the badgers are after worms in your lawn so that wont be easy . id be tempted to set up a hide and watch them myself . maybe feeding them will keep them of your lawn . they love dog food .

I find they are worst for damaging grass in winter. When we had grass - it wasn't good enough to be called a lawn - it used to look like a scale model of The Somme by the end of the cold weather. All I've found to do is replace any divots you can find and reseed the worst patches.

i like it beatie . lets face it a badger is a jcb on legs realy . ive never been lucky enough to see one alive thow i live in the countrty side .
