Also let's add: Cross posting, and posting to threads that died over a
month ago! "Very poor form" says Capt Hook (and he should know). ;o) ~ jan In article , wrote: John, I bought a Cat/Dog Stop (ultrasonic repellant) from www.backyard-lifestyle.com to keep the raccoons and squirrels out of my garden. It works great, uses a motion detector to increase the 9v battery life, so it lasts for months. With a Deer's hearing, I would expect them to be afraid of an Ultrasonic Repellant too.

And I'm annoyed with myself for at first mistaking you for a hornswoggled victim of some purveyor of worthless junk, rather than yourself the hornswoggling purveyor. A warning to all: This spammer's persistantly recommended product is bogus. Though he pretends to be a satisfied customer for the bogus product, he has posted nothing but spams for this company, & seems to think he can pass undetected as a stealth spammer. So two acts of a crook: Pretending satisfaction with a product known to be bogus, & pretending not to be a spammer. Really three crooked acts, spamming newsgroups at all is just not done by any company that could be considered honest & competent. See this overview of the worthless product, with university links in-text: http://www.paghat.com/ultrasonic.html -paghat the ratgirl I hope this helps, Norman ~Power to the Porg, Flow On!~ |

Really three crooked acts, spamming newsgroups at all is just not done by any company that could be considered honest & competent. Snip While I certainly applaud the anti spam work ... I just wanted to say that the particular model being recommended here does show some effectiveness in my highly scientific back yard and beer tests... We have many feral and semi-feral cats in the neighborhood, they are attracted to the bird feeders / pond and tend to use my garden as a litter-box / lovers-lane. I've tried all sorts of things to keep them out and am always looking for something easier for me.. (after all I can't sit there with the garden hose 24/7).. Anyway sitting in the yard drinking beer and watching for the cats and pointing it at them and triggering it they do leave the yard, casually quietly (supposedly humanely), but not at all satisfactorily (for me.. I want them to jump!). The Squirrels and Raccoons don't seem to care…but neither do the birds. The company that makes these things also makes the Scarecrow hose jobbie.. which has been the most effective area deterrent I've found, its only drawbacks are the fact that it is tough to set it so it wont spray the birds, and it leaks. After the sprayer, orange peel and Cayenne pepper seem still slightly more effective than the ultrasonic thing.. For zone defense, I prefer the fi-shock fence… nothing seems to get past it and it should work for the deer in the OP. Currently the fi-shock surrounds the pond and winds through the background foliage, orange peel in all the garden beds, and the scare crow covering much of the open area. I figure I'll use the ultra sonic thing to keep them from crapping on the porch … (I think I've offended them) Anyway all these things are available all over the web there is no need to buy from spammers … |
