Cat & Dog Problems
Cats can be your best friend but for some they're an unwanted visitor to gardens. Cats are territorial and mark their territory by depositing pheromones from scent glands by urination or otherwise. This scent marking indicates the attractive areas to which they will return. This scenting behaviour is the same for dogs and so treating the attraction will deter the visitor from returning.
Cats natural behaviours can be destructive to planted borders and gravelled areas leaving both unpleasant gifts, disturbed ground and a potential hazard to children at play.
There are many ways cats and dogs can be deterred from the areas we want to protect. The comprehensive range of products from Defenders offers a solution for your situation.

Repellent Sprays, Gels and Granules
Cats and dogs are repelled by pungent odours and surface treatments such as sprays and gels will act to mask the pheromone scent left by animal waste.
Citrus-based scents are particularly effective, encapsulating the natural essence of orange oils in a liquid or gel formulation will allow you to apply the treatment to the affected area training the cat to seek new areas for fouling.
A liquid spray formulation can be applied over a large reaching area using the trigger sprayer or pump action pressure sprayer. The Defenders Cat & Dog Crystal Gel will hold a gel form for a period of time slowly releasing the pungent scent; this is an ideal application for pebbled or gravelled areas.

Fence Toppers
Cats roam free; independent creatures that can travel over many gardens using fences and walls as their stepping stones.
Fence toppers are an effective way to prevent your walls and fences from being those stepping stones. Secured to the tops of walls and fences, the slightly blunt ended spikes will deter the cats. It's a little like humans treading on Lego, and we know how much we hate that!
See the range of Defenders Prickle Strips, purposely shaped polypropylene prickle strips that will fit to thin fence tops or wider brick walls. Use to create a weather-resistant perimeter defence around your garden.

Sonic Technology
Defenders Mega-Sonic Repellers are an outdoor welfare-friendly cat deterrent that does not harm cats, dogs or other wildlife.
Motion detecting ground level repellers are battery, mains or solar powered. The repeller units use PIR motion sensors to detect the movement of cats, activating mega-sonic sound pulses at a frequency that only cats can hear. The sonic technology works day and night at deterring unwanted visitors from your garden without harm.
