Works perfectly!! Neighbors dog stopped making "pit-stops" after only a couple of times. NOW , even if I have the scarecrow off or disconnected, he sees it and goes AWAY from my property. I have moved it several times, so that it "appears" a little different a few times a week. Even the digging squirrls have left my property - EXCELLANT = no more holes in my lawn.

After trying several methods to keep the geese off the yard, I am using three of these along the shore line to achieve my goal. Works like a charm.

I live in a rural area and we are loaded with deer. My back yard is apparently part of their "trail." I've used the ScareCrow Sprinkler for about 6 years and it is absolutely the BEST deer deterrent I've tried! I have had ZERO deer (or rabbit) damage since I've used them. This product was the least expensive I've purchased and it arrived within three days. Outstanding service! I highly recommend this to all gardeners.

I have 6 SFG raised beds, no fence with 2 scarecrows standing guard and haven't lost a plant yet. The deer graze around the garden but don't go in. My neighbor has 1 pointed at his driveway to keep the JW's out; it must be working because he is still an atheist. I just bought 2 more to expand my garden and plan on buying many more.

Absolutely the best purchase I have made in animal deterrent! A lady has been walking her dog and letting it poop in my yard everyday when I am at work. Also the neighborhood cats love my bark dust also. So everyday I come home my yard smells and there are several messes. I tried everything from over the counter and natural methods to rat traps! Nothing worked ! I purchased the scarecrow and for the first time in months my yard has no mess and smells great when I come home ! No more poop! It was easy to hook up I had it up and going in about ten minutes. The scarecrow is like having an armed gaurs with a water machine gun! And it waters my yard at the same time! Absolutely the solution !!!! I highly recommend this product to anyone with a similar problem. Five stars

We purchased the sprinkler to help protect our garden from rodents and other animals. Since we purchased this product, we have not lost anymore of our green beans or any other plants to the rabbits! The sensor works great and even goes off if a bird flies within its range. My husband and I have been impressed by the sprinkler so far.

....that's the one word that comes to mind. I'm primarily concerned about deer in my garden. And, I could see by the deer's skid tracks on the outer perimeter of the Scarecrow's range that this thing performs as advertised: the tracks indicated panic exit. I also watched my neighbor's cat get blasted. The only constructive criticism I can offer new owners is to use one wrap of plumbers tape on each threaded joint. Garden hose joints are historically not water-tight: they drip. These are no different. Be careful not to over-tighten. Song birds do seem to get used to the yellow predator decals on the motion sensor. Rabbits don't know what to make of it and remain a little nervous. Scarecrow is a very reliable product. Highly recommended. It provides the next best source of security for your plants. In my opinion, only a shotgun is better. But, you have to be there to pull the trigger.

I purchased the ScareCrow to keep the neighbors cat away from my bird feeders. She was killing the birds and wrecking the feeders. I didn't want to hurt her but I was at my witts end. I surched the web and found the ScareCrow. It really works with no harm to the cat. I'm very happy. Oh and it keeps the squirrels away too. It's also fun to watch. :)

We bought our first Scarecrow many, many years ago. Like 10, 15? It's been a fish lifesaver for our pond, and has also provided many laughs and swearing when one inadvertently forgets about it and walks right in front of it yet again (you'd think we would have figured it out by now, but no). A Scarecrow is a must when you have a Koi pond (Don't think you have herons or raccoons? Put in a pond!) Our old Scarecrow was starting to fail, so we didn't put it up right away this spring, and lo and behold, my favorite Koi was stolen by a blasted heron! Hate herons!!! Deciding we needed a new Scarecrow stat, I ordered from DMOPC.com and not only impressed by how quick they got it to us, but by their great pricing, about half of what we paid for our original Scarecrow. The fish are now safely under guard, and as per another reviewer, I'm thinking of moving our old one out front to deter solicitors. I'm tired of people badgering me to change my religion and those who TAPE THEIR JUNK MAIL ON MY HOUSE! (And always right next to my large "No Soliciting" sign.) My office over looks the front walk and I can always use a laugh!

Since getting two of these sprinklers, I no longer have deer or cats in my flower beds. Prior to getting these, I was wasting money on having to replant flowers. These are easy to assemble and setup. I would highly recommend this to anyone with a pest problem.

