Jeyes Fluid

[giveup]

Would it hurt to put diluted Jeyes Fluid on my lawn,its about the only thing that seems to stop cats pooing on my lawn,but if I do it regularly would it do any damage. Thanks for any advice.

[tonyav]

I wouldn't if I were you giveup, Jeyes is powerful stuff, I think it would damage your lawn.

Have you tried the cat and dog repelled sprays you can get?

[giveup]

You name it, I,ve tried it, even so called lion poo.

[tonyav]

Time to use the water pistol then, giveup, or a washing up liquid bottle full of water.

Tony my lawn is quite small but I like lawns and am trying to get it in a really good condition because there are some bare patches and its usually where these cats poo. I feel sorry for them really they are not well treated by their owner who is a bit odd,but why pick on my lawn.

Get a dog. We've got 2 Yorkies .... we've been in our house for just over 7 years and we've never had a cat problem. We have a cat flap so the dogs can come and go as they please.

[giveup]

I have got a huge water pistol,but couldn't work out how to fill it. My daughter said she will do it tomorrow.

[Gizmonster]

Just as an after thought, I don't know they layout of your garden, but could you put them strips along the top of your fence, with little spikes on them ?? Cats find it almost impossible to climb or walk along a fence with these on.

[tonyav]

Ohhhhh, is one of those Super Soaker water pistols giveup ?.

[giveup]

Yes Tony it is a super soaker but its a bit complicated for a fool like me.

[woofgang]

It will burn holes in your grass and is also poisonous to pets and wildlife (and people)

[giveup]

On the other hand they are never around when I am,I'm sure they wait until I go out.I did throw a jug of water over one but I did feel mean.
Gizmonster,the trouble is they go under the gate.

[tonyav]

LOL, giveup that thing will knock them of their paws !.

[giveup]

Woofgang,any suggestions.

[March-Hare]

Shoot at the cats ..... with a water pistol. No lasting harm done but they will think twice before coming back!

[tonyav]

Heres an idea giveup, you could try scattering Orange and Lemon peel around the garden. Cats hate anything citrus.

[giveup]

Done that Tony,the borders look like a greengrocers. I wouldn't mind but there is a huge field just across the way and other gardens as well as mine.

[tonyav]

Righto then giveup, looks like the little blighters are going to have to have a blast from a Super Soaker then.

[giveup]

They wont know whats hit them. I will do it every time they slink past me.

[tonyav]

I think thats the only way, giveup, they'll soon start avoiding your place after a few blasts with the Super Soaker. My kids used to have those things, boy they are powerful for water pistols.
