What can I spray on wires to stop my cat from chewing on them?

Question

Both of my cats, Holly being the worst offender chew on my earbuds if I accidentally leave them somewhere and ruin them. I make sure not to leave them laying around for them to chew on but they still manage to find my earbuds. Is there anything I could possibly spray on the wires to deter my cats from chewing on them? Thank you! Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 2 years and 4 months old

They do make things like bitter apple sprays, lemon juice...etc that most pets don't like but some of them may not be deterred (and they may be sticky). Some cats dislike the smell of citrus, lemon thyme and lavender and you could try apply this to the wires but once again, some cats may not be deterred. The most reliable option is to put the ear buds in a location like a box where the cats cannot reach them. Best of luck and please feel free to post any additional questions.
