| Keep Unwanted Animals Out Of Your Yard! Protect your yard and garden, flower beds, fish ponds, garbage can areas, and areas where children are playing with our new Electronic Yard Fence. The passive infra-red motion sensor triggers ultrasonic sounds (80 to 115dB) that create an uncomfortable environment to drive out all unwanted animals including raccoons, rabbits, deer, dogs, cats and more. Never again clean-up after your neighbor's pets! Includes an adjustable wall mounting bracket to allow for 180 degree direction adjustment plus a focusing cone for greater effective distance. Operates with UL approved adapter and 50 ft. cable, or two 9V batteries (not included). |

| Installed and so far (may 15) no deer or rabbits. I also installed a motion sensor with two lights so when the deer get near wierd noises are emitted and lights go on. My next strategy is to add a radio that goes on when motion is detected. No self respecting deer could handle wierd noises, lights and country music. |
Works well, but beware of problems

| I bought this to keep free-roaming cats out of my garden. My son can hear the high-frequency sirening sound and it makes him run from the yard, fast. Since I put this in the garden a month ago, I have noticed no new cat scat. I think it does work. However, the device is sort of strange. The power is 220, and the narrow plastic enclosure for the 220 outlet does not permit any of my 120 adapters to fit into it. The manual says that there is a UL power port and there is a UL adapter with a long cord that comes with it. But there is no UL port anywhere at all, so you have to use the two 9v batteries instead. I decided to keep it since it seems to work ok on batteries. But then, the wire connectors to the batteries are so short, you have to wrestle the batteries in with more strength than my hands have. It was a husband-please job, then sustain the swearing. Oddly the manual proudly explains and shows the UL adapter with photos, but the photos do not match the device. So user - beware. If you're ok with using batteries and fighting the thing to get them attached, then this electronic fence seems to work well. On battery power, the siren sound is loud, screeching and unbearable, according to my son. The motion detector is good. It is not bothering the crow who comes around, but I'm seeing fewer songbirds in my garden now in the spring, when it is normally crowded with birds. If you have fruit trees, that's a good thing. |
electronic fence not suitable for busy street

This device sounded everytime a car, person, or animal passed by, that was every few minutes or seconds on my busy street. Therefore, I could not use this electronic fence to discourage the many dogs and their owners from using my front yard for a public toilet.
Instead, I tried kindness to encourage dog owners to go elsewhere to let their dogs poop. I smiled and spoke to everyone who passed by. It seems to be working, at least to discourage pooping but not urinating. Dog owners don't seem to know that urine makes grass brown.
Unfortunatley, I could not return the device for a refund because I did not do so in the alloted time. |
