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. Customer Reviews

 Rating:  - Contech Electronics Scarecrow Saves Another GardenWe were very pleased to have finally found a product that would help us fight against the squirrels that were eating our newly planted ground cover. Now when they least expect it, the Scarecrow Motion Sprinkler will go off with a good spray of water sending the critters scampering. Well worth the cost! You do have to adjust a bit to get the correct position (a few funny wet mishaps) but once in proper placement it works like a charm. The Scarecrow has found a harmless solution to garden pests. Rating:  - Not robust enoughThe scarecrow works. That is it works under ideal circumstances. We have a lot of landscaping and wind trips it too easy. It trips so much (when no animal is nearby) that the batteries run down and it is useless when it is needed. If you have an open area that you're wanting to protect it probably will work fine. However, if you have a lot of landscaping that you are wanting to keep dogs, cats and chickens out of, you may find it to be a disappointment. Rating:  - Works for me!1) It worked and I'd highly recommend it. I had severe deer problems in the garden, got it, and then there was about zero deer problems. A week before frost, I removed it and in three days the tops of my green beans were GONE! 2) Four stars, because it was delivered with a nicked wire that actually broke while it was in use (Before purchase I read a few folks who recieved bad units- so maybe there's a little quality control issue with it). 3) Some other reviews mention that it's a lot of cheap looking plastic for a fair chunk of change. Yep, it's plastic, and I wish it was sturdier, but what isn't plastic these days, and right or wrong, this is a product that you'd sort of expect to be a few extra bucks. ...

Whatever it was ate all my beans before I decided to buy the Scarecrow. Since I installed it the beans have grown back and I'm planning on peas for the winter garden. I just wish I had purchased this a long time ago. I probably would have saved my fish pond too which was ravaged by some critters on a regular basis. The Scarecrow is very responsive and shoots water for a long distance. I sometimes forget it's on and get wet! Rating: - Very Limited PerformanceI utilized the Scarecrow to keep my dog out of a rock garden area. Unless the dog is exactly in front of the unit and moving across, it does not activate. Even when her wagging tail is in front of the unit it does not activate. The degree of activation should be in the 45 degree range rather than in the 10 degree range. I have quit using it as it does not help. |
