Try: 1 tbs cayenne pepper 1 tbs garlic powder 1-2 drops of liquid dish soap 2 cups water Mix in spray bottle, spray around the area. Re-apply after rain. OR 2 tsp hot sauce 2 crushed cloves 2 tsp liquid dish soap 3 cups water Mix in spray bottle, spray around the area. Re-apply after rain. I've used this method to keep dogs from "shittin'" on the lawn. It won't hurt a lawn and I suspect not your flowers.
