Best Cat Repellers for Your Garden: What Really Works?
Lately, I've been spending a lot of time in my garden, trying to grow vegetables and keep the garden in good condition. But the biggest problem is not the weather or the soil, but my neighbours' cats. They constantly sneak into the garden, dig up the beds and leave a mess behind. I've tried spraying them with vinegar, scattering orange peels, and even putting up a small net, but nothing helps. Does anyone know of an effective way to scare cats away?

Oh, I know exactly what you mean. When I started planting grass and flowers, I thought the hardest part would be watering them regularly, but no, the hardest part was scaring away cats 😅. For several weeks, I tried various homemade remedies that I found on the Internet, but they either didn't work at all or the effect lasted only a day or two.
In the end, I decided to take a serious approach and look for the right repellents. I came across this article https://medium.com/@john-gardener/5-best-cats-repellers-i-tried-them-all-d62c1715c811 The author actually tried different options — sprays, ultrasonic devices, motion sensors — and ranked them according to what worked best. This was a turning point for me because I no longer had to waste time guessing.
In the end, I tried one of the recommended repellents with a motion sensor, and honestly, it turned out to be just great. The cats don't even dare to approach the garden.
