"I set up three of the ultrasonic repellers [CatStops] on one side of my yard and two of the water jet repellers [ScareCrows] on the other to see which is more effective at keeping cats out of my yard. After a week of use, both have been 100 percent effective... I am happy to announce that the Cat Wars are officially over and I was victorious. Read full story.

"Cats were spraying on all doors, and digging in the garden. No cat has been sighted since installation. Great stuff!!"
-L.C., Cheltenham, Australia

"Happily, since mounting the CatStop on the ceiling of our carport, cats paw tracks have become a thing of the past. We never touch the CatStop; it's always left turned on and mounted in it's position above where we park and it does it's job of chasing the cats without any further action on our parts… We are very pleased with the products performance."
-I. Thomson

"Another product, that we tried, is the Cat Stop. This tool is essentially a battery operated motion detector with a high pitch alarm in a waterproof case. I inadvertently turned it on in the house when I was putting in the battery. The cat ran like hellfire into another room. So I thought to my self that this starting out pretty good. In the rear yard I have a cat path. That's the road the neighborhood cats travel when going on their midnight excursions. Usually I just throw acorns at them to scare them away but in this case I am trying the Cat & Dog Stop. Set up is very easy and placement is simply putting a stake in the ground and placing the unit on top. Easy is good! I managed to set up the unit in a well-traveled cat path with the red warning light facing the house so that I could observe the goings on. About 9:00 o'clock, Mr. Cat appeared looking for his buddies to do some "a catpella" singing. The alarm went off and so did he. No pain no gain. I gained when he was pained by the sound."

SCARECROW

The Scarecrow has literally saved our farm. The neighbourhood ravens have devastated our crops for years: they snip the tops off of garlic and uproot transplants and leave them to dry out and die. They scratch away the mulch around plants that we've spent days laying down. We rely on our farm crops to make a living, and the ravens were costing us thousands of dollars in lost sales and time. Ravens are intelligent creatures and we were at a loss as to how to keep them off our property. Traditional scarecrows don't work; netting is expensive and time-consuming. The only way we can effectively protect our farm when we're not out in the fields ourselves is with our Scarecrows. Thanks to our Scarecrows, we're once again able to enjoy a lazy Sunday breakfast or go out to a movie and relax, knowing that our crops are safe at home.

It really works! I never thought I would see my daylillies again, or my hostas, and plant and be able to harvest from my vegetable garden - but the Scarecrow really does what it says! The deer have already started to wreck their usual havoc on neighbors' properties, but not ours! And that thanks goes to you folks for making available a product that really does keep the deer away. Thank you so much!!!!!

"Since purchasing the ScareCrow, I can tell you that not one deer has come back…After one night using the ScareCrow, that was it! My Cistus has bloomed for the first time in two years. Great product!"

"Your product has been the best item I've purchased in years. Until the arrival of your ScareCrow we tried every solution to manage the problem - nothing worked. Your product literally worked overnight and got rid of the raccoons 100%!"
Greg Hinkley, WI

"I am using mine to keep pigeons off the ground and from around the feeder. It is doing great and keeps them away 100%. As soon as they see it on the lawn they keep away. Thanks a lot."

With the vacation and gardening seasons in full swing, here's just the thing to protect your premises: the ScareCrow ($89), a motion-detecting sprinkler that takes direct aim at wandering animals or intruders. Just hook the battery operated device to a hose and stab it in the ground. When the sprinkler detects motion – up to 35 feet ahead and 45 feet to the sides – it shoots a short but startling burst of water at the trespasser".
