    It's quite rare I see it on pavement these days. In days of yore it used to be smeared up and down the pavement in human step length instalments.

    Brilliant. Our town is dog-poo central, but the wardens aren't interested. You can, if you wish, phone a hot-line and some guys in a van come out and jet-wash it away.

    Dog or cat fouling, I suggest invoking the mr bean method. If I ever see a dog owner on their own where I might be able to get away with it, I have to fight the urge to go mr bean on them.

    Unfortunately a dog doesn't work unless it can get outside while they are in the act.

    Hessian sack, a few bricks and a fast flowing stream work though.

    Anybody tried lion's 'turfs' - I understand you can get them from a local garden centre?

    I don't want to use an airgun, water pistol or a sonic solution.

    Apparently it does work, another solution is peeing in your own garden or getting a cat or a dog

    Nope, nor does chilli powder or pepper grounds. Lemon or citronella is a deterrent they hate it, but the best bet is lions tulip.
