 It's kewl...and I think it is working October 24, 2008
We had Raccoons and Herons and Cats all hanging out around our pond. Not for sure this is what is doing the trick however we've had it in place for a month now and the planters in the pond that kept getting knocked over haven't. Only problem I've found is that when I come home from work I always like to waltz by the pond and look for fish. I keep forgetting about this thing and it has nailed me every time! :~)
 Eliminates Hooved Vermin October 16, 2008
After deer destroyed my wife's garden over the space of three short nights, we invest in a scarecrow. It was easy to assemble and install and worked perfectly. As long as it is on, it keeps the filthy beasts out of our garden. One caveat: our deer seem to test it regularly and have returned to the garden when I've forgotten to leave the hose on. If you have a hose in your garden and a deer problem, I would not hesitate to buy this product. It works!
Does NOT Work 100% For Heron But Does Deter October 13, 2008
Positives of this scarecrow are that it gives the extended family a lot of laughter every time we forget it's there or are doing yardwork and get sprayed by an unexpected jet of water. The miniature dachshund also loves to attack it -- setting the nozzle off which makes her bark and growl even more insanely at it.
It has NOT, however, kept a great blue heron from taking fish from our koi pond. Just this morning I found yet another speared (but not eaten) very large dead goldfish laying on the lawn nearby -- seemingly captured by the heron and then abandoned. Since this is the third fish we've lost since installing the scarecrow -- I would suggest it might scare the bird away from consuming all the fish, after it steals one fish, but it does not keep it away altogether.
Excellent scarecrow sensor works! October 6, 2008
We were having a difficult time keeping rabbits off our lawn. One had returned yet again to start another nest, after I had cautiously relocated her bunnies from her last litter to another area. I was concerned as I did not want to cause any harm to her offspring. Once this product was installed, it was able to detect the slightest motion in its path, and a stream of water would scare it off. We have not seen any more rabbits on the lawn since this was installed, however we did water down a guy sent to do some lawn work at our request!! NOTE: If the scarecrow is set at its most sensitive, a strong breeze or wind will also set it off.
What a great product! October 3, 2008
Before the Scarecrow, my garden was being "eaten alive" by all sorts of pests...racoons, skunks, squirrels, etc. Even after covering with chicken wire and mesh, they figured out a way to get in. With the scarecrow in place, I took down the ugly chicken wire and my garden was left untouched! It's a terrific concept (wish I would have thought of it) that really truly works. Just have to remember to turn it off before tending to your crops, or else your its next victim. Fantastic product!
