Scent-based repellents

[Jennsbirds]

Has anyone has good luck with these? What were the active ingredients? Is it possible they can be too powerful (bothering neighbors' dogs or your own cat)?

What are trying to repel?

I use a scent based repellent in our front flower bed as the neighborhood cats seem to think I dig it over just for them to poo in. I don't have cats or dogs but, other than keeping them from using the flower bed as a toilet, It doesn't seem to bother them in any other way.

I've heard of a number of scents/repellents, both organic and otherwise. I have no experience with them myself, however. Cordite is my repellent of choice. It works on ALL predators, 2-legged, 4-legged, flying, crawling or walking....

LOL ! I had to look that up!

Well, if nature is any indication, it would have to be at least as noxious as skunk spray.

Awesome.

I want to repel coons and maybe a dog or deer, but I don't want my outdoor cat driven away (she can poo anywhere in my garden but my veggies).
