ULPT if you don't want people who walk their dog to come into your yard.

Start leaving food around the perimeter. The dog owner doesn't want their dog to eat random things. Once they notice that every time they come to your house its meal time, then they will make sure to avoid it. Can confirm it works. Took 5 days for 3 suspects.

Plant some Piss-Off plants around the perimeter

I legit did this! I used wild roses. They have lots of thorns and they'll naturalize. Plus they smell great

We don't know what these are

They're plants that shout "piss off!" whenever they get pissed on. Native to south Kent, I believe.

You can also sit out in a lawn chair and yell at all passers-by to "Get off mah lawn!!!" You should also get sprinklers you can activate on any intruders, and a hose too, to target all life.

Take a stick and fling the dog poop to where the dog owners walk. For me it’s the road since we don’t have sidewalks. Turns out people who let their dog shit in your yard don’t want to step into yesterday’s dog shit that they left the previous day.

Enjoy the birds.

Winter bro, no birds here

Horseshit works as well. They just love eating it.

Nah, find something the dog will roll in. Coyote urine perhaps?
IWontHealYou@reddit
That's diabolical. Put some dog poop on top of it first so it'll roll right in it.

Coyote Piss (disks or just spread out on your lawn)
Lots of fertilizer (raw poop). Good for your grass!
Spread cayenne pepper. Dogs will avoid.
Motion activated sprinklers. Not hard to buy or install.
Love the hot dog idea below. Dog loves it, no harm done but suspicious owners will avoid your lawn.

Except the raccoons or other wildlife will find it first.

No raccoons here and the squirrels like nuts. Tried to feed them costco pizza but no luck.
naruzopsycho@reddit
Are you trying to feed them so, when necessary, you have a horde of loyal squirrels to be used for ULPT purposes?
some_kind_of_friend@reddit
Imagine using Costco pizza to train squirrels to slid pussy discs under people's doors 🤣

You could also collect your own dog’s poop for like two months straight from daily walks. Then cut open each bag and place all over your lawn. Problem solved. You’ll never have to worry about anyone trespassing again, plus: free fertilizer.

Nice safe tip

Ooh like roadkill stuffed with begging strips!
Liveitup1999@reddit
Put some ExLax in the food for added benefit.
stevarino1979@reddit (OP)
Nah, I'm a dog lover.
Liveitup1999@reddit
The dog will be fine but when he gets back inside their house won't be.
Tranquil_Dohrnii@reddit
Yeah but do you really think the type of people to just let their dog shit in others yards and not pick it up, are the same ones who treat their animals really nicely? Im sure there's exceptions but for the majority im assuming they dont care about anyone but themselves.

You could also get cameras and scatter bouillon cubes in your yard when it rains. When the dogs try to eat the sod, post the video on your local Facebook group asking for help identifying the owner.

Always wondered why hotdogs were in my neighbors lawn. Figured that’s how plant based hotdogs are grown. This makes more sense.
