Hi, i recently covered some areas front and back of my property with wood chippings to stop weeds growing and to make it look better which has worked a treat, but now it is used by most of the cats in my area as a toilet.
I have cctv fitted and they trigger my recording area every night, so the next day i can see them coming in to do their business.....there seems to be more and more....the word must be out!
Obviously i have Googled this problem but it is a minefield of advice and nothing specific comes up to remedy this problem apart from lion poo or air rifle?
Lion poo is ridiculous and tbh it just another form of crap in my garden that i don't want, and as far as the air rifle goes i actually do like cats but i'm allergic to them lol.
Every time i did find something promising (orange peel, chilli powder) there was always someone who posted "I tried this and it didn't work"....so come on guys what really works?
p.s I have a small child so it has to be something safe.
