    Hi.

    I already asked this on the gardening forum but got no response so trying here.

    I have a few rabbits around my lawn and they're welcome apart from one problem. They're leaving their droppings around the tarmac, but particularly in one place, and it's getting annoying. Any idea how to discourage them from using that spot as their toilet?

    Thank.
    Mossie.

    Dig a pit/flower bed nearby or under a hedge for them, I'm not sure but I think they like to scratch over their deposits?

    Clean the tarmac with jeyes fluid to take the scent off it.

    I found something similar online, but from America, which referred to using bobcat or wolf urine. Both of which might be hard to get here I would guess:-)
