Having trouble with returning animal "visitors"? Need a deterrent that will keep even the most daring animals away, time and time again? Then try the Scarecrow, a device that blasts animals with a blast of water when they approach. Simply push the mounting spike into your lawn, attach your garden hose and you'll have a foolproof animal deterring system. Requires a 9V battery (sold separately). When the PIR motion detector senses motion it sprays a 3 to 4-second burst of water then resets. Spray coverage can be adjusted from a narrow 10 coverage to 360, and the 35-foot range lets you place the Scarecrow where it makes the most sense. Effective on dogs, cats, raccoons, deer, etc. To keep animals guessing, simply pull up the Scarecrow, move it to a different location, and turn the water on. Soon, animals won't know where they'll be sprayed from, and will be wary of entering the protected area. Requires a 9V battery (sold separately), which powers the unit for approximately 6 months under normal use.
