Pest Deterrents - Garden Supplies

Scarecrow - The Scarecrow consistently creates a memorable and unpleasant experience through a combination of: 

• sudden unexpected noise
• unexpected movement, and water spray.
• The animal immediately associates this unpleasant experience with the location.
• To avoid similar surprises, they begin to avoid the area. While humans flee several steps after activating a Scarecrow motion-activated sprinkler, animals are scared to a much greater degree, run much further and stay away longer.

We attribute this difference in part to the inherent fight or flight survival  response found in most animals and their lack of intelligence or ability to 'figure out' what caused the annoying noise and motion. Scarecrow protects day and night for up to 6 months (or 3000+ activations) on one 9 volt battery

Other reasons why the Scarecrow works:

• Training/repelling is consistent at the location, 24 hours a day.
• It is the environment rather than a person or other animal doing the 'conditioning'.
• The water spray is sufficiently surprising and unpleasant to communicate an immediate, 'Leave now' message.