We have tried everything....human hair, dog hair, fishing line, sprays, human smells.....everything anyone has ever told us that worked for them! Nothing seemed to keep the deer out of our garden short of the expense of fencing. The ScareCrow has been working for weeks now! We are delighted with it!

We've had to replant our flower beds twice in the past 3 years - at thousands of dollars in expense - and the deer keep destroying them. Tried everything: deer repellents, human hair, cayenne pepper spray, soap spray - nothing worked. Deer still walked through nightly, in herds sometimes, eating everything in sight. We bought a scarecrow last month - and the DEER are GONE. Roses we thought were dead are covered with blooms! Shrubs covered with new growth. We never post reviews. But this is a great product - effective, humane, and inexpensive. It evens sounds like a rattle snake at night! We just ordered two more.

It works as designed. We wish that the water spray can be adjust lower as we have it in the front yard of our home and have to aim at ~20ft away from the window. Oh! It was so funny to watch HD video clips from the security camera and saw the cats, the possums perform their dance in the water in the middle of the night.

I was amazed and more than delighted with this gizmo. Nightly visits by a "family" of racoons were leaving a mess of my newly-laid sod. My wife ran across a video of the "ScareCrow" and suggested I try it. Since I had attempted numerous other "cures" over a week's period I had nothing to lose. (Local trappers wanted $425 to trap and kill the critters; so $50 seemed like a bargain.) It arrived the next day. 5 minutes later it was set up and ready to "scare". What do you know!!! No more visitors and the sod is flourishing. I may even order another one for the deer this fall. Sorry your rating scale only has 5 stars. This product rates 6 or 7! Thanks.

Sprinklers work well in keeping deer and other pest away from garden areas. Customer service at DoYourOwn Pest Control is exceptional. Would highly recommend and will purchase from this site again.

My shrubs are reviving after being attacked by a family of deer. I did not have any problems at all with installation or any leakage. I turn the scarecrow on at night and shut it off during the day. This is the best thing ever! It worked for me and its worth the investment.

Keeps neighbor dogs off our property. Really works without doing harm to animal. For larger area you will need more then one though.

Easy to set up and use. Keeps the deer out of the flower beds. We can now enjoy the beauty of the yard. Only issue is the water leaks take some care in stopping.

I friend told me about these little babies, and I could not be more pleased with my purchase. Not only does it water my lawn, but I have also not had any issues with critters in my flowerbeds since! All of the neighbors want one now. And the best part? It also works for keeping the bratty neighbor's kids out of my flowers!

I should have gotten this a long time ago. It only took a few nights before the racoons got the message. This product is amazing, and I wish I got it sooner!

I wanted to keep turkeys and deer out of my rock garden. It's planted with deer-resistant plants, but they still tromped on it investigating things. Now, it has become a game with them. They check it out every day. It's like they are playing in the sprinklers! A few more deer now than before. But it WORKS. They do not touch the garden, nor do they hang around it. And it's fun for me to watch out my kitchen window.

I've use many of these sprinklers now - two are in my yard, protecting plants from the deer, and the three I just bought here are standing guard on the boarder of my mini-orchard. I used to buy them from through Amazon, but I found a better price here, and the same sprinkler. I love how well they work. And it's always fun when a pedestrian strays into its path!

I absolutely love this item, I have a cat that wanted to use my freshly tilled garden as her litter box! When ! set up the sprinkler, she had to be curious; only took one time and she hasn't entered the garden again and this was 3 weeks ago. I live near the woods with all kinds of animals coming in my yard. I check the garden every morning and haven't seen the first track of any varmint! Told my daughter about it and now she's ordering one ! Thank you so very much!!

The order was quickly sent and received in good shape. When replacing some 5 year old units that we use to keep the deer from our deck flowers, my husband found one of the new ones did not work. It was quickly solved by calling and talking to the service center. A replacement is on it's way. Great service, would definitily use this company again.

We had a problem with the neighbor's cats using my wife's garden as a toilet. A week of using the Scarecrow trained them to stay away. Good thing too, I couldn't take much more of her harping on me about it. Instructions are clear, follow them to success! Be sure to turn the sensitivity knob to zero when working in front of it. Or don't and let your spouse walk in front it, good times!
