How to keep cats out of my garden?

Question

Due to the overwhelming success of the "Gripperods" on the fence experiment, I am unable to try another, which involves tarring the top off my fence with the type of grease you get on lorry "5th- wheel" couplings, that would hopefully have left them in a similar S****y state to how they used to leave my garden! Would this have been as satisfyingly successful?

Answer 1

try using lemonade bottles half filled with water and lay them in your garden cats don't like them for some reason

Answer 2

I wouldn’t use the Jeyes fluid trick as this is highly poisonous to cats. Unless, of course you don’t care.

The suggestion to get a dog is a good one. Also, tom cats are very territorial and won’t let other cats in. If you have him neutered, he will not stray far either. The orange peel idea I have heard works, though I haven’t tried it myself.

A solution I have found to work like a dream is moth balls. Bury them an inch or so below the soil surface. A yard or so apart in the place the cats lie or walk. Cats hate the smell of the naphthalene used in old moth balls and the 1,4-dichlorobenzene used today. (Naphthalene is flammable, hence its use being discontinued).

Answer 3

  I prefer a high pressure watter hose or a pellet gun. Both are highly efficient.

Answer 4

Answer 5

Answer 6

Put down some orange peals. Cats haaaate oranges!

Sonic pet repeller.

Just remember that cats help get rid of mice & rats though.

Answer 8

Tea bags soaked in Jeyes fluid, just drop them in between your plants.

Answer 9

Try Teabags and orange peelings scattered around the garden I've heard that works
