Editorial Reviews:

Finally a way to keep unwanted animals out of the garden and protect your yard, fruit trees, vegetables and flowers from hungry or destructive creatures. Cats, dogs, deer, rabbits, large birds, and many others. The patented Scarecrow motion-activated sprinkler is the smartest scarecrow ever invented. When it sees an intruder it instantly releases full garden hose water pressure towards the trespasser. The effect is both startling and immediate. Animals quickly get out of the area and avoid it in the future.The ScareCrow motion-activated sprinkler is constructed of durable, high-quality materials, and has been designed to provide many years of reliable service.

Using the ScareCrow is easy. Simply attach a standard garden hose to its base, set the ScareCrow in the ground in the area you want to protect, and then turn on the water. Once you switch the unit on, it is ready to go.

How does it work?
The ScareCrow uses a combination of sudden noise, unexpected movement, and a startling blast of water to create a memorable and unpleasant experience for the trespasser.
The animal immediately associates this unpleasant experience with the location, and to avoid similar surprises, learns to avoid the area. If an animal chooses to return, the ScareCrow will be waiting.
While a human may flee several steps after activating a ScareCrow, animals are typically affected to a much greater degree. In most cases they run much farther, and stay away longer. Because the unit only triggers when the animal moves, its behavior is difficult for animals to anticipate, making it a very effective deterrent.

Summary: Great for medium-sized gardens
Comment: I'm loving this thing for the amusement factor alone. While it's not perfect for my purposes, it is getting the job done.
This sprinkler deterrent would be perfect for a medium-sized (or larger) garden, but I bought it to keep my young dog out of my 8X12 front yard planter. It works, but pulling the cars into the driveway also triggers it and occasionally people walking past my house on the sidewalk have triggered it, too. The sensitivity setting is kind of hit or miss, but it hasn't failed to activate when needed and has saved my new plants from a rampaging puppy.
The spike that holds it up could stand to be longer. I had to brace mine to keep it upright, as the water comes out with some force and sprays a good distance. I do, however, have it installed in a new planter with loose soil.
All in all, I'm happy with it and would definitely buy it again.

Summary: Works great!!!
Comment: We purchased the scarecrow to stop the Blue Heron's from eating our Koi fish in our pond. We tried an owl, plastic heron (moved to different locations frequently) and nothing worked. UNTILL---we purchased the scarecrow. It has been great and no fish missing. I must say my grand-kids also love it to run through and make it squirt them. Teriffic product.

Summary: It worked on me!!!
Comment: I use three Sarecrows to protect my garden. One morning I forgot to turn off the water. The blast from one of the "crows' caused me to drop everything i was carrying and scamper out of the garden. it startled the tar out of me!
Only negative so far is battery life is about 1 month. I am now trying rechargeable batteries.
