What can I do to deter a fox from my garden?

The best way to deter foxes from entering your garden is to ensure there is no food source available and if you have regular visits from foxes and wish to deter them use a repellent which can be used for cats & dogs and is safe for use with non target animals and children.

Should I feed the fox, which keeps appearing in my garden?

No as this will only encourage the fox to keep returning and it may become lazy and dependant on your feed.
