Thanks all, its exactly as I feared! I am now trying dosing the area with saved urine, at the least the extra nitrogen will encourage plant regrowth!!

Don't over do it. Too much urine will burn the plants. You should only use a very diluted solution a couple times per season.

Is it working?

Yes, human urine is a high quality fertilizer, rich in Nitrogen, Phosphorous & Potassium. It also kills weeds and accelerate decomposition. Only get the ground, not the leaves & must be very diluted 20/1. It also destroys pathogens in the soil & deters moles, voles & deer.

Fantastic.I've added it to the compost bin a couple of times but collecting it is easier for those of the masculine persuasion...But what I meant was is it deterring Cookist's badger?

Funny how everything ends up where it starts off.

Does it deter rats / mice? Got a problem on our lottie with the chicken man behind us, all efforts by the council's rat-man have only really held them at low levels.

I haven't used it for that purpose, but yes, I heard it deters everything, rats, wolves, foxes, badgers, etc.

I doubt if human waste, liquid or otherwise will deter rats, after all it doesn't keep them out of the sewers.

The human waste here is contained in a closed system and does not linger in the sewer system. Who needs a listeria outbreak? It's quickly flushed through.
