Partially jokey answer: An automatic sprinkler and a motion detector

Serious answer: I don't think there's much... I used to have a problem with cats pissing on my bicycle (which used to be parked outside) and the only thing that would keep them away was a bike alarm - at the expense of mine and my neighbors' sleep. Covering the bike made no difference, they just pissed on the cover instead. The fix ended up being just parking my bike inside.
If you let the garden get a little bit overgrown, do they still come and drop their shit there?
I don't think this is a joke answer. This was the only way a buddy could keep the cats from going in his kids sandbox.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.
Doesn't help. No mowing while I was away and it was bad when we came back. Oh, the stink :-(
On the regular, I want my lawn to be nice, not overgrown.
