When an animal eats plants in the house, it can be a real problem.
After all, many plants are toxic to pets.
Why does your pet eat houseplants
Eating plants by a pet is a natural instinct. There are no wild plants in the house or apartment, so flowers growing in flowerpots are used.
For example, plants help a cat get rid of constipation, remove toxins, and replenish the body's supply of vitamins and minerals.
What to do to stop your cat from eating plants
Cats have a very sensitive sense of smell and simply cannot stand the smell of citrus and lavender.
Therefore, if your pet is eating your houseplants, you can use scented oils to repel them.
This way, both the plant and the animal will be safe.
If this mixture does not help you, you can try other essential oils. For example, peppermint, eucalyptus, lime and lemongrass.
You can also place a few lemon or orange peels on the windowsill with flowers.
As they dry out, try to change the aromatic raw materials.
Over time, your pet’s habit of gracing the space near the window opening with its presence is guaranteed to disappear.
