Marltons Get Off My Garden Scatter Crystals 450g

Marltons Get Off My Garden Scatter Crystals are a cat and dog repellent for South African gardens, designed to deter animals from the areas you treat. The jelly-like crystals release a strong odour that confuses a cat's or dog's sense of smell, so this 450 g container suits homeowners who want to discourage pets and strays from patios, paving, lawn edges and plant beds.

Key Benefits

• Deters both cats and dogs from treated areas using scent alone
• Jelly-like scatter crystals slowly release a strong, highly perfumed odour
• Effective in all weather conditions
• Over a period of weeks, animals are trained to move away from treated areas and towards places where they can detect evidence of previous fouling odours
• Approved for use on concrete, paving, and around lawns and plant beds when used as directed
• The active ingredient, Methyl Nonyl Ketone, is non-toxic if ingested by animals

How It Works

The crystals give off a strong, highly perfumed odour that confuses the sense of smell of both cats and dogs. Animals that can no longer pick up their usual scent cues are less inclined to linger. Over a period of weeks, they learn to move away from the treated spots and head to areas where they can still detect the smell of previous fouling.

How to Use

• Scatter the crystals over the areas you want to protect, following the directions for use
• Use them on concrete, paving, and around lawns and plant beds
• Treat the spots where animals are visiting, as the deterrent effect builds over a period of weeks

Dosage

• One 450 g container should treat an area of 50m²

Yes. The strong, highly perfumed odour is formulated to confuse the sense of smell of both cats and dogs.
