Cats can cause great inconvenience to their owners with their curiosity. In order not to tire themselves with training, the owners often prefer to scare the animal away from those places where it should not go, with the help of odors that are unpleasant for the cat.
It is necessary
- -1 liter of water;
- -10 drops of lemon oil;
- -20 drops of rosemary oil.
Instructions
Step 1
Cats don't like citrus scents. If you live in a country house with a plot, this is a real expanse for a cat, but some may get in the habit of wandering around the garden and ruining the planting. Chop the skins of lemons or oranges where they shouldn't go. On shrubs, lower branches of trees, you can hang bags of citrus oils. Spray the soil with white vinegar - this smell is also hated by cats. Mint, lavender, rue, which can be planted on the site, can also act as natural repellents. The cat will smell their scent in the distance.
Step 2
Pet stores sell special sprays that repel cats, made on the basis of odors that the animal hates. The principle of operation is simple: the places where the cat tries to mischief are sprayed with a spray, the animal understands that it is better not to meddle in this place - judging by the smell, there is nothing good there. You can also make them yourself by mixing the necessary ingredients.
Step 3
Cats can be scared away by the smells of essential oils derived from mint, lemongrass, lavender, citronella, and orange. You can prepare repellents based on lemon grass, cinnamon, and rosemary oils. To prepare a repellent, you will need to mix one part of any oil with three parts of water.
Step 4
Stir the ingredients and use a spray bottle to spray where the cat should not poke its nose. At first, the treatment will need to be carried out every day, until the cat realizes that it is better not to approach these areas of housing. But many pets subsequently try to check if the situation with the unpleasant smell has changed, so the owners should be on the lookout. Before use, the solution must be shaken and sprayed in those places where the presence of an animal is undesirable. You can use a pipette to put drops of solution on cotton balls and scatter them where necessary.
