Yup, my garden is covered in the stuff. I am also somewhat of a garden enthusiast (not very good at it but enjoy it all the same) but due to how good my soil is I get the cat from across the road crapping in it. Anyone got any experience with how to keep it out?
I'm starting to get really pi##ed off with it to be honest as for the last 3 years I have also had moles come up in my grass as it's well maintained and the amount of worms I have are unbelievable but now the whole cat thing is testing to say the least. Any ideas?

My Dad put out 2ltr fizzy pop bottles filled with water, and it worked, but they looked bloody awful

We had that problem what worked us was the ultrasonic animal deterrents. We've three in our garden and plastic scat mats (get them from Amazon) they come on a roll basically a mat full of plastic spikes which you tent peg out - place them where you thing the cat is gaining entrance to your garden assuming you've grass - that worked for us

Else chicken wire the whole grass area wiring it up to a car battery (only joking 🙃

Ok...

1 - if you've got lots of good worms then get a tub and some newspaper and get yourself some bait for a bit of perch fishing

2 - moles... a big plastic hammer and make a game of it?

3 - cats... as a cat owner I can't condone any feline related violence. I don't think they care how good your soil is just that it's accessible. The poo might even be enriching it... apparently the sonic things work well. I've heard that little mirrors do too. They're very self conscious and don't like to see themselves ****ting on your garden.

Plus the added bonus of making your garden look twice it's actual size.

There's one flowerbed in my front garden I can't stop the ****ers capping in, tried scent granules, ultrasonics and shooting them with the super soaker

I'm just waiting for the things to die now, nearly everything planted out there is lethal to cats apparently (happy accident)

Clearing the crap and a regular sprinkle of highly diluted jeyes fluid has been the most effective thing but it's obviously not good for the plants of anything living in the soil.

Cat **** isn't good for the soil either

Thx guys, I will take a look at the sonic option 👍
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
