Animal fouling and dead animals

Report animal fouling or a dead animal.

Reporting animal fouling 

You can report animal fouling using the Love Clean Streets website or app. You can download the app from the Apple or Google Play stores.

Dog fouling

We take a zero-tolerance approach to dog fouling on our streets and in our parks and open spaces. Help create a Cleaner Lewisham by ensuring you clean up after your dog.

When walking your dog, make sure you have bags or a poop scoop to clean up any mess. Every time your dog fouls, bag it and bin it. 

Reporting dead animals

You can report dead foxes or badgers in a public area or public street using the Love Clean Streets website or app. You can download the app from the Apple or Google Play stores.

We aim to remove dead foxes and badgers within 24 hours (excluding weekends and bank holidays).

We're unable to remove dead animals from railway tracks - report them to Network Rail.
