Cats are wonderful creatures, but they can become a problem when they start coming into our property and damaging flower beds, opening garbage bags and leaving their traces everywhere.
If you have neighborhood cats that are constantly coming onto your property, you may need to take steps to keep them away.
Since cats are animals that use scent to mark their territory, install scent repellents to keep them away.
Certain smells, such as orange, lemon, coffee and garlic, can be very unpleasant to cats and therefore cause them to avoid your area.
There are many repellents that are specifically designed to keep cats away from certain areas.
These repellents usually contain scents that cats dislike, such as vegetable oils and aromatic plants.
Restricting access to your property is an effective way to prevent neighborhood cats from constantly showing up.
Certain methods, such as installing a fence or tripwire, can help you cat-proof your property.
If all three of the previous methods do not work, ask your neighbors not to let their cats outside.
If you can establish the right relationship, you may be able to negotiate with them so that they take responsibility for their pets and do not allow them onto your property.
Ultimately, the method you choose is up to you. You can start with simple solutions, such as installing odor repellents in your area, and move on to more complex methods if that doesn't work.
The main thing is not to lose patience and continue to act until the problem is resolved.
