Contech Electronics Scarecrow Motion-Activated Sprinkler #CRO101

I am having a Heron issue with eating my KOI. I purchased the following:
(1) Two Contech Electronics Scarecrow Motion-Activated Sprinkler #CRO101
(2) One Owl with a rotating head
(3) One Great Blue Heron Decoy

Save your money and just build yourself a net to put over your KOI pond.

I know this review is asking about the Contech Electronics Scarecrow Motion-Activated Sprinkler #CRO101 so here it is.

I purchased two scarecrow's and it cost me $160.00 which included shipping and don't forget handling charges. They work really well, every time I cut the grass, or go to the mailbox I get sprayed.... but as far as the heron, it does not scare the Heron at all. I have seen the Heron fly on the fence, wait for the sprinkler to go off, then fly down get a Koi and fly off. While the Heron flew off, then the sprinkler came on again.

I hope you listen to this review and don't waste your money!!!

They do make cute yard ornaments!!

I bought this product because the neighborhood cats were using my uncle's herb garden as a toilet. He has us over for dinner several times per week. I didn't want to run the risk of hurting any animals, but I also didn't want "contaminated" herbs in my salad! So far, the motion-activated scarecrow has been great! The cats only need one encounter with the scarecrow to learn their lesson. If you have a similar problem, this product is a great solution. Highly recommended.

I wish I had thought to take a picture of the damage to our back lawn from the bathroom habits of our two French Bulldogs...We tried several things ,,nothing worked,,,
One dog loves water, the other dog hates water, so we weren't sure if the Scarecrow would work,,,,,It was like magic,,,,,we reseeded the dead spots. the Srarecrow not only kept the dogs off, but kept the seeds wet... the new grass is growing great, even in this heat,,,,,,

love my scarecrows

It really seems to be working well. No plant damage since we started using it except for a couple of times I forgot it was on. It quickly reminded me when I stepped in front of it.

The scarecrow was delivered to my house within 5 days of purchase. It was well packaged and in excellent condition.
It works! I was on vacation for a week, and my flower garden was safe. I came home to blooming flowers. Prior to using the scarecrow, deer were eating the buds off of many of my perennials.
The sensitivity setting works well. Easy set-up.
