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.
motion detection water sprinkler?
That seems like the way to go for sure. On top of being affordable, itβs quick to set up, safe, should work quickly, and can quickly be taken down to return the lawn to normal. Or quickly put back in place if necessary.
This is the one. If you're tech-savvy you could probably find a way to activate a cheap wifi valve based on motion detection from your camera. Otherwise, there's this: https://www.orbitonline.com/products/yard-enforcer-motion-activated-sprinkler
