Havahart 5277 Critter Ridder Motion-Activated Animal Repellent & Sprinkler, 4 Pack

This helped keep the squirrels out of my garden all summer. It also sprayed me a few times. It's very effective.The coverage range is a lot bigger than I expected. It is kind of loud but I think that helps to keep the critters out. It held up all summer.

Buy this. You will thank yourself later. Easy assembly. Needs 2 AA batteries. You can set the distance the water shoots out and how far left and right the sprinkler head shoots the water. You can also set the sensitivity. I am using it to keep birds off my lawn and it works. Buy it.

Yeah look at the picture it really says it all!! This is only good if you want to provide a drinking fountain for raccoons! Hey Havaheart!!! So far the score is Raccoon's one (1) Haveahart Zero (0) Yeah Havehart the Racoons are making a fool out of your brand and your product!! The sensor is so weak and has such a narrow field to it they just walked around the piece of junk grabbed it by the head held it and drank from it while it was running. The Racoons turned this fraudulently advertised piece of junk into a toy and their own private water dispenser. This is the major flaw other accompanying flaws are as follows: Junk and I do mean cheap plastic junk construction. Upon assembly leaks were present had to tighten down further. After it worked for a while it started leaking again requiring more tightening. Not a big deal just figured I’d go ahead and use some Teflon tape to better secure the fittings. I never got around to putting the Teflon tape on though, because the sprinkler head portion of it flew off into the air and into the yard. So I went ahead and decrease the pressure to the hose thinking that might be the issue after snapping it back on. Next the triggering / valve sprinkling portion malfunctioned and continued running after it was triggered. Turned it off then back on @3:00 AM. Not Acceptable!!! Lastly, while activated with new batteries & water running the raccoons, turned this supposed deterrent into a private drinking fountain, please see the picture. You can’t stage a photo like this ,It really says it all. One star folks I would give you zero if it was at all possible, this is being returned. I do not advise anybody waste your time or money on this shoddy and useless, seriously flawed garbage. Amazon please pull this garbage, it is a waste of everyone’s time and money.

I got this sprinkler to stop cats from using my yard as a litter box, and it worked. No more cat poop where the sprinkler is set up. You just have to aim it right so it catches movement. I ended up buying a second one because it did the job. It also works fine as a regular sprinkler. The only downside is the batteries since it goes through AA batteries fast. I usually have to change them every week or two. Still, it’s worth it if you’re trying to keep animals out.

I bought this to first keep my dogs out of the area I just planted grass in and later to keep animals out of our garden. I just got it yesterday, so this review is basically my first impression. It seems to work fairly well. At first it was cycling continuously. I found two possible reasons for this. I had the sensitivity set to the highest setting so I turned it down. Even so it continued to cycle. Then I noticed that the item would turn, and even the slightest motion of the sprinkler itself would trigger it. Having only one "stake" to go into the ground I placed spare tent pegs on either side of the hose to keep it from turning. After that AND keeping the sensitivity setting at 3 or lower (max is 4) it worked fine. Even with the stakes in place if the sensitivity was set to 4 it would cycle continuously. Possibly because it is then sensing movement from the tree about 54 feet away. Aside from the sprinkler turning, the "spray coverage limiter" also moves during use. This allows the sprinkler to spray in an undesired location. It works good for scaring the dogs out of the area until it turns out of the desired area. To fix this I will probably put a zip tie or something on the guard to squeeze it tighter. As for using it as a sprinkler (which I haven't attempted yet) I only see 3 possible coverage patterns; about 75, 270 or 360 degrees. This limits the places I can put it. I would typically set it at 180 degrees. Since I bought this mainly to scare animals I am happy with it (after a few additional simple modifications).

Lol this thing works great. The videos are even better. I live in Florida and there are feral cats everywhere, it good and bad, no rodents but cats lol. Not a cat fan but I don't want to hurt them. This thing scares the crap out of them. We have a big property and they found an area to make for their communal toilet, not anymore lol. I will get a couple more to use in places I'd like them to keep out of as well. I use rechargeable batteries a lot so no worries about going through batteries.

We got a few chickens. All was going well until they found our garden. Not even a vegetable garden. Apparently chickens love hydrangeas, like really love them. We went online to our chicken groups to find out what to do, apparently the only option was to fence the chickens in. I didn't like that option. I was about to find out if my kids liked the chickens more than my wife liked the flowers. I found this and we got it. Worked like an absolute charm. The chickens were very upset, but I will say they were fast leaners. Surprisingly, they only tried for a few days and haven't been back. The sprinkler is still there, but isn't even on anymore because they haven't been back. It also isn't on because everytime we had company over, they would get sprayed. I have a camera on that side of the house, I should actually take those videos and make my own YouTube channel and retire....

Really good and works very well. but don't use it for small areas. on the lowest configuration, the small splashes can reach about 4m, and for me it's hitting a glass door which is bad for me, but the product itself is amazing

El producto es bueno y funcional, fácil de armar, seria estupendo si la batería fuese solar. Es necesaria una buena presión en la línea de abastecimiento para que funcione plenamente.

Installed multiples around the compound and she has yet to breach the perimeter without getting a dose! Highly recommend. As a bonus feature it also keeps unwanted critters away.

Unfortunately, there are no temperature range defined in data sheet. We had snow and next morning the pipe burst when water wanted to spray when the sensor was activated by movement. This is hard to believe as this is a Canadian product where snow is the order of the day during winter season. Extremely disappointed as this product lasted not even 3 months.
