Default Keep stray cats out of your fenced yard.

This is a cool fence improvement.

Default Cat deterrent

I used to have stray cats come by and drop surprises in our garden all the time, but haven't seen one since we put of these in the yard 3 years ago.

I`d rather have mice. Least you can kill them and nobody gets upset, but kill one cat.......... Got 3 big dogs instead.

Poop is nothing. Its the cats that spray and mark the territory that should be rid of. Most awful smell ever and you cannot get that odor out of anything

I have a ex coworker that would use the live raccoon trap and trap cats in his yard. In the morning on the way to work he would drop them off in the bush. He had a wiener dog that the cats would harass. After about 2 weeks, no cats. No problem.

Line from an old House series episode. House to a woman dealing with cat allergies.
: If you have a burlap bag, I know where there's a river nearby.

Once a guy has the elevation and the tension correct this would be very effective.
