Any ideas for keeping cats out of garden beds? I have two and there’s a couple strays in the neighborhood and they all seem to think that my beds (raised and in-ground) are litter boxes😭🫠

    You can use plants to deter them. Several types of herbs with strong scents can convince them to stay back (lavender, mint, rue, pennyroyal, rosemary, and thyme can all work,) and you can use catnip to strategically attract them away from your other plants. For areas they've used before, you should try to change or eliminate the litter box scent. Try turning over the soil, adding a layer of fresh mulch (cedar has a strong scent), and maybe adding cut herbs over top
