How can I prevent foxes chewing my brake lines?
I started a new job in Ealing in Autumn 2002. On driving the minibus the brakes failed. The repairers said it was down to foxes chewing through the brake lines. Two weeks after repair it happened again. Same culprits. It then stopped. It appears that they die rather quickly from the habit. It has not happened since.

Yes, I don't recommend drinking brake fluid. But this has been recommended to keep them away: Anti-vermin (protects against mice, rats, foxes and pine martins chewing wiring and brake pipes) from www.terrasan.de
