    Idea for a kickstarter

    So I was thinking the other day, you know how some people get mad when dogs crap on their lawns?

    How about this? A CCTV camera on one of those remote turrets with one of those air horns they have at sporting events.





    So a motion detector sounds a chime that a dog is on your lawn, you observe the dog though the camera and then as he's about to dump a load, you push the horn button?

    What do you think?

    I use a motion activated sprinkler. https://www.amazon.com/ScareCrow-Mot.../dp/B000071NUS
    It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion. It is by the beans of Java that thoughts acquire speed, the hands acquire shakes, the shakes become a warning.

    This is even better, you can chase the offending fur ball back to his house.

    Not if it sits in one place. Dog shit and piss kills the grass.

    All shit has fertilizing properties. The issue comes from the concentration of chemicals. A poop left in one spot will "burn" the plants around it, killing them. If you took the poop, diluted it in water and sprayed it on your lawn, it would be disgusting but it would do a fine job making your lawn green.

    Front lawn fences are not common in some areas or even permitted depending on neighborhood.

    Dog shit doesn't really decompose unless you give them a special diet, or live in a hot ass area.

    I wouldn't be friends much longer with any of my neighbors that had one of these on their house. Reason? Cause i would take a baseball bat to that fucking horn the first time they used it.

    Idunno, I see mushrooms growing out of the grass fields where cows do their dump, never seen that with dog shit. and it isn't spread out and sprayed like you say you would need to with dog shit.

    Well, I pick up after my dog, and if you scared my dog, my arm would likely be broken, he would take off into traffic. Then I'd sue you, and inform any vehicle who hit my dog to also sue you for damages.

    Afaik the excrements of carnivores has too much sodium or something like that and aren't used because of that.

    No, dog poop just straight up kills grass.

    It's about the diet/digestive process, that's why cow poop is good. For example, cows have a stomach that's broken up into 4 sections for the digestive process, rather than just one.

    I knew that botany class would come in handy at some point.

    Most cow manure is mixed with hay then spread then over the field. Its not just dumping shit on the ground. You don't necessarily need to mix it with water(well you would to apply it to grass), you could mix it with hay and put it out on a field just like cow shit. Now, manure may be better than dog shit, Im just saying dog shit can and will make grass greener.

    Thats correct, but it doesn't mean they have no fertilizer value, its just that other poops (cow) are better and we have LOTS of cow poop.
    Also, most people feed their dogs bad dog food, food that is 80% wheat.
