What to put in a pot so that dogs and cats avoid indoor plants
If there are pets in the house, it is dangerous to place pots with indoor plants on the floor and windowsill.
The fact is that cats and dogs often pay attention to these flowers.
Meowing pets love to climb into flower pots. In addition, four-legged friends can knock over containers.
And these are not the worst consequences. A real tragedy can happen if the animal starts eating the leaves: many indoor flowers are toxic to pets.
Luckily, there is an easy way to stop your plants from attracting fluffy creatures.
What to put in a pot
Many cats and dogs cannot stand the smell of citrus fruits.
Therefore, it is worth putting lemon or orange peels into the container.
Most likely, the animal will not even come close to the plant next to which a source of a hateful aroma has appeared.
It also makes sense to pour drops of diluted lemon juice over the plant. But first, you need to make sure that such a procedure will not harm the flora.
It is possible that pets will approach the pot despite the presence of a citrus smell. In such a situation, it is better to remove the plants altogether to avoid dangerous consequences.
