Does this work for snakes........

I'm wondering if Ghost Peppers would be more effective than Jalapenos.

Is there a gopher repellent that anyone knows of? Thanks
-
Does this get rid of dogs?
-
I'm assuming you strain this so you can put in spray bottle & spray on your flowers? But I want to keep my dog away from a certain area in my backyard- can I just make this - not strain the water and pour it in different spots on ground in this area?

Put a baggie around the hand that you use to hold the hot peepers while cutting, and throw the baggie out when done. That way you won't hurt yourself when you rub your eyes.

Thanks for the recipe... works great! I use a second tablespoon of Cayenne Pepper. I also use the strained veggies by tossing those in the area that I wanted to repel the neighborhood critters. Lastly, I would recommend preparing this outdoors!! I use the burner on my BBQ grill. Much appreciated Allen.

I want to try this for my squirrel problem on my nectarine trees, but I am concerned as to how it will affect the fruit!!
Any thoughts?
Thanks -
@2hotinaz use skin so soft from Avon for the mosquito problem.

How often should you spray it on the plants?

I moved into a house that was infested w cats. previous tenant was a "cat person". I had to rip out all the carpeting, bleach the walls and still there were 10-15 cats in the yard crapping all over the yard. I used the old Native American remedy. Just go in the yard to take a leak at the problem areas. had my 5 year old son do it too. Cats hate human scent. within a week all the cats vacated the yard. Haven't found a single cat feces since then. It sounds nasty but it really works.

Is this good to keep dogs away too. I got a neighbors dog that likes to pee and poo right in front of my front door.

At first I thought you were cooking the Mice lol

HISSSSSSSSSSS

I need a repellent that I can spray on counters, tabletops, and wires to train my cats to leave them alone or stay off. I am worried about finding one that neither can harm my cat, create a very strong odor in my home that will bother humans that live here, or one that will attract roaches or other bugs, as I live in a city, where such problems are common. Would this work for all of these purposes? Or can you suggest something else?

Will this work on my mrs?

Is this good for mice?
