i was told to cover around the outside of run with humun urine ?
also to get human hair and put it in tights around the run ?
i am sure the experts will give u some better advice .

or buy a 12 bore shot gun and wait for him ..

Get yourself a FoxWatch that will discourage it from hanging around !

No idea if it's effective bit I've hung a load of CD's round the outside of the run on string at about 12-18" height. You could try hanging all sorts of stuff that makes a noise or twists about.

We thought we had a fox visiting and have no evidence of it since.

I've seen your musical taste, no wonder it cleared off.
