Hi everybody

Probably been asked a thousands times before, sorry, but what is the
most effective thing I can do about stopping cats crapping in the
wife's pot plants which are outside on the balcony?

Best regards

If the plants are in pots why not cover the soil with slate/pebbles etc.
The cats like to dig around in the soil.

Apart from more extreme pest control measures, try this:

I found orange peel and/or coriander works.

Feed them.

Try Chicken and wallpaper stripper. If they come back the following day.
Beef and warfarin (100mg). Job done!

Here are my three steps to a cat-free garden:-

1 Trap

2 Drown

3 Repeat as necessary


As I've stated before, I have employed the three steps above for
nearly 30 years and not *once* have they failed.

Good luck!

Walter.

Short, sharpened bamboos, say 6" long, inserted blunt end into the soil
with pointed end upwards. if they can't lower their arses to the
ground, then you've sorted the problem. Always worked for us in the
wife's begonia pots.
