Messinas Dog & Cat Stopper can be used to discourage most dog and cat breeds from bedding down, spraying and entering plant beds, mulch, lawns and other areas while also keeping them off of sils, furniture and other unwanted areas. To prevent further home and garden harm, apply Messinas Dog & Cat Stopper to key areas. Our humane and safe Messinas Dog & Cat Stopper creates a sensory barrier that works by smell, taste and feel and can be applied every 30 days regardless of weather or watering. It is pleasant to use, dries clear and odor free and is safe to use around fruits and vegetables. When using on fabrics or other areas in danger of staining, always test a small piece before using on large areas to ensure it is suitable.
