Dog's Defecating On Front Lawns
Hi
Help needed with ways to prevent unwanted dog's from deficating on front lawn
I have tried the water bottlse products like "dog gone" etc and spraying lawn with diluted citronella oil.
Has anyone had succes with any products or deterents.
I know the answer is a fence but that would be the my last choice.
The event happens very early in the mornings or very late at night
Cheers sam

Have you tried putting out the clear plastic bottles filled with water?

Proberly dogs being walked if its late at night or early mornings , just gonna have to sit up and wait then ask the owners not to let their dogs use your front yard, or scoop it up fpllow them home and post it to them ...ie push into their letterbox,
Or use the same instrument you used to clear the pub, but that might be a bit noisy

There was a half arsed experiment on the box about this recently. Water bottles did nothing, I think lemon? may have worked. Can't really remember that well.

Maybe, since its happening in the dark, setup one of those movement activated floodlights.
It may not scare the dog off. But it'll probably scare the owner if its being walked.
Can give you quite a shock, those things. uno, to suddenly be hit with a light while doing something shifty in the dark. (Happened to me once, taking a leak:eek: ...nearly pee'd all over me jeans)
At the very least, it may bring some added security.

You need a sensor movement activated sprinkler.

Here I go again - Lee Valley gardening section has the sprinklers - just one column over from woodworking.
Another idea - place dog c### in large paper bag. When 'enough' is collected, take bag to dog owner's house, place bag on door step, set fire to loose end of bag, ring bell & run like hell

my answer
Simple, wait and collect the dogs as they pass on your grass. Then call the council dog folks. My dog was picked up once and it cost me $200. Or if the owner of the dog has just lets it make a deposit, take a photo (or pretend to have) and yell out "SMILE!!! Now clean it up!".
Or you can just play with a sling shot, BB gun or something like that.
