Apologies to anyone who goes a bit green round the gills at this, but as a fan of the al fresco wee I wondered if human wee at the entrance to the PT (which has no doors) might deter things four-footed that want to eat my veg? Yes, we are very secluded here!

No idea - but it might be worth a try!

I've been using the "empty" cat litter (the recycled paper type) as mulch around a few bushes that kept getting nobbled by rabbits, and I think it's had an effect...

It is supposed to work to keep away foxes (I think I read somewhere that womans pee smells more, perhaps its the hormones?) and you can buy lion poo to keep pests out of your garden.

I guess it'll work, you have nothing to loose... let us know how you get on.
