Cat repellent

6/16 Edited to

... Read moreうちも花壇が猫さんのトイレ化しそうで焦って、セリアの猫よけをいくつか組み合わせました。結論から言うと「匂いタイプ」と「チクチクマット」は、単体より“セット使い”の方が安心感がありました。 まず匂いタイプ(吊るす/置く系)は、開けた瞬間に「くさーい!」となりがちなので、設置場所は“人がよく通る導線”を避けるのがおすすめです。私はフェンスや花壇の外周など、風が抜ける位置に吊るしました。花の近くに置くと、花壇作業のたびに匂いが気になってテンションが下がるので、できるだけ外側に寄せるとラクです。 次にチクチクマット。これは花壇の土の上に広く敷くより、猫が入りやすい「侵入口」っぽい場所(塀の下、通り道になっている角、踏みやすい平らなところ)を狙って部分的に置く方が使いやすかったです。全部を覆うと水やりや植え替えが大変なので、私は猫の足跡が付きやすいところから優先して敷きました。 効果を上げるために意識したのは3つです。 1) 匂いは“定期的にチェック” 雨や風で弱くなることがあるので、匂いが落ちたら交換・追加。置きっぱなしより、たまに場所をずらすのも手でした。 2) マットは“浮かないよう固定” 端がめくれていると猫が避けずに突破することも。石やピンで軽く押さえると安定します。 3) 花壇を縮小するなら“管理しやすい範囲で” 花壇を半分にした分、対策範囲も半分で済むので、100均アイテムの費用も抑えられました。 あと、これからの季節に植えるものは、香りが強めのハーブ(ローズマリー、ラベンダー等)を少量混ぜると気分的にも◎でした。猫よけの匂いが気になるときでも、植物の香りで作業中のストレスが少し和らぎます。 100均の猫よけは「これだけで完璧!」というより、“匂い&チクチクマットの合わせ技”で守りを固めるイメージ。花壇の状況に合わせて、まずは侵入口から試すと無駄が少ないと思います。
