You will be relieved to hear - I have on good authority - that your problem animal has been banned from your garden - and ours!

Is that perceptiveness or imaginative thinking? The dogs will rest peacefully this evening, then, although that might be the result of the long walk they had. I am still likely to pursue the infrared water deterrent, as you never know when unwanted pests might return. |

Good thinking EO - the buggers are always lurking.

I’m sure they’re ready to leap into action should the need arise.

I was particularly touched by Haydn’s offer to send over a seagull to act as a deterrent.
Was there one from his conservatory thread? Must be quite a pensioner by now, if it’s the same one.

There's a product called Silent Roar which is a sterilised version. I've found that it works fairly well as long as you follow the instructions (clear away all poo, wear plastic gloves that are supplied with the product). It's not particularly cheap, though, and doesn't last forever. The animal scarers can work well, but that depends on the layout of the garden. Mine's 100ft long but only about 15 wide, so it would be spraying the neighbours' gardens on both sides and only covering a small part of mine. 'Drives the dogs nuts' sounds more like a fox or a badger to me, though. This site might help: https://www.discoverwildlife.com/how-to/identify-wildlife/how-to-identify-animal-droppings/
