plus7 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Hi, My neighbour has two cats. Those cats like to go to toilet on my lawn. I tried to scare them with fireworks (haha) but it does not work actually. The neighbour is from Switzerland and I think he would do something in Europe, but not in Thailand. So far he is only feel sorrow about it. So, please give me ideas how to take cats away from my lawn. I'm thinking about motion detector + water spray.

mistitikimikis Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 A had the same problem with curious neighbouring cats, being afraid that they will be torn apart by my dogs and not willing to have cat-s#@t in the sand I used big mothballs which seemed to help..........................

maprao Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 In the UK you can buy sticky green gel that puts cats off. Maybe you know a Brit going on vacation can get it for you. Available in most garden centers. Well it was 10 years ago anyway lol. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJCM Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 It sounds very funny, but it worked for a friend mine, he used a combination of clear see-through bottles (he used Soda bottles) half filled with Water (apparently cats don't like the reflection) and plastic toy snakes (those also gave his wife a scare every-time she walked past them ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artisi Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 A good quality air-rifle works wonders on stray cats - won't kill them but certainly lets them know to stay well away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly how I feel about neighbours cats - would you allow their dogs or kids to roam in your yard and crap everywhere - I don't think so.

They are very selective where they put their stuff. AND, unlike dogs, they bury it so no other critter locates it. Dogs are dirty, crap anywhere creatures, where as cats spend most of the day cleaning themselves and hiding their crap. Cat for me any day.

aussiebebe Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 There's a motion-activated water spinkler for sale on ebay called the 'Scarecrow' about $50 - that's probably the best way as it'll keep your lawn nicely watered! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plus7 Posted July 16, 2012 Author Share Posted July 16, 2012 Thank you for your replies, everyone. I'm trying mothballs now. I used airgun several years ago, but now it contradicts with my inner world Spinkler 'Scarecrow' is effective and sanuk-way, however 3 devices + delivery price is more than I want to spend on it. Besides, I ordered 2 times from USA, but got nothing. I think it is Thai post fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A very good and wellknown brand. http://www.antoni-uni-photography.com/Fauna-Antoniuni/Aves/Carrion-Crow/10486576_GX9LsL#!i=744722685&k=i6PDP&lb=1&s=A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there are so many places for a cat to get through or over a fence I'm not so sure the bottles really have much of an effect except in the mind of the person using them.

sms747 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Tried them all including gel, pepper, bottles and ultra sonic devices. They only thing that worked is an air rifle, you dont have to set it very powerful to kick the cats ass, won't do damage but will teach them a lesson they do not seem to forget.

wpcoe Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Another (folklore?) cat repellent is citrus peels scattered about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussiebebe Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Another (folklore?) cat repellent is citrus peels scattered about. Yes, I've heard that - another one is black pepper, cats are deterred by that for some reason. You'd probably bankrupt yourself spreading enough black pepper to protect an entire garden though. Another weird one; If cats are crapping in your flower-bed, sticking up-turned white plastic forks at random intervals can be effective. Ruins the look of the flower bed though!

Cat for me any day. and it is really nice when you stick your hands in cat muck whilst wotking in the garden. Such a pleasant aroma. Eat some oranges and place the peel all over the garden, that sometimes deters cats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
