Many summer residents are faced with the need to protect their plots from cats.
Sometimes our favorites, which we bring with us to the dacha, "play around".
Sometimes the neighbors' animals ruin the vegetable garden. In any case, it is worth taking a set of protective measures that will allow you to safely and reliably protect the area from cats, notes the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", scientist agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
What methods are worth knowing about?
Cones
If you have the opportunity to go to a forest with conifers, it is worth collecting more cones. It is believed that with their help you can create natural obstacles for cats.
Animals will not want to step on hard cones with their soft paws.
Natural barriers
Many people use nets and other covering materials to protect plants from "encroachment" by cats.
