My neighbours cats are coming into my garden, garage and urinating and they stink because they are not neutered.

Put down lemon and orange peel. Cats hate citrus. Ithink you can even buy a citrus spray.

I know how you feel because I have gone through it for years! The best bet for your garden is to plant marigolds a foot apart around your whole garden...I know , I know you might not like the looks or not want flowers,, but trust me they work all growing season and just make sure you get the old fashion kind because cats hate the way they smell!! I am not sure what you can do for your garage..oh I know...lol...I forgot, at one time I use to use moth balls for my garden because cats hate the smell of them, but the rain would ruin that...but in your garage no rain will get on them. If you put a lot of them on the floor around in the areas the cats like to be it will repel them! Trust me, that works too.

well if you have a female cat make sure not to dispose of her fecal matter in the garden. you could also use the hot peppers but they are only good until the next few rains. so if you use them reapply them after it rains. you could also try an electric fence these are easy to install non lethal and available at most farm stores. Just install the wires close to the ground but not touching or it will ground and become useless , close enough so the cat can not crawl under it. and run at least three more wires about 3 to five inches above one another. This should solve your problem. I used the same method when i had trouble with rabbits. Haven't had anymore trouble.

Put down some lemon juice around your garden and garage and this will get rid of the smell of the old urine and stop them using it to pee as they hate the smell of citrus.

Cats hate the smell of mothballs, I have used them quite successfully around my garden.

Pixietrix is right. My cat cant stand the smell of orange. Alternatively they say that if you put lion dung down it scares the **** out of your common or garden tabby.

they have these great gadgets at most hardware stores. it fits on a sprinkler andis motion semsitive. When it detects movement, the sprinkler comes on and scares dogs, cats etc away from the area you have it protecting.

my grandma used to sprinkle cloves around the edge of her garden to keep cats away
