Rating:  - Excellent Product!
The Contech Electronics Scarecrow is an excellent product to keep animals away from specific areas like ponds, gardens, outside children's play areas (so that animals don't urinate or what ever in the play area at night, etc.) It is not suited well for too large areas because what frightens the animals is the noise of the sprinkler head and of course the water spray is an annoyance in the area nearest the sprinkler head. If you need to service a large area plan on purchasing more than one. I love the product! It has saved my pond fish from egrets and raccoons. I plan to purchase one for my garden since I have seen it chase away squirrels as well.

An excellent product. Keeps the deer and other animals from eating your plants without injuring the animals. We have had such good luck we plan to order several more for next year.
Rating: - Scares The Deer Away
Deer were destroying our gardens and deer repellents weren't working. I purchased two Scarecrows and so far the deer have stayed awayed. The first couple of nights I could hear the Scarecrows going off but it quickly stopped after that and so far so good. If it stays this way then the Scarecrows were worth every penny.
Rating: - Scarecrow scares raccoons some of the time
I bought this product to scare raccoons away from newly planted ground cover, which they dug up every night in their search for grubs. Frustrating! I had tried to foil them with just about everything, including sitting up at night with a shotgun, but the devils knew when I was there and waited until I was too tired or cold to stay. Then they came out to do their dirty work.
The Scarecrow worked well the first several times, until the masked bandits somehow figured out how get under the radar of the motion sensor. It then helped to move the device so that it targeted them from a different direction.
This product works well--I can vouch for that since it has gotten me, my husband, and the gas meter man soaked more than once. But raccoons are wily critters. Make sure you change the Scarecrow's location every few days to make them think they're being ambushed from all sides, and it should drive them off the area you're protecting.

We received our scarecrow and when it didn't work, we sent an email to the company. This was answered by a canned statement that the product must be dirty and we should clean it. When we called the company they took us through a series of "tests" to check for dirt,again. Even though I told them that it had not been used so how could it be dirty. They finallly agreed to send a new product, which we have not received as yet. I would not buy from this company again.
