The beds laid out in the garden are especially popular with cats, who can use the carefully loosened soil as a litter tray or platform, which provides excellent opportunities for hunting birds.
Regardless of the purpose of the furry pet, the plantings suffer as a result.
Fortunately, there is one way that will definitely discourage your cat from causing mischief in the garden.
To do this, you will need the coffee grounds that remain in the cup after you enjoy the aromatic drink.
In addition to coffee grounds, which are likely to be found in every home, you will need to stock up on a bottle of essential oil.
Choose rosemary or citrus essential oil, a few drops of which should be mixed with coffee grounds.
For greater effectiveness, add orange zest to the resulting mixture, which should be pre-crushed.
All that remains is to sprinkle it in places where cats are not allowed. What is especially good about this method is that coffee does not harm the soil, which cannot be said, for example, about vinegar, which summer residents, out of ignorance, also use for the same purposes.
