Cat poo in garden

    We dont have cats but there are a few neighbours cats that roam from garden to garden. Generally have no problem with cats apart from the amount of poo they have been leaving behind.
    I cut the grass yesterday and there was quite a bit. Is there anyway to prevent them from doing so - deterrent sprays or home made remedies?

    There is animal repellant that you can get to discourage digs and cats. However it is hard to cover a large area with them you should try per shop and garden shops. Lidl or Aldi used to have them now and again.

    It's unusual to find cat poo, most females bury there's. I suspect it is an unneuterd Tom or one that was older when neutered and has tomcat instincts.

    If he is doing it are n a few particular spots then put it down there. Best way however is to find points he is climbing to get in and put repellant on Feb e there

    I had this problem
    - I put safe plastic edging on the fence to dissuade cats from walking on the fence (worked a little)

    - I got a plug in sonic thing which was supposed to put off cats (seemed to help)

    Thanks for the suggestions.

    The grass had gotten long so maybe it was an attempt to bury it.
