 Works great for turkeys September 6, 2008
Turkeys were tearing up our garden on a daily basis. After installing the crow, we have only experienced minimum damage on a sporatic basis. It really works.
Repels the way it's suppose to. September 5, 2008
This was purchased to scare deer out of the yard. So far...it's done the job beautifully. It's easy to set up and use. My biggest problem is remembering to turn it off and getting squirted myself. It also scares dogs out of the yard and occasionally a squirrel and birds. Amazon had the best price I could find on this item. It's well worth the money if you grow fruits and vegetables and don't want critters eating your garden. I gave this five stars but it should get ten stars.
Keeps the birds off my tomatoes - and the kids out of the strawberry patch! September 4, 2008
I purchased this as a last-ditch effort to keep the local blackbirds from raiding my tomatoes (I like to let them vine ripen), and found that it works well at a range of 3-5 metres. I am surprised by reviews which say this does not work for smaller animals, as I have had great success with this product - it quickly provides a strong burst of water, and most animals flee immediately.
Has also provided many good laughs when my neighbour's kids try to help themselves to my strawberries! They have learned to ask first, so that I can switch it off for them!
 Bought another one September 2, 2008
These work great ...I couldn't wait to get it set up as soon as it arrived. I used a LESS than fresh 9v battery and it worked OK. Within 2 weeks it was less than reliable, as a matter of fact it wasn't working at all, most of the time. I got out the owners manual and began to trouble shoot the symptoms. First off a new copper top battery, next a towel to dry off my face, finally I fired up the laptop and ordered another one. My problem was a dead battery, that was about a month ago. Since then I've installed a second scare crow sprinkler and they both work great.
I would give 5 stars but they are kind of pricy, so I dinged the review a little for quality ..... its all plastic,
great watch dog August 30, 2008
Although I'm still adjusting it so that it doesn't soak the neighbors as they walk down the sidewalk, the scarecrow works exactly as advertised right out of the box. Well made and sturdy.
