Fights in beastly homes about nothing (3-3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

set-tos

'fights' is the definition.
(set-to is a kind of fight)

'beastly homes about nothing' is the wordplay.
'beastly homes' becomes 'setts' (badgers live in sets).
'about' is an insertion indicator.
'nothing' becomes 'o' (looks like zero - 0).
'setts' going around 'o' is 'SET-TOS'.

'in' acts as a link.

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
