How do I keep cats out of my vegetable gardens?
I have several small vegetable gardens around the yard. There are a number of cats in the neighborhood who dig holes and do their business. I am looking for an easy and cheap way to keep the cats out of the garden, without using chemicals or injuring the cats. What works for this?

Pellet and BB guns work nicely.
I have tired quite a few things to prevent kitties from doing their business in my garden beds.. the cheapest and best method I have found was laying some chicken wire just underneath the mulch of just an inch or two below the soild.. It’s cheap and it works.. Also I have heard that those motion detector spinklers works quite well, however they are a bit pricy.. good luck
Hunting and fishing stores sell coyote urine, which is supposed to keep away all sorts of trouble-makers.
Pour liquid ammonia around the perimeter of the garden. It will deter the kitties and will not harm them.
