I bought two of these 2 years ago. One ceased working and the other still works but doesn't deter the deer one bit. I leave it out in the yard as a kind of quasi-security devise as it will flash when someone is in the area. During windy days, all it does is flash. It's just cheap Chinese junk.

Our "gadget" is a very lifelike, scary, scarecrow. Complete with swinging arms that make sounds and flashing solar lights pointed at him. No deer in the garden in 34 years.

Don’t waste money only thing it does it shine lite so deer can see better

That thing does not work in Connecticut, I spotted on camera deers eating roses right behind the screamy flashy thing...

*Only a 3.0 out of 5 on Amazon reviews with a rating of 1 being the most often given.* 👎 Apparently the battery packs are a weak point, as well as the motion sensor. Other issues as well. Would really like to find a long term solution.

This is not right. It works, if it a long lasting deterrent. I'm reminded of seeing a pigeon on top of a plastic owl.

About a month is the only time frame then you have to swap to something else .. swapping things out every 30 days for 3 months works well then just start over again

Tried one they don't work, if deer are hungry they will not pay any attention to these things

I bought some like that didn’t work at all

It doesn't work folks I tried it 2 years!

Does not work. The deer laughed at it!

I'd love to see the long term results. Thanks

They don’t work , I have two and the deer walk right up to them and don’t even flinch

They don't work.

I would be curious to see how many nights in a row it would take before the deer get used to these things.

I've had mine for about 6 months now, and they worked great at first, but the deer got accustom to them and are now destrying my plants. I saw another video and I'm going to try the soap sock trick and double my efforts.

Doesn't work

They DONT WORK

This has been the “Week of Gadgets That Don’t Work”! As far as Humans hearing the high squeal, my daughter can clearly hear it!! She was even in the garage and could hear it. We couldn’t. ARGGHHH!

For ornamental plants, Carolina Reaper powder, dish soap, and water work well. Mix it up and spray it on. Wear a mask, gloves, and goggles to protect yourself. Dripped some on my hand and it turned red. But, my tulips have been untouched since the first bite was spit out. Deer and rabbits are leaving them alone.

The device should play some soft jazzy music and have a little fake candle light up for that "romantic touch" when the deer eat. 😅

I never found that the these thins worked. The dear sit next to them, eat the plants around them...what setting did he use? I tried all.

Before I would recommend them, I would test them for 3 or 4 weeks to see if the deer become accustomed to them and they stop working. Ultrasonic deer whistles for vehicles that came out almost 35 years ago worked for a while until the deer became accustomed to them. Idea was they were supposed to stop deer off the road, when a vehicle with the whistles was approaching. I know several folk who swore by them at first, only to later hit deer while using the whistles. Would be wonderful for everyone in deer country if they work. I don't think a one night test is much of a serious trial.

Will give it a try,your farm techniques are awesome

Does not work!!!

This video could have been 2 minutes or less. Very disrespectful of peoples's time.

Doesn’t work

Have you considered that, as with all deterrents, the deer will become acclimated over time?

Did it keep on working or did the deer get used to the alarms?

So the date stamp when you were feeding with no alarm them was 4/6/18 and 4/7/18. But the date stamp went away when you added the alarm. Why???

I have a friend that has used them. The deer stayed away less than a week. He used 3 in less than a 1 acre lot. The deer knocked 2 of them over. Not recommended.

Honestly I couldn't hear anything except you talking.

When deer get in my garden, I put them in my freezer!!! LOL! Woooo!

Oh my. I just started listening to to your video and when you asked ,"Can you hear this sound,? I couldn't hear a thing but my 4 dogs went nuts. Now I'm back to the video

Have them all around my house. Working good

Do a longer term review. I wonder if they do get use to the sound and lights.

So after 4 years does the unit even still work? Have you had to install new rechargeable battery? If it does is it still repelling the deer?

I went out and spent a lot of money buying several of this after watching this video. They worked about 3 maybe 4 days. After that the deer became used to them and were not frightened any more. Deer know how to adjust. I wasted a lot of money that I really shouldn't have on these

Josh. Did you observe any change in the reaction of the deer after a few nights getting used to the noise?

Josh take 30 pound monoafilament fishing line it about 4 foot high all around the areas you want to protect deer will not jump over anything they cannot see Cheap easy solution to deer problem Yes that device works but what is the cost compared to a 100 yard or more of mono.

The motion detector water sprayer works when nothing else will. Below state game lands here and tried everything but this. The sprayer needs to be moved around from time to time, a two minute job, and you will forget it’s there and get wet sometimes. We always say we are going to put it on a timer, but never have. We have two. Bad part is when freezing weather comes you are done! It keeps the deer from my pond plants in the summer. Used for about 15 years, I think.

It's been my experience that the only thing to keep deer out of a garden is an electric fence. I take mine down every year. It is a pain but with a large garden (1acre) you cannot risk loosing all the time and effort you have put into that garden.

I can take care of those deer come about November but I won't use a hot fence I will use a thing called a rifle 😁

Nearly three years down the line, what are your thoughts on this device now ? Did they get used to it ?

No

I have used the Orbit 62100 Yard Enforcer Motion-Activated Sprinkler with Day & Night Detection for the past year. It has been my most successful item to deter critter.

