Stopping cats Pooping

Hi, we`ve just put some grass seed on our front garden, next doors cats are pooping in the soil (well everywhere outside really!) can i buy anything to stop them? I`ve heard of using pepper, and lemon i think, but not sure if theyd really work tbh, so is there anything i can buy, that DOES work?
They are lovely cats, but this is getting me down, its like dodge the cat Cr*p, everytime you walk across any piece of grass!:mad:

    I bought some granules from Asda (can't remember name, think it was Asda's own, but was specifically to stop cats pooping in garden) and it worked a treat, with just one application!!

    deffo lemons and limes - just chop them up and spread them where you don't want the cats to go - it really does work and it's cheap !

    You can buy Lion krap in little boxes from garden centres which I know does deter foxes.
    Might work for cats - not sure.

    As it says on the box, it works on Lions. Should any dare stray into your garden:D

    Something you can buy...
    A dog
    A cork
    A laser guided sprinkler (I wish)

    I tried the first suggestion and it worked a charm. :D
