Urine is also good to repel ants.

>> Urine is also good to repel ants.

I read somewhere that the urine of any large mammal — dog, horse, man, manbearpig, whatever — will repel coyotes.

We live in a semi-rural setting and have (or had, before urban encroachment) quite a few coyotes around.

So, just on the off chance that it works, I’d occasionally (uh, OK, frequently) take a leak out on the property somewhere.

I guess it kinda worked — I’m pretty sure the cat died of natural causes.

Well I myself ain’t exactly attracted to it. :)

I hear it works for squirrels, too. I read it somewhere on a FR thread of all places.

"Urine is also good to repel ants."

Ain't that the truth!
I haven't seen her or my uncle since I took a leak in their yard during the family reunion.
