I need to catch him and get the fox to a vets as soon as possible. “There is no need for these traps to be used, especially in the open where cats, foxes and other animals are getting their paws and faces caught in them. “If you see anyone setting these traps, even in their private gardens, name and shame them, take photos. People in that area are seriously angry and want to find out who is setting these vile traps.” See also: Dog walkers warned as number of pets treated for adder bites soars See also: Poisonous caterpillars in Hastings and Rother can cause a nasty rash
