The Zesty Secret Cats Can’t Stand

If you’re looking for the ultimate cat deterrent, look no further than your fruit bowl. Cats have an olfactory system that is significantly more powerful than ours, and there is one scent in particular that sends them running in the opposite direction: citrus. While we might find the smell of fresh lemons or oranges refreshing and clean, to a cat, it is overwhelming and highly unappealing. This makes citrus one of the best “friendly” weapons in your gardening arsenal.

To put this trick into action, simply save your peels from breakfast! Scattering lemon, lime, or orange peels around the perimeter of your garden beds creates a natural aromatic barrier. For an even more potent solution, you can boil the peels in water to create a concentrated citrus spray. Once cooled, spritz it onto your garden furniture, fence posts, and the edges of your planters. It won’t harm your plants, and it certainly won’t hurt the cats—it simply makes your garden smell like a place they’d rather not hang out.

If you are a person to whom this trick doesn’t appeal, never fear, click on the next page to find another easy solution to your feline problem.
