Welcome to the sample letters section of Nuisance Neighbours.

It’s unfortunate when issues arise between neighbours, but it’s important to address them in a constructive and respectful manner to avoid the dispute escalating and relationships getting damaged.

In this section of the website, I have compiled a collection of sample template letters that can help you communicate your concerns effectively with your neighbour. These letters are meant to serve as a guide and starting point for drafting your own personalised letter.

I encourage you to use them as a template and customise them to suit your specific situation and neighbour dispute.

Before you send a letter to a neighbour, I would highly recommend that you talk to them face to face about the matter first, as the letter might be taken in the wrong way. However, I appreciate that you may not want to talk to them if your neighbour is unapproachable, rude or makes you feel uncomfortable.

When you send a letter to a neighbour regarding any neighbour dispute you should always keep a copy of the letter you have sent. If the dispute does escalate and you need to involve the council or a solicitor, it is helpful to have evidence. I have an article on gathering evidence that you might find helpful.

But now onto the sample template letter asking neighbours to stop feeding foxes…


Subject: Issues with Fox Feeding

Dear [Neighbour’s Name],

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention an issue that has been affecting me and my family. I have noticed that you leave food out to feed the foxes and this has attracted a large number of animals, causing a nuisance to mine and the surrounding properties.

I understand that foxes are fascinating animals and can be enjoyable to watch, but feeding them can attract larger numbers and cause them to lose their natural fear of humans. This situation has been ongoing, and I have been concerned about the potential health risks and conflicts with other wildlife and animals in the area.

The foxes have started to come into my back garden, leaving rotting foot, have dug up my flower beds and leave excrement on my grass. The foxes are also very loud at night and I am regularly woken up by them. I have also noticed rats are now in my garden because of the remnants of food that foxes leave behind. I am now worried about my children playing in the back garden.

I kindly request that you stop feeding the foxes and take steps to discourage them from visiting your property.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to me. I look forward to finding a solution to this issue and maintaining a positive relationship with you as my neighbour.

Thank you for your understanding.

Best regards, [Your Name, Address and Contact Details]
