Train or repel – keeping pets in check
 

Cats and dogs can cause catastrophic damage to crops and flower borders, but gardeners have a choice as to whether to train or repel pets with Vitax’s Scent Off and Stay Off range.

Comprising of three training aids and three repellents, Stay Off includes: Pepper Dust, Stay Off ready-to-use (RTU) spray and Stay Off Ultrasonic Animal Deterrent for gardeners looking to repel pets away from specific areas.

Alternatively, those looking for a training solution can turn to Vitax’s Scent Off range including: Scent Off Training Aid Granules, Gel and Pellets, providing a long-term solution.

Quick and easy to use, Vitax’s Stay Off Ultrasonic Animal Deterrent banishes cats, dogs and foxes from the garden by emitting an ultrasonic blast only audible to animals.

Solar-powered, the dual action deterrent also has a strong flashing light to further deter the animal. 

Alternatively, Stay Off RTU can be sprayed on garden areas and plants which need protection.  Effective against a wide-range of animals including rabbits and birds, it can be used on edible and non-edible crops.

Gardeners looking for a long-term solution who prefer to train their pets to stay away from crops, can use Vitax’s training aids.  Scent Off Gel is perfect for training pets to go to the toilet in a designated area rather than in freshly cultivated soil.

Releasing a strong odour, it deters pets away from the garden by simply scattering the gel over paths, patios, lawns and crops.

Alternatively, gardeners can use Scent Off Granules or Scent Off Pellets.
