How to drive away cats

Don't feed the cat. Needless to say, once you feed the cats, even once or twice, they will always bother you and keep asking for food and drink. So make sure that no one at home secretly feeds cats, and be careful not to let wild cats eat your pet's rations.

Cover the trash can tightly, so that wild cats have no chance to rummage for food inside; Always take out the garbage to prevent the smell from attracting wild cats.

Beware of rats and turn your backyard into a natural feeding ground for wild cats. So pay attention to killing rats, or wild cats will come to you.

Convince the neighbors. Your kind neighbor may feed the cat in private or lead the cat to your house. So if you are worried that this situation will continue, talk to your neighbor and persuade him/her to stop feeding the cat, or feed it far away from your home.

Advise neighbors to throw rubbish into the dustbin, littering will definitely attract wild cats to visit.

Restaurant trash cans can also be a food source for wild cats. Talk to the owners of nearby restaurants and remind them to cover the garbage bins and empty them on time.

Let the cat have nowhere to live.

Watch the corner. Cats don't like cold and humid weather. They will look for warm and dry places to shelter from the rain. If you happen to have a garden shed or other corner at home, make sure that these places are closed, otherwise wild cats may sneak in.

Looking for corners in the community. See if there are any cats living in abandoned shacks or your neighbor's old garage. Find out these corners, and you may be inspired to know how to clean your house to prevent wild cats from approaching.

If a cat seems to have nowhere to go and wander around your house, ask the neighbors if it is their cat. If not, you can consider sending it to a shelter.

Fence off the porch. Cats like to hide in the porch. The porch is a pleasant habitat for cats. So put a thatched fence around your porch so that cats can't get in. Make sure there are no holes and gaps in the fence where cats can get in and out.

Zoom in on the stone where the cat may dig a hole. Cats like to dig holes in soft soil to relieve themselves. They usually look for corners of the yard or hidden bushes. Pay attention to these places. If you see cats urinating, remember to put stones in that place when they finish urinating. In this way, the cat can only go to other places in the future, because it doesn't like to pee where there are stones.

Take advantage of the cat's nature

Cats who use waterboarding are naturally afraid of water, so installing irrigation devices at home is a good way to scare off wild cats. Water won't hurt the cat, but if you scare it with water many times, it may not come back.
