Loading... Please wait...Exclusive to Birds Off, The Sonic Scarecrow or Hyrdo Blaster as it is sometimes known, is a motion activated sprinkler that sprays a stream of water each time motion is sensed. Birds and animals ( Possums, Cats, Dogs, deer , Roos, wild life ) will associate being sprayed with the area, and will avoid it in the future ( gives us Humans a bit of a scare as well !! ) . The combination of the spray, along with the movement of the head, and the ticking sound of the sprinkler, will all work together to deter birds from the area. The scarecrow is ideal for keeping pest birds and animals off the dock, jetty, pontoons, gardens, yards and pond areas. This product is a safe, humane, and effective way to deter pests.

Hi Guys, we'd just like to tell you that the Scare Crow motion activated water spray was successful from day one.
We have a family of five Bush Turkeys who excavated our backyard daily. They are not easy to scare and you have to almost grab them to physically scare them off.
However the Scare Crow (we call it the Water Sniper) is totally effective in its range.
Nightime blasts suggest it's having a shot at the neighbourhood cats too, so it is in fact protecting our wildlife.
Thank you !

It was alot of fun to set up, got wet a few times. The sensor picks up pretty well, mostly dogs and cats and bigger birds like Ducks but they need to be within 5 to 7 meters of the unit. Its good how you can turn it on or off and the sensor up or down. The range and pitch of water can also be adjusted. Great little package.
