I heard that orange peel keeps cats away.....could be an old wives tale though
Some really cheap & nasty body spray/aftershave or air freshener sprayed all over the outside of the bag should do it.

Are you sure its cats? Seagulls go inland a lot of the time. Badgers and foxes are sly intergratos into your gardens If its cats then try spraying oil of lemons, cats hate it, as do mosquitoes, ther ae so many plants available now at you garden centres. Go visit and ask advice from them.


Just to follow on a bit from softspot, i've even seen Starlings ripping open dustbin bags.
Get a wheelie bin??!
-- answer removed --
i used to sprinkle pepper on them! once they sniff it they start sneezing. cruel but it worked. got myself a wheelie bin now though!

Have you been in to "jollys" i think thats what it's called (it's a pet shop) they sell a spray that cats stay away from dont know what its called though!!

thanks everyone for your answers. if it was legal i would consider leandrews advise but i will leave the little ginger pest to live.

I would just like to say that I was only joking when I made my banned comment.


I�m not a cat fan, but I would never harm one.


I hope noone took this the wrong way!
