Funny, I don't feel quite the same about cockroaches, but as far as I know, nobody keeps those as pets. Well, maybe one or two from this forum could be suspect in that area!!

Have heard that citronella is effective, it does have to be replaced from time to time and also kept moving around the garden to wherever greenfingered moggies shift themselves to.

716117 2008-10-31 01:48:00 I've decided to go for the net option, rain won't wash it away and it should work quite well...

I've seen as many as 5 to 6 different cats on my garden ...

716118 2008-10-31 02:43:00 There was a video on Gizmodo a little while ago where a guy had set a motion detector up to a strobe light and his blender.

Everytime the cat jumped on the bench it got the fright of it's life. The video was hilarious.

You'd have +1mil geek points if you did that. -50k for using someone elses idea, but that's insignificant.

716119 2008-10-31 02:59:00 The problem is the diseases they bury along with their 'messages': toxoplasmosis is pretty nasty

Rubbish.
Toxoplasmosis is a parasitic disease caused by the protozoan Toxoplasma gondii. The parasite infects most genera of warm-blooded animals, including humans, but the primary host is the felid (cat) family.

Up to one third of the world's population is estimated to carry a Toxoplasma infection. During the first few weeks, the infection typically causes a mild flu-like illness or no illness. After the first few weeks of infection have passed, the parasite rarely causes any symptoms in otherwise healthy adults.

Its only a problem if you get it while pregnant.


And the most disease ridden species on the planet is humans. Do you worry what you might catch from your fellow humans touching door handles and so on?
Thats a good way to get Hepatitis A you know.
