Bobcats are most active from sunset to midnight, and from sunrise to a few hours into the morning.

You can also build a fence (or opt for a privet hedge) or keep the most enticing plants in a sectioned-off area. The most efficient method of keeping your four-legged guests at bay is to determine what animal it is and create a customized plan for them.
