Any ideas on keeping cats out of my garage? Neighbors cats keep coming in if I leave the door open for 5 minutes...

Tried the cat repellent sprinkles...cats mad a bed in them.

Keep the door closed, but that may not totally protect you. I had a Siamese cat that used to climb down a neighbor’s chimney and leave his little sooty footprints on her white carpet.

Try chili powder. Sprinkle it in the garage doorway.

Get a motion detector that makes a noise or sprays water...

Sorry, but that’s one of the first laws of Cat Physics: an open door creates a vacuum that draws in all cats in the area. Try opening a closet door in your house, if you have cats. They will come from wherever they are to go and explore that closet!
