Editorial Review:

Amazon.com Product Description:
The Contech Electronics Scarecrow Motion-Activated Sprinkler presents an innovative, humane way to keep pets and wildlife from disturbing your yard and garden without the use of complicated traps or potentially hazardous chemicals. The sprinkler combines a surprise spray of water with unexpected motion and noise to create a safe, effective deterrent to unwanted visitors, helping keep your garden looking its best.


The Contech Electronics Scarecrow Motion-Activated Sprinkler:
  • Uses a startling burst of water to deter animals
  • Teaches pets and wildlife to avoid your yard and garden
  • Is safe, humane, and environmentally-friendly




One Scarecrow can cover up to 1000 sq.ft. View larger.


The Scarecrow protects your garden without using any hazardous chemicals. View larger.
Safe, Humane Deterrent Helps Protect Your Garden
A huge amount of time and energy goes into keeping your yard and garden looking great, so it's only natural that you want to protect them from damage caused by hungry wildlife or local dogs and cats. But there are lots of reasons to avoid chemical deterrents, traps, and hazardous electric fences.

Whether you're a dedicated organic vegetable gardener or a parent looking out for the health of children and pets that play in your yard, you'll appreciate the simple, innovative, and effective water-based concept behind the Scarecrow Motion-Activated Sprinkler. It's also a great choice for neighborhoods where fences are prohibited and for people who consider wire fences and other visual barriers unappealing.

When the ScareCrow detects an animal it instantly releases a short but startling burst of water. The sudden spray of water and the movement and noise of the sprinkler scares animals away. Animals associate this negative experience with the area and avoid your yard in the future.

Versatile and Broad-Reaching for Maximum Effectiveness
The Scarecrow is versatile enough to keep deer, rabbits, and other foragers from snacking on plants and bulbs, to prevent dogs from digging up newly seeded lawns, to keep the cat from using your garden as a litter box, and to scare predators like herons and raccoons away from your fish pond.

The ScareCrow's motion detector is powerful enough to guard an area up to 1000 square feet of coverage with a single sprinkler. For added coverage, Scarecrow sprinklers can be linked in series to guard larger spaces.

Efficient Design and Easy to Set Up
Setting the Scarecrow up is fast and easy, and doesn't require any special tools. Simply install a standard 9-volt battery, connect the sprinkler to your hose, push the 17-inch stake into ground to secure the unit, and set the adjustable sprinkler arc to cover the area you want protected.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Saved a relationship with a neighbor over our cat(s)
We have a few cats that are ours but were found as ferals - thus, they are out and about all the time and come close to our yard only for feeding times. A new neighbor whose younger daughters play in the front yard on the grass found that they were using a section as a "potty area". Cat repellents (spray or other)worked for only a week at $10.00+ a week....in looking at the reviews on this I thought this was worth a try. After purchasing the Scarecrow and a hose for the neighbor - 2 weeks later ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - SCARECROW
I am very impressed with this product. I had a very bad problem with deer and rabbits destroying my garden (especially just after planting). The scarecrow picked up on the rabbits very well while the garden was new and low.

The only thing that you have to watch out for is that if you have a lot of animal activity the scarecrow tends to use the battery up quickly.

This product worked so well that I purchased a second one.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best deer deterrent I've found so far
This product WORKS!!! I live in an urban area with a LOT of deer that are not afraid of humans. They love to eat my beatutiful flowers and shrubs, year round. After losing almost all my daylily blooms & blossoms to hungry deer one night (considering we had sprayed everything with the smelly stuff first), I decided it was WAR on deer and purchased the scarecrow. The blossoms that hadn't been eaten managed to bloom undisturbed, and they no longer use my yard as a path to destruction at the neighbors' ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Scarecrow Sprinkler Works
I had a severe deer problem in my home garden. They had nearly destroyed everything after I had invested many hours of labor. I had tried several home remedies (soaps, ropes, repellents), with little sucess. After talking to neighbors and searching on line, I decided to try the sprinkler. So far it has worked well. The garden has recovered and is producing at a reduced rate. I'm looking forward to next year and a better crop.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - AWESOME PRODUCT - HOWEVER
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R15ZVCQFRWLE79 The deer no longer think our garden is a midnight buffet as the Scarecrow works like a charm. Yes, I have to remember to turn it off when I go in the backyard, but it does not spray that much, mostly makes noise which startles the forest critters. Though our neighbours grandkids think it is blast to run through on hot day, which is fine. However the spray head is made completely of plastic and after 1 1/2 summers of duty, the nub that holds that ... Read More
