How Do You Make Homemade Dog & Cat Repellent?
Stray or loose dogs and cats can create mess on your lawn and cause damage in your garden. If you have your own pets, they can cause stress to your animals if they wander around outside your house. You can protect your property and pets by making homemade dog and cat repellent. Identify your main problem. Are you dealing mainly with dogs or cats, or are you having an issue with both. Homemade repellent is based on a substance that the problem animal dislikes. If your problem is limited primarily to one species, you can gear your efforts in that direction. Identify an appropriate substance to use. Dogs generally dislike smells like vinegar, ammonia, rubbing alcohol, and citrus scents like lemons and oranges. Cats don’t like citrus, rosemary, or vinegar. If you are having problems with both types of animals choose something that repels both. Apply the substance to your lawn, garden, or other affected area. If you are using a liquid scent, soak cotton balls and toss them around the area.
