Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Finally a way to keep unwanted animals out of the garden and protect your yard, fruit trees, vegetables and flowers from hungry or destructive creatures. Cats, dogs, deer, rabbits, large birds, and many others. The patented Scarecrow motion-activated sprinkler is the smartest scarecrow ever invented. When it sees an intruder it instantly releases full garden hose water pressure towards the trespasser. The effect is both startling and immediate. Animals quickly get out of the area and avoid it in the future.The ScareCrow motion-activated sprinkler is constructed of durable, high-quality materials, and has been designed to provide many years of reliable service.
How does it work? The ScareCrow uses a combination of sudden noise, unexpected movement, and a startling blast of water to create a memorable and unpleasant experience for the trespasser. The animal immediately associates this unpleasant experience with the location, and to avoid similar surprises, learns to avoid the area. If an animal chooses to return, the ScareCrow will be waiting. While a human may flee several steps after activating a ScareCrow, animals are typically affected to a much greater degree. In most cases they run much farther, and stay away longer. Because the unit only triggers when the animal moves, its behavior is difficult for animals to anticipate, making it a very effective deterrent. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Repels the way it's suppose to.This was purchased to scare deer out of the yard. So far...it's done the job beautifully. It's easy to set up and use. My biggest problem is remembering to turn it off and getting squirted myself. It also scares dogs out of the yard and occasionally a squirrel and birds. Amazon had the best price I could find on this item. It's well worth the money if you grow fruits and vegetables and don't want critters eating your garden. I gave this five stars but it should get ten stars. Rating: - Keeps the birds off my tomatoes - and the kids out of the strawberry patch!I purchased this as a last-ditch effort to keep the local blackbirds from raiding my tomatoes (I like to let them vine ripen), and found that it works well at a range of 3-5 metres. I am surprised by reviews which say this does not work for smaller animals, as I have had great success with this product - it quickly provides a strong burst of water, and most animals flee immediately. Has also provided many good laughs when my neighbour's kids try to help themselves to my strawberries! They ...

Within 2 weeks it was less than reliable, as a matter of fact it wasn't working at all, most of the time. I got out the owners manual and began to trouble shoot the symptoms. First off a new copper top battery, next a towel to dry off my face, finally I fired up the laptop and ordered another one. My problem was a dead battery, that was about a month ago. Since then ...

Well made and sturdy. Rating: - Excellent ProductI wouldn't have a garden if it wasn't for these sprinklers. Before I started using this product the deer were eating everything in my garden. Once I set up the sprinklers the deer ceased to be a problem. They deer appear to remember that the sprinklers are there and now keep their distance -- sometimes right on the periphery of the sprinkler's sensing range. I currently have four in use with two back-ups in the shed. Despite being a few years old and having been through some rough winters, mineral ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
