A friend of mine uses cayenne pepper. He bought a very large jar of the stuff at a restaurant supply house. He spreads it around the areas that he wants to keep the cats out of. I've got to tell you that it's pretty funny to see them jerk around with a snoot full of the stuff.
After that the smell alone is enough to keep them away. The sticky sheets can also make life miserable for unfortunate birds that happen onto one and that's not fun to watch. Denny ...

She said that she found this real sticky substance, similar to the sticky rodent traps now available, and put it in her garden. When the cats came to do their number in her flowers, their fur got entangled in the sticky glue and they never came back. I imagine that this will kill two birds with one sticky trap, first, it will make the cats very uncomfortable and probably very chilly, after having to be shaved to free them from the glue, and second, the owner will maybe keep the cats where they belong after having to shave a very unhappy and sticky fur ball. Hope it helps, no I am not sure where you can buy the traps, maybe just use the rodent traps from Lowes'.
