Cats have the ability to jump and climb much better than we do; so much so that if you have a garden and there are furry ones nearby ... you may find them in it. If that happens to you, it is very important to stay calm. They do not usually cause damage to plants, so you only have to repel them if they use it as a toilet or because they are animals that are not to our liking.
Let us know how to keep cats out of the garden.
Protect your garden with wire mesh (grid)
The wire mesh, normally used to make chicken coops, it is very useful when you want to protect the garden. It is very easy to find - it is sold in hardware stores - and even the cheapest, if it stretches well, does its job very well.
With her, cats will not be able to get closer to your garden, so you won't have to worry about them anymore 🙂.
Put aromatic plants
There are a number of plants whose scent is very unpleasant for cats, such as lavender, wormwood, thyme, Brown or canine coleus, which is a plant called »antigato plant» since it repels them.
Sprinkle fruit peels
Most cats do not like the smell of citrus fruits, so you can take advantage of it to keep them away from your garden and, incidentally, fertilize it. Spread the peels of lemons, oranges, grapefruits, and the like and you will see how they do not come any closer.
Use a chemical repellent
In pet supply stores you will find ready-to-use cat repellants. You just have to spray those areas where you do not want them to go, being careful not to spray the plants to prevent them from wilting.
Eliminate odors
If they have already relieved themselves, it is important to remove the odors. To do this, you can pour white vinegar, which will remove your trace. In addition, you must remove the excrement, since not only will they attract the owner, but they are very harmful to the plants.
With these tips, no more cats will go to your garden, for sure 😉.
