I need to know what people think the best way to stop cats from peeing and pooing in my garden?
I've recently heard about a plant that I think could be the solution to your unwanted cat visitors. It's called Coleus Canina (also known as Scaredy Cat Plant) which has purposely been been created to repel cats from gardens.





Experiments with over 300 plants have now produced the ultimate deterrent. Cats, dogs and even foxes will avoid the Pee-off plant as it's affectionately known. This attractive Coleus has excellent foliage and small, attractive spikes of blue flowers in the summer, and releases a stench that cats can't stand. Thankfully it only smells to the human nose when touched! Annual, but can easily be propagated and cuttings kept in a frost-free place over winter. Plants need to be established before the smell is released, be in drier rather than wet soil and planted every 1-2 metres (36 inches apart). Supplied as cell-raised plants.





Further plant details;





Half-hardy Annual


Flowers: August to September


Height: 24 inches


Position: Sun or Partial Shade





You should be able to find this plant at a garden centre locally or on-line.





Good luck.
