Agri Zap RZCOO1 Rat Zapper Classic Review

Agri Zap RZCOO1  Rat Zapper Classic
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have been using two Rat Zappers for a few months now, with mixed results. They seem to work most reliably when the batteries are absolutely fresh. In particular, ordinary alkaline batteries seem to be good for one or two kills only. The recommended (and considerably more expensive) lithium batteries last a little longer, but the claim of "3 months or 15 rodent kills" seems to be marketing hype. Even with the optional "Rat Pack," the lethality diminishes rapidly after a few kills. Without absolutely new batteries, I often find the kill light will be flashing but nothing will be in the trap, suggesting that a rat received a non-lethal shock. That is a rodent that has now been trained to never set foot in such a trap again.

What this product desperately needs is an AC adapter, so it can deliver consistently lethal shocks where an outlet is available. Alternatively, some better mechanism for determining when it's time to replace the batteries would be helpful, besides trying to judge spark length or the relative brightness of the LED indicator.

I have found traditional snap traps to be more consistently effective for rat control, though I still use the Rat Zappers in areas where snap traps would be a danger to pets or children. Just be prepared to spend a fortune on batteries.

RODAR II Ultrasonic Pest Repeller Review

RODAR II Ultrasonic Pest Repeller

I was skeptical that any of these ultrasonic devices would actually work at all.But, I have to say, this unit, the Rodar II, totally got the job done.I'm impressed.I had a squirrel problem in my attic, and this one pesky bugger just loved waking me up on early weekend mornings.The day I placed the Rodar II in my attic was the last day I ever heard of Mr. Squirrel.He left for the much quieter neighbor's house.Like it says here, the unit is practically silent.You can faintly here a very very light clicking, but in my attic, it's all but forgotten.I just leave it plugged in up there all the time, and now I can get some needed extra sleep on weekends. The unit itself is small.For some reason, I had gotten the idea that it was much larger in the pictures here, but that's likely because there's nothing to reference it's scale to. It easily fits behind ductwork in your attic or basement.It has a reasonably long AC power cord too, so you'll likely not need an extension cord.

The RODAR II Ultrasonic Pest Repeller is the super powerful professsional ultrasonic pest repeller based on more than twenty years of engineering and field testing. Its super tansducer blasts out ultrasound (at 23 to 55 kHz) with up to 60 and more times the power of other ultrasonic devices (that make preposterous claims).

Squirrel Repellent Quart Review

I find that a given repellent will work in varying degrees for different populations of the same animal.The gray squirrels here in my yard in semi-rural Ohio are definitely not fond of this product and most of the year it keeps them off my woodpecker feeders. However this may not be the case for Georgia gray squirrels, other species, or even those in the next county!(Must reapply often, when seed bar or suet gets nibbled down.)

Havahart 5265 Spray Away Motion-Activated Water Repellent Review

Havahart 5265 Spray Away Motion-Activated Water Repellent
Average Reviews:

I have three motion detecting sprinklers, two made by Contech (ScareCrow) and one by Havahart. Both of them are excellent for repelling deer (two years of experience with high deer pressure) but the Contech ScareCrow is more dependable. Although the Scarecrow sprinkler is more expensive, it is worth the price. The Havahart does not come with a guarantee other than a 30 day return policy whereas the Contech ScareCrow sprinkler has a two year warranty and they stand behind it. I had one fail after 22 months of use and they replaced it promptly. Also the motion detecting range, sensitivity, and adjustment is more stable and dependable in the Contech ScareCrow. The only time I've not had the ScareCrow work was during a period of very high humidity during some rainy weather when it failed to go off during a period of less than a day. On the other hand the Havahart motion sprinker is much more erratic in its performance and sometimes fails to work for brief periods.

Contech Electronics CRO101 Scarecrow Motion-Activated Sprinkler Review

Contech Electronics CRO101 Scarecrow Motion-Activated Sprinkler
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
A couple thoughts on this very useful product which I feel slightly guilty about downgrading to four stars:

First, the thing works perfectly, at least for me. Before the Scarecrow, my neighbor's (big) dog left a (big) present on my lawn, every night. Since the Scarecow, never, not once.

Well, okay, once, but that leads to comment two:

The trouble is that the Scarecrow cannot distinguish between me, enjoying my garden on a fine Summer's day, and the dog, doing his thing in the middle of the night. This means that I need to be very careful to set up access to the Scarecrow from behind, so I can turn it off and not get soaked every time I walk across the lawn. Once, I forgot to turn it back on, and, sure enough, that night the dog had done its thing.

Of course this is both a critique and a compliment: the Scarecrow really works. It's just not entirely convenient. Still, I wouldn't be without it and Amazon has it for a great price and free shipping. Can't beat that.

Product Description:
The Contech Electronics Scarecrow Motion-Activated Sprinkler presents an innovative, humane way to keep pets and wildlife from disturbing your yard and garden without the use of complicated traps or potentially hazardous chemicals. The sprinkler combines a surprise spray of water with unexpected motion and noise to create a safe, effective deterrent to unwanted visitors, helping keep your garden looking its best.
The Contech Electronics Scarecrow Motion-Activated Sprinkler:

    Uses a startling burst of water to deter animals
    Teaches pets and wildlife to avoid your yard and garden
    Is safe, humane, and environmentally-friendly





One Scarecrow can cover up to 1000 sq.ft. View larger.

The Scarecrow protects your garden without using any hazardous chemicals. View larger. Safe, Humane Deterrent Helps Protect Your Garden
A huge amount of time and energy goes into keeping your yard and garden looking great, so it's only natural that you want to protect them from damage caused by hungry wildlife or local dogs and cats. But there are lots of reasons to avoid chemical deterrents, traps, and hazardous electric fences.
Whether you're a dedicated organic vegetable gardener or a parent looking out for the health of children and pets that play in your yard, you'll appreciate the simple, innovative, and effective water-based concept behind the Scarecrow Motion-Activated Sprinkler. It's also a great choice for neighborhoods where fences are prohibited and for people who consider wire fences and other visual barriers unappealing.
When the ScareCrow detects an animal it instantly releases a short but startling burst of water. The sudden spray of water and the movement and noise of the sprinkler scares animals away. Animals associate this negative experience with the area and avoid your yard in the future.
Versatile and Broad-Reaching for Maximum Effectiveness
The Scarecrow is versatile enough to keep deer, rabbits, and other foragers from snacking on plants and bulbs, to prevent dogs from digging up newly seeded lawns, to keep the cat from using your garden as a litter box, and to scare predators like herons and raccoons away from your fish pond.
The ScareCrow's motion detector is powerful enough to guard an area up to 1000 square feet of coverage with a single sprinkler. For added coverage, Scarecrow sprinklers can be linked in series to guard larger spaces.
Efficient Design and Easy to Set Up
Setting the Scarecrow up is fast and easy, and doesn't require any special tools. Simply install a standard 9-volt battery, connect the sprinkler to your hose, push the 17-inch stake into ground to secure the unit, and set the adjustable sprinkler arc to cover the area you want protected.
What's in the Box

Keep cats from using your garden as a litter box or prevent raccoons and herons from snacking in your fish pond.

The product did not work, the squirrels continued to haul off my fruit from the pear tree with no regard to the product being placed on the tree. In fact, after all the pears were hauled off by the squirrels they continued to play in my back yard with little regard for the four (4) pouches situated in the yard. I think I needed the predator not his urine.
