What Customers Are Saying
Customers report mixed results, with most praising effectiveness against cats in flower beds and patios, noting immediate deterrence and consistent success when reapplied after rain. However, many find it ineffective on dogs, which often ignore or are attracted to the product. The strong, persistent odor is polarizing—some view it as proof of potency while others find it overwhelming. Reapplication every one to two weeks is widely accepted as necessary maintenance. Despite some reporting no effect, most customers consider it worthwhile for cat deterrence.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product works great we sprayed around our lemon and lime trees and there hasn't been any animals apund that area. Its been 3 days and still no sign of any type of animals around the area. The smell is pretty strong so be careful of it getting on your clothing. The packing was secured and well sealed.

Fingers crossed
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First let me say that it smells like food and I realized it’s the garlic and spices it oils in it lol. It is pretty smelly. I sprayed it in the front yard where we get a lot of stray cats coming to poop and dig in our landscaping, as well as around the perimeter of our backyard where my dog digs. It is pretty strong so you don’t need a lot at once, so it should last a long time. Received in exchange for my honest review.

Great product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We’ve noticed animal tracks in our back yard and have used this product along the side of our house. It works great. The only downside is that it smells heavily like garlic but it’s being used outside your house not inside.

Effective but strong smell
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Received this product free from Infuenster and Liquid Fence for a review. This animal repellent works fairly well for keeping stray cats away from the yard. The spray bottle is good but the head is a little hard to twist (maybe mine came in a little damaged). After applying it to areas where they usually pass through, I noticed fewer visits, which was exactly what I hope for. I also appreciate that it doesn’t harm animals or plants. The only ...

Smells bad, works GREAT!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Let me start off by saying that the smell of this stuff is absolutely horrid, but it works! I have. A stray cat that has been ripping up my weed barrier tarp and using the mulch as their personal bathroom. I did some test sprays around the base of the tree and near the retaining wall just to see, and I have NOT seen that cat (or its droppings) at ALL. I am thrilled and will use this around the perimeter of my yard and around my trees. One t...

Quite the strong smell to keep dogs and cats away
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Liquid Fence Dog and Cat repellent is quite remarkable. Please wear gloves when using to avoid the oils and smells to hopefully not transfer to you because they are very potent. I sprayed this around a few bushes and I can tell already by the aroma that no animal will bother our bushes ever again. This product is quite strong and effective.

Dogs-no, CATS-yes
Would RecommendI spray outside, dont’ stop dogs or deers from doing thier stuff. HOWEVER, if you have a cat that loves to spray inside. This is great. I have a female cat that loves to pee. I used this and she stop peeing on the couch, bed, clothes. Just remember it does smell, to me pepper spray.

My dog loves the smell!
Would Not RecommendMy dog loves the smell of citronella! She not only continued to dig but now rolls arounf in the horrid smell as well. I guess if you have mosquitos as big as dogs, it should work well.
