Neighborhood cats shit right in the middle of my lawn. It stinks and the robot lawn mover makes it even worse.
I do NOT like cats, and this is not helping.
What works to keep them from shitting on my lawn?
The votes have spoken. Some people are cat lovers; thanks for the great advice from the rest of you! I will not go out of my way to accommodate other people's pets that aren't welcome on my property. My first weapon of choice will be chili because it's simple and cheap. Other ideas have been noted.
I feel like this can't possibly be true... The cheapest one I can find is $650. Like, these are not affordable for most folks.
400 โฌ is not much more than a good petrol mower. And yes, that counts as affordable in middle European countries. This is neither Ethiopia nor Afghanistan.
It's getting better all the time, and I'm happy to see people buying them. ๐ Much like ebikes mid-pandemic. Initial adoption provides capital, gets real-world feedback & conditions, and hopefully that gets communicated back to the company for future R&D, implementation.
I have dreamed about (good) robot lawnmowers. A couple months ago, I saw a business with a couple Husqvarna robomowers; they charged at their little solar-panel hut in the middle of the greens. It was beautiful.
You either afford it, or you pay for not affording it. Hours of your life every week (or hiring a guy), oil changes, feeding it gas?...it adds up. That all goes away if you have an electric robomower.
It hasn't been around super long, it's getting cheaper & better with time...I encourage you to be patient. ๐
Most homeowners are capable of buying a $650 item for household maintenance. If not, they probably should have bought an apartment.
