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.

I've had the Scare Crow for a little over a month now and the short answer is it works! Now the details: I have a cat problem! Its not that I don't like them, it's that they spray, poop, and fight each other, and I guess I'm the ring master. I've tried all the deterrence, red pepper and all the other smells that don't work. So I installed the Scare Crow and cleaned my garden of poop, i.e. the cat box! Each morning at about the same time the Scare Crow would go off. This went on for about a week. I inspected the cat box, (carefully) :$, and no poop. Hurray whatever is growing that should smell nice!!! You will need to tighten the hose to the Scare Crow a couple of times to stop the leaks but with a good garden hose that can stand the nonstop pressure and in my case in AZ the heat you will see results. Oh and as a bonus in my case no Dove Crap on my patio. If I can review again I'll post the results after a year of ownership.

Overall, it appears a little cheaply made, but it works well. So far it has kept the grandkids out of the garden, scared at least a couple of deer away and shot me directly in the face at point black range when I forgot it was on, O yeh, I also got the neighbor on his riding lawnmower. Now, Let's see if it holds up.

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.

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.

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.

I bought the ScareCrow Sprinkler. and I love it. My Neighbor told me about it when he got his. and I put mine up once I got it. I use it to keep the damn animals out of my flower bed's . they came over and would shit in the flower beds and toss the dirt out trying to cover there shit.. No longer they don't come back.. FINALLY... Something that works.. I will be sure to let every one know about it and where to get it from.

fun to play with,- you really should read their instructions first, and put on the stickers. if possible, all four corners of your house should have one. In my case, one corner is too close to neighbors. I sent email to the maker for info on extension pipes - no response. reduced sensitivity to exclude street traffic and wind in trees. it works for dogs, cats, and neighbors. have not noticed any more deer damage yet.

I bought this to keep small birds away from my pool but it doe not always detect them and when it does go off, it dose not scare them. Also it kicks on about every 5 min or so even though nothing is there to activate it. I might use it in my garden as it does scare the dog so at least it will keep her out. I think this item is over priced for what it is and how it works.

The system works great. My husband was looking for something that would be both efficient and effective to deter a night marauder from digging in our garden. An area cat also found the garden appealing as a cat box (gross!). We installed the ScareCrow to monitor the garden over night and all are problems were solved! It even keeps the dog from peeing on the corners of our garden box (Bonus!).

First off shipping was fast. I set the sprinkler up and the problem disappeared immediately. Pros: Sprinkler scares away animals even if they are not near it just from its sudden sound. Whenever a hot car drives by it sometimes goes off and I see all the neighbor cats jump to attention. Cons: It is sensitive to changes in heat so on a hot day the yard gets hot and heat rises in front of the sensor and when the wind blows the sprinkler goes off. During the day I have to set it at 7 and I turn it to 8 at night to cover the whole yard.

Best pricing anywhere for the ScareCrow! Shipping was fast. Product worked excellent to run off the ducks that were pooping on our swim platform.

Last year, the deer mowed our strawberry plants about a week before the berries were ripe. We only had a handful of berries for the season. This year the plants are full of berries and the deer have been frightened away often enough that they now detour around our garden area. Mission accomplished!

I have exhausted every possible natural deterrent in the market. I came across this and decided to give it a try. Well, every since I installed this (very easy) in my yard, I haven't had one cat use my garden as a bathroom! The cats are so afraid of it. They now are afraid of it from afar. It really, really works well! I recommend it highly.

So far so good...after making the required adjustments in sensitivity, not one eaten hosta and.... I think we've solved the cat poop problem along the foundation of the house...the only problem so far is the adjustment for spray distance... it slips out of adjustment from vibration of sprinkler...

We purchased the ScareCrow to keep our chickens out of my flower beds. We of course caught the chickens reaction the first time they set it off, so funny! We are very happy with the product and will most likely purchase another for our garden area.

Tried everything last year. Netting, amonia, pepper,and all the stuff recomended on the internet. This year I was ready to put up a electric wire system. About $100 and a lot of time and work. Saw the ScareCrow on line and tried it on my 4x40' above ground garden. It took about 10 minutes to install. It's been in place about three weeks, and NOT ONE cat poop pile. All that fresh soil must drive them nuts. They stay clear. Last year it was a daily chore to clean up after them. VERY HAPPY..WORKS GREAT !!

Does its job effectively. My yard is cleaner. It was very easy to set it up. The product quality seems good and robust for outdoor use.

I'm still trying to work with the unit. I have some kind of varmint digging up my garden. The scarecrow didn't deter whatever it is. I think it may be Armadillos, since I have seen them in the yard a lot. I moved the scarecrow closer to the garden, hoping this would help. I also changed the battery as it has already discharged after 2 weeks. If this doesn't work, I'm thinking about returning it.

We have had one for about a year and it works great. I detects movement about 30 feet and our water pressure lets it spray about that far. We bought another one to extend our protection even farther. Donna & Frank

Great product and great service. My dogs hate these things so they do a great job of keeping them out of my vegetable garden. Be careful though. My wife and grandmother both got sprayed within two days. Service is terrific if you have an issue too.
