How to humanely keep cats out of your garden?

A lot of my friends have cat problems in their garden, cats taring up their flowers, or pooping everywhere.

What tips would you give to help keep cats out?

I have heard people say oranges, and from my experience with my two, I would say vinegar works pretty well at deterring them from going certain places.

Suggestions??

 

I put coffee grounds in my garden. I read that it balances the PH of the soil and most bugs don't like it either. Once I started doing that, my dog and my cats were staying away. Hope that helps. I know you can get free grounds from your local Starbucks.

 

I like to use a special brand of tobacco all over my garden, I do it to keep snails and other pests away. It has also worked with my cats as well They don't seem to like the smell of that thing, plus they don't like that thing getting stuck in between their fingers. It does charms It's very cheap as well, and your plants will really thank you for it!
