and Fox Activity Analysis

We begin every job with a thorough inspection of your property to identify fox entry points, den locations, trails, and activity patterns. This ensures trapping is targeted and effective from the outset. 

Leghold Trapping (Animal Welfare Victoria Approved)

We hold the required Animal Welfare Victoria approval for leghold trapping — one of the most effective methods for targeting individual foxes. All traps are set, monitored, and managed in strict accordance with Victorian animal welfare standards. 

Live Cage Trapping

Where appropriate, we deploy live cage traps to capture foxes without injury. This method is particularly suited to urban and suburban environments where community sensitivity is a consideration. 

Daily Trap Monitoring and Checking

All traps are checked at least once daily as required under Victorian regulations. Our team monitors every placement to ensure animal welfare standards are maintained throughout the program. 

Humane Dispatch and Carcass Removal

Once captured, foxes are humanely dispatched by our licensed operators. We handle all carcass removal and disposal — you won't need to deal with any of it.

Yes, fox trapping is legal in Victoria, but it requires the correct licences and approvals. Fox Removal Melbourne holds all required authorisations, including Animal Welfare Victoria leghold trap approval. You should never attempt to set fox traps yourself without the proper permits — it's both illegal and potentially dangerous. 


This depends on the number of foxes, the size of the property, and how established the fox activity is. Most residential trapping programs run over several days to a couple of weeks, with daily trap checks. We'll give you a realistic timeframe after assessing your property.
