Cat Deterrent Talk.? All post of this nature in this thread only.. Humane talk only please.!

00000000000000000000000000015810I've posted this on another thread ages ago but Wilkinsons do an excellent cat repellent spray. It's totally harmless containing orange and mint. It works brilliantly. We have plenty of laughs now as we'll see a cat come sauntering up doing the big " I' m the king ' act, then all of a sudden they shoot off in the opposite direction at 90 miles an hour

PS....... Only costs £1-75 a bottle which lasts us about 2 months.

 

Wire netting has been working for us so far. Like you said it's not been very pleasant, with wire nettings along our front garden! i've also used water pistols on them which works, although its very hard to squirt them on target

 

Silent roar, ultrasonic deterants have not worked at mom's, the only two things that have so far. Cut up old pieces of hose pipe in between plants cats don't like cucumbers if you've seen the video on YouTube and the other is keep used tea bags and soaked in Jayes fluid left near were they poo..

 

I am currently testing a creature deterrent that is humane and works automatically. I'll report back when the company authorizes me to make my findings public. So far, all I can say is "wow, want another one!"

 

I may have mentioned this before......but it's worth mentioning again in this thread.

In my efforts to keep Alfie in the garden - I have come across a method of keeping other cats out.

Willow screening attached to fencing panels seems to work - Alfie cannot climb up the panel and if it rises over top of the fence other cats cannot jump onto the top of the fence.

I have definitely mentioned the upside down plastic fork approach to stop cats from digging up young plants.

 

Hi,

Have a nice golden privet hedge about 3ft high along the boundary of the front garden.

Discovered some what I thought was brown die back vertical patches the other day, only to realise from the smell around them that it was cause by cats spraying, partic at the end of the hedge where they walk around.

Tried carefully putting a solution of Jeyes Fluid on some stones etc nearby but even the stink of that does not seem to deter them.

While the water sprayer I have in the back garden works a treat, cannot really use it in the front garden where folk are passing by.

Any ideas as to a product that would deter them spraying the hedge ?

 

Spray any area with 10.4g/L of Aluminium Ammonium Sulphate and it will deter most animals including cats, dogs, birds and rabbits.

 

Hi,

Assume you mean 10.4g of the dried crystals you can buy small pouches of on ebay ?

Do you know of any version of it ready mixed in a sprayer you can readily buy ?

Importantly, what effect does it have if it catches the plants ?

We have a golden privet hedge almost overlapping some lawn that one cat in partic sprays it up to 2 ft high and along a patch several feet wide, could it be sprayed direct onto the hedge ?
Tried many things without success.

The hedge is between the garden and the footpath so cannot use our PIR water sprayer which is highly effective in the back garden.

 

Another name for Ammonium aluminium sulphate is alum, a common use is in deodorants, also used in tanning, dying, water treatment and fire resistant textiles. Not immediately obvious why it should deter cats or anything else, there again it's unlikely to harm anything it's sprayed on.
