How do I stop neighbours' cats using my garden as a toilet?

[callielou]

I am absolutely fed up of removing cat poo from my garden - I've just cleared up 3 lots today and it's a disgusting job!!! I've tried using cat repellent granules but they haven't solved the problem.

Any advice gratefully received.

I'm going to buy some oranges when I go shopping tomorrow. I'll let you know if it works!

calling callielou!!!

Did it work? We put turf down at the beginnig of the summer and cats are using our whole NEW garden as a toilet. grrrr!!!!!

Will cayenne pepper kill the grass ? if not im willing to give it a go x

Oh dont bother with the orange peel thing it doesnt work in fact our cat liked it even more and even pooped right next to them , grrr !

Did anyone watch Mock the Week last night? somebody said the best cure would be going round to the owners house and doing a poop in the cat litter in the kitchen

Apparently leaving small bowls of water around will deter them or so my dh says when next door is complaining about our cats (I hasten to add that my cats only use their garden path as a thoroughfare and not a toilet) Not sure if it works though.
