DOG MESS- HELP!
10 Answers
We live in a very nice area, but it is spoilt by IGNORANT dog owners who let their dogs MESS outside our gates/brick piers. We & some of the neighbours are sick of having to hose down & clear up other people's DOGS MESS. Is there an effective spray, powder or explosive, that will deter these 'cute little animals' from this very discusting habit? Thanx.

I actually sprinkled loads of dustbin powder around the gates last night & I thought that as it's white, the irresponsible dog owners may take the hint! Also, the they only seem to venture out late at night, or very early in the morning, so there's not much chance of catching them. But believe me when I do, they will certainly get a mouthful from me! Cheers pepes.
Had the same problem myself and found that once I had written on the pavement in chalk a message to the effect of 'Please dont let your dog sh!t right oustside my gate' the neighbours did the same and the incidents were drastically reduced, the chalk was washed off and the problem solved.... this only works for dogs with their human owners as if the dog is unaccompanied it is too close to the writing to read it for itself :o)
I have a similar problem. I've even got the environmental wardens onto the problem. They're patrolling here more regularly. I can't seem to catch the filthy idiots who let their dogs do it there.
I'm unable to use the chemicals suggested... the area used by the dogs/owners is a patch of the grass verge right outside my driveway gate. If I use chemicals as suggested, it'll kill of all the grass on that area.
Any suggestions for me? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
