Yea i hear you. Cats can be a pets… Last year when I lived in the city it
was squirrels that were the problem. Those little bastards are smart!lol. I
tried every trick in the book and there is just no keeping them out unless
you use lethal force. The neighbors feed them and nothing seemed to bother
them!! Even my owl and snakes didnt work on them.. Out here (thank God)
there is not hardly any, just a few rabbits. A couple I already got rid of
(ate them). Good luck man!
Where I live,the cats that make it to my place have either been dumped off
by some kind former cat owner or are just plain wild cats. If I can’t trap
them and bring to humane society,I usually eliminate with a .22. It’s worse
to let them be deseased and suffering.

I hear you. I could not hang with suburbia… Thats one of the main reasons
we moved.. Plus its safer out here because there is less people..
Hey don’t hate oin rednecks..lmao They go about things a bit differently,
but they seem to make it work. Nice to meet your daughter. She is a pretty
girl. It’ll be interesting to see how well this works for you. I generally
throw those tie things out, but I’ll keep a bag of them and see if they
really do come in handy. Good tip.
Also use mothballs! Another really great trick is save your hair when you
cut it and sprinkle it onto your garden. That works wonders for deer. Get
some black or green tubing,old belts, old wire, anything that looks like a
snake and place them in there too. The goal is to use FREE stuff and
utilize what you already have. After you spend all that money on poles and
fences, etc.. Your not really saving any money. I try to spend as little as
possible with a very efficient garden. Urinate around it2
Your daughter is so pretty!! Poor little kitty.. the only good soft dirt in
the neighborhood and now he or she is blocked out..LOL Hope it works for
ya! TJ
Its easy, no fence needed. sprinkle some powdered chili powder or ceyenne
pepper powder lightly over the top of the soil or compost. They won’t come
near it again. Squirrels and other rodents stay away as well. To keep out
deer, always plant one plant of marigold flowers at each end of the raised
bed. Deer won’t come near the stinky flower it grows. Rabbits favorite food
is marigolds so they leave the rest of your garden alone and eat the
flowers instead. Works like a charm.
@rondygal No hatin’ on rednecks here. I am one. Just showing how it can get
done by good old American ingenuity. We’re going to need it when the SHTF
visits. Thanks for watching 🙂
Ya, gotta get away.

Ya, great idea. They mostly use it at night when it’s safe from my prying
eyes though.

@MyDaddysgirl44 Haven’t had a problem with cats since. Birds, on the other
hand, are a different story.
