Is there anything I can spray/put in my flower beds to deter my dogs from digging?

No matter what I do they keep it up. I don't want to rope it all off, that would defeat the purpose of thier beauty, but I'm thinking thats my next option.

I have sucessfully kept my dogs from digging by sprinkling cayenne powder in the areas I don't want them to dig. Don't get it all over your plants, and you have to reapply after every watering.


Dogs (and cats) tend to sniff before they dig, a snootful of cayenne will generally cause them to exit the area in haste.


I buy my cayenne at the health food store in bulk, and I look for the hottest pepper powder I can find.- there's something like a scoville units of hotness (something like that) which is often listed on the packaging - that's what I look for.

Reply:Spray bitter apple. It comes in a hairspray type bottle. It wont hurt them it's just very strong and if it gets in their face, they wont want to go in there.
