What do foxes do during the winter?

I'm not really sure I understand what your question means, did you mean why or how? I'll take a guess at a general answer. Winter affects all animals by the cold weather, but native animals are adapted to it, so they grow thicker coats of fur or fatten up for winter to hibernate. Foxes don't hibernate, so they are one that grows thicker fur. More important effect is how the weather changes what foods are available. Lack of food, not temperature, is what sends most migratory animals south. Animals like foxes are predators that don't migrate and they eat mostly rodents and rabbits. Some rodents hibernate in the winter, so they are harder for foxes to find and deep snow might make hunting more difficult.

How do you keep foxes away from your bins?

Think about it. Just look at the fox's head. It clearly has a much smaller and inferior brain than a human. It does not posess the higher cognitive reasoning functions we have, so it is extremely easy for a human to stop the fox from getting into the rubbish.

First of all, look at the problem. Obviously the fox knows the rubbish is there, or it would not know to go there. Also it must be reasonably accessible to the fox, which does not have hands, which would imply it uses its mouth to access it - i.e. the rubbish is fairly unprotected if a fox can get to it.

Secondly, address the problem. Foxes have an extremely good sense of smell so it may prove difficult to stop them knowing that there is rubbish there in the first place. However it is still worthwhile to try and wrap it up as much as possible, maybe by tying it shut in bags, or double bagging it. This will certainly reduce the smell and may have a mitigatory effect on the problem, but it is unlikely to solve it.

The main issue, I suspect, is putting the rubbish somewhere that a fox, with no hands, cannot access it but a human, with hands, can. Sounds pretty simple. For example simply putting the rubbish in a bin and locking it shut would stop it instantly, although this is not always possible. An easier solution would be to lock the rubbish in a shed or garage. Alternatively you could put a heavy weight on top of the bin to prevent the fox opening or overturning it, or even better, put it in a metal bin, but electrify it. No fox could get into that and as an added benefit you will get fox meat, for free. Animal lovers may wish to try more humane solutions such as burning the rubbish or even constructing their own custom bin with locks.

I personally would observe the fox getting into the rubbish to see what methods it employs. If you know how it does it then it should be pretty clear how to stop it.
