 Humane way to deter deer August 27, 2008
I wish we would have had this product before the deer ate most of this year's daylilies and hostas. Looking forward to a garden without deer next season. Product scares away the deer and neighborhood kids that use our property as a shortcut home. Would recommend highly - even though its expensive - I think its worth it!

I gave this to my dad for father's day last year to try to keep the deer, possums, and woodchucks away from his vegetables, and to keep the neighbor's cats from overfertilizing them. It works great. Both years it's taken about a month for the animals to get the message, but then they don't even come near the garden. Yes, it will spray you if you're not careful, and a good stiff breeze can move the bushes enough to trigger it, but it works. Only warning, you need to think before you put this thing in you're garden. It took a couple tries to get location perfect so it covers the whole garden. Now my dad has so many veggies, he has to give them away. Great tool!
THE DEER HAVE NOT BEEN BACK!!! August 26, 2008
I was really upset to see the tomatoes, gladiolous, cucumbers, pumpkins, corn, canteloupes and other plants and flowers grazed over by deer one morning... you wait all winter, plant, water, fertilize, hope, then all in one night some stupid deer eats it all!!! I set up two Scarecrows in my yard and the deer, and rabbits, have not been back!!!!!!! Plants have recovered. The sensor range is good and they don't use a lot of water, and they are effective. I've even seen them activated by squirrels.
Scary for the wildlife! August 26, 2008
We purchased this to scare the deer away from eating our garden. It is very effective. It also works great on squirrels, groundhogs and neighborhood cats. Yesterday, I was amused as I watched a squirrel trying to "army crawl" past the front of it. When he was in range, it came to life and boy did he jump and run!
We need to adjust the sensitivity so it doesn't keep going off for false alarms, such as the breeze blowing the trees. Overall, we are very pleased with the product.

 pretty darned good product August 23, 2008
My wife and I live in the woods and we are avid gardeners. We didn't like putting fences up and the Scarecrow is the only product that has been effective in protecting our Oriental Lilies. Sadly, the Scarecrow only had a life of two years. This year, the ravenous creatures have even acquired a taste for Hostas! Even though the Scarecrow stopped working this Spring, I'm going to buy two more for next season.
