Cat Nuisance!!
Can anyone recommend an good sonic cat deterrant, either solar or battery operated. Bought some solar rectangular ones about £12 each but useless.
Also are there any plants that cats hate? I am fed up of dealing with the foul mess. Thanks in advance.

Very diluted j e y e s fluid keeps them away ... I have a gravel drive and for some reason dog walkers think it's a toilet ... bit of the old j f puts them off

I have been bringing home the used coffee grounds free from Waitrose to deter slugs and it seems to be working for cats as well. And smells nice. And good compost. What more could one ask.
Also perhaps holly cuttings scattered around, and wooden kebab skewers driven into the ground, dull side out, might help. Just don't lean in quickly and poke your eye out.
And finally, I read that large plastic cola or water bottles etc, filled with water and left lying on the ground are deterrents. The cats don't like the slight movement and shininess of the water.

Nothing worse than finding catshit amongst your lettuces and having planters used as a cat ***.

These seem to work but you may need several depending on what area you want to protect.. I cannot find any water pistols with adequate range but have found that children's toy guns that shoot harmless missiles have a startling effect. Nothing worse than finding catshit amongst your lettuces.

Here are some more ideas. You will find that cats are intelligent, devious and what works for one cat may not work for another.
