old and shabby cat

Is a feral cat wreaking havoc in your flowerbed that you worked so hard to perfect? Perhaps you can’t even open the window because an outside cat is disturbing the peace with your indoor animals.

我们喜欢猫,但我们理解为什么你不希望猫围绕你的院子漫游。流浪猫可以携带疾病, and you don’t want them passing anything on to you or your pets. Fortunately, there are non-toxic, natural, and safe home remedies you can try.

注意:家庭疗法不是专业医疗建议的替代品。如果您的宠物有严重的问题,请立即咨询您的兽医。 分隔猫

1。Large Landscaping Rocks

如果你有豌豆砾石,那么独自不会让猫从你的院子里和花坛里保持猫。砾石可以模仿垃圾箱的外观,所以你需要没有那种效果的东西。由于猫无法挖掘,任何大型园林绿化岩石都很好地工作。他们可能会变得无趣并继续前进。

pros
  • 无毒
  • 看起来很棒的景观
cons
  • 可以昂贵
  • 不适用于整个院子

2。鸡丝

鸡丝可以非常有效和廉价的修复。鸡丝works well because cats don’t like the feel on their pads, so it’ll prompt them to move on. If you can lay the wire flat on the ground in your garden, the better it’ll work. However, this may prove difficult if you already have plants. You can cut the wire with theproper tools, allowing you to lay the wire around your plants.

pros
  • 有效的
  • No need to replace each year
cons
  • 如果你需要良好的金额可能会贵
  • 可能是耗时的
  • May look unattractive to you

3.细绳

You’d think that having a fence alone would keep cats out, right?错误的。Cats can leap pretty high, so you need something to scare them off your fence. Running string along the top can be a deterrent and worth a try.

pros
  • 廉价
  • 易于设置
cons
  • 需要战略性地放置有效性

4.

任何看到猫都弄湿的人都知道猫通常对水不喜欢。但是如何用水来有效地保持猫逃离?在看起来不断看望几乎是不可能的,但幸运的是,有一个选择。一种运动探测器喷水隆起will turn on automatically when the unwanted cat strolls into your yard. Another way to use water is to spray away any cat urine. Watering a little bit daily can help keep unpleasant urine odors at bay.

pros
  • 水是自然的,安全的安全性是威慑物
  • 有效和简单
cons
  • May not always catch cat at the right time to spray
  • 运动探测器喷头可以是昂贵的

5。猫排斥植物

一些植物对猫有毒,因此将不需要的猫留出您的院子,您需要植物安全,无毒的植物。Lavender, rue, and rosemary plantswill make a cat turn its nose up and walk away.

pros
  • 自然安全威慑力量
  • Cheap and easy to plant
  • Can add excellent additions to your garden
cons
  • 可能需要几个工厂,具体取决于该地区的大小
  • Not all plants are safe for all animals

6。撒上咖啡渣

That morning cup of joe serves more than the purpose of waking you up. It also can be used as a natural and safe way to keep cats away. Simply sprinkle your wet coffee grounds in the necessary areas around plants and borders. Remember to always use wet, used coffee grounds because干咖啡渣可能有毒由于咖啡因。

pros
  • 可生物降解
  • 土壤良好的浓缩
  • 适合你的植物
cons
  • 定期适用的需求
  • 可能不会排斥所有的猫
  • 绝不use dry grounds due to toxicity

7。双面胶带

正如我们已经提到的那样,猫讨厌他们的爪子,录像带是其中之一。如果你注意到猫沿着围栏散步,只需将胶带沿着顶部放置。当猫跳到围栏上时,它会讨厌这种感觉,可能不会再试一次。

pros
  • Simple and cheap
  • 有效的
cons
  • 不会在木栅栏上工作
  • 需要经常更换

8。保持垃圾盖关闭

A wandering feline will indeed be attracted to your yard if there’s trash. Keeping your yard clean and garbage can lids closed will help in keeping cats away. Another trick is to freeze certain smelly items before putting them in your trash to reduce the smell. For example, if you feasted on shrimp one night, freeze the shells and wait until trash pick-up day to put them into your outdoor trash receptacle.

pros
  • 阻止其他动物
  • Makes your home look better
cons
  • May not control the area in question

9。删除鸟类饲养者

我们知道这个选项是鸟类爱好者的拖累,但有鸟类饲养者可能会导致您不需要的客人。如果这似乎是一个可怕的概念,请尝试暂时删除饲养者以及尝试任何上述想法,以查看猫是否消失。如果猫继续前进,那么将馈线带回来。

pros
  • 消除猫的吸引力
cons
  • 消除鸟类爱好者的鸟类

10。Make Your Own Deterrent Spray

你可以在家里制作自己的喷雾,但是要特别谨慎,以确保你放入喷雾剂无毒。有些建议使用citrus剥离,但如果猫摄取它们,这可能会有毒。最好坚持安全,无毒的成分。混合组合迷迭香extract and water is a safe option.

pros

  • 安全和自然
  • 易于制作

cons

  • Need to spray often
  • 可能无法作为独立解决方案
