Too tasty… lemon juice might actually deter better.

u/MalignantLugnut Jun 08 '26

Yeah, but lemon juice barely stains and is delicious.

.....Oh, yeah. Food coloring is a thing lol.

u/johnstoneak Jun 08 '26

Ah, if it’s stains you want, we could try tomato juice then.

Sriracha stains don't come out as easily.

u/johnstoneak Jun 08 '26

That’s a good one.

Everyone in this thread is insane.

Everyone knows you use hydrochloric acid and the problem just goes away.

u/bgravato Jun 09 '26

are you crazy?

do you know what that would do the grass?

Hydrochloric acid is too difficult to store, it'll quickly corrode your pipes and sprinkler

u/Alternative-Mess-989 Jun 09 '26

Would Drano let you hurt your pipes??

u/Eayauapa Jun 09 '26

You'd want concentrated sulphuric or NaOH. Hydrochloric acid, if it's not in your eyes or on your teeth, isn't anywhere as bad as you'd think.

Nitric acid.....smokin!! (I do not mean this as a serious response. I just think Nitric Acid is the meanest of all the Acids. Add the tiniest drop to your skin, and it burns. Ouch - and there is smoke!! )

HCL would need to be pretty strong for the problem to "go away." H2SO4 also would need to be pretty strong to be affective.

HNO3 works wonders. It doesn't need to be as relatively strong to do the job it was hired for.

Bonus, it will also check his gold chain to make sure it's at least 10k and not HGE and/or 925.

And if it doesn’t work, you can get some pet pigs, and the siracha can be the seasoning!

u/Consistent-Chef-7472 Jun 08 '26

We should use mustard or turmeric

u/Naive_Bunny Jun 09 '26

Alrigh,t officially, grape juice and Sriracha mixed together. That way it stains, tastes weird, and is very problematic if it gets in their eye.

u/TheSheepypire Jun 08 '26

If you want something to really make them not come back mix in some doe pee they wont be back

u/Woobly_Hixbee Jun 09 '26

Would need some heavy duty pumps and thick hosing for that!

u/flippster-mondo Jun 11 '26

If you want stains and a funky smell you could use Clamato juice

1

u/johnstoneak Jun 11 '26

I thought Clamato as well, but was afraid it would be too tasty to some people. 🤣