Last year, I tried something to keep deer out of my suburban back yard garden and it worked. It’s Milorganite organic fertilizer. I discovered I had to reapply it once a month during the growing season, but at around $12 a bag that lasts one or two months, the price wasn’t too bad.

The State of Maine allows farmers to put the deer and any large pests in the freezer if they are doing crop damage or hurting livestock. I had a farmer who had asked me if I was a hunter and asked if I was tagged for moose cause they were doing property and crop damage. Unfortunately I didn't that year.

Why did it look as it was snowing on nighttime video with deer but no snow during day?

Be interesting to see if they get used to it and start ignoring it.

It would have been way more convincing that they work but you just expecting people to take your word for it doesn't prove anything

Why aren't your German Shepherds scaring the deer away? A recording of a fierce dog, triggered by the motion sensors, seems preferable to that high-pitched sound, whose effects on our surroundings (including us) are unknown, but probably damaging. A few barks at night might disturb us a bit, though.

I was honestly surprised they worked as well... Will be interested to see how they do for you over time... After all, deer can get used to feeding next to an interstate... Please keep us informed if they keep / lose their effectiveness over time... Great vLog, thanks for sharing !

My backyard is fenced in,they still jumped the fence ate my fruit trees,bean,peppers,cucumbers,etc.

Not for everyone but... put a single wire electric fence around your garden... put peanut butter on the wire then 1 week later.. turn on the electric fence.. they won't forget it.

the way that i see it, you have to use several methods to get rid of deer. i invested a lot of money on junk to do this. i did find something that does work for me, and it's called the "ORBIT". it has a motion sensor and has night vision as well. the only problem that i had was that it was too damn good when it came to sensing things, like cars and people. i had to place them in a certain way so as to not disturb my neighbors by getting them wet, lol. it's a sprinkler that shoots out a strong spray, makes clicking noises while it moves from side to side wetting and surprising the deer. i wish i had the video footage of one of them approaching my open fence, thinking it was cool to get in the garden without knowing that the Orbit was about 10ft from it. when the Orbit detected the deer (this was at night), the Orbit went off and scared the hell out of the deer and it actually took down part of the fence in its haste to get away. the deer always show up, but the Orbit keeps them away. if anyone is interested, they are sold on Amazon.

Go hide those on your neighbors tree stand during deer season😉

Don't work. Bought 2 for my garden, they are cheaply made not weatherproof, rain gets in and gets into electronics and quits working first month. They wouldn't give me a full refund. Deer laugh at this in my neighborhood. The only thing that worked and I tried many things is an electric fence. Don't let these people rip you off like they did me

Stop talking. Please. Just show results.

Doesn't work..for my garden fencing does..they get used to it and don't care..

First thing first that deer that was doing all the fighting could be the mother to the younger ones but she is definitely the dominant one. I think the deer will eventually get used to the lights and sound over time. As for a fence a deer can jump at least 8’ at a stand still, there are several ways to deter a deer but sooner or later they get used to it, they are just too smart and resourceful I believe to completely stop them.

Love it!! I fell behind but all caught up on ur vids now

Everytime you turned it on my dogs freaked ou

if u want something cheap to keep deer from eating your trees & garden hung up ivory soap around them. just drill a hole in the soap & hung it with a wire or string. do it all the time & the deere don't eat anything out of the garden.

I’ll try one. Trying not to use my Smith n Wesson 500 Mag 🤣🤣🤣🤣

This has a number of settings for different critters. Since they don't include deer in the instructions please let me know which setting you used.

What setting did you end up using? I just bought one and have it on the "sweep" and flash mode. I'm keeping my fishing line with bells barrier up. It works but occasionally a bold deer breaks through. I've learned with pests that multi - layer defenses are needed, to get it in their head to make them avoid an area. I live in a large wooded lot suburban area where the deer are pets and are not afraid of humans at all. I can't kill them, but I've actually walked up on them and shot them with low power pellet rifles before, AND THEY STILL COME BACK.

Hi thanks for the video, we have pigeons under our balcony , there is a free space between the floor of the balcony and the ceiling of the dpwnstairs neighbours roof, they sneak into that gap, very difficult to deal with them. Do you think putting this device on the floor of our balcony will help please? The birds will not see the device, it will be qbpve them, so only the sound will be there, is this enough you think? We are very desperate , please any advice will help

Nice review 👽 but won’t keep us out. Boo !

Thanks for the vid Josh. Are these still working?

The true test will be once the deer get use to the sound, will it work then?

I couldn't hear a thing😳

Hey! Has this product held up long term? Really enjoying your videos, thanks!

Is your dog a kelpie?

Nice... I'm glad those things worked for you... Keep us updated on how long they last... PLEASE WHOOOOOH

Thanks for your channel! By the way, what kind (wireless?) of microphone do you use?

Does it work with Rats? Help I'm desperate.

Wow, I heard it come through my speakers when you had it on.

Does this work on rats, squirrels, rabbits too? (they eat my Japanese maple trees)

Great information 🇺🇸🚜. Woooooo!!🇺🇸🇺🇸

Thank god I don’t have deer but crazy herds of bunnies .. think I will go with bunny proof fencing

When I first had goats I free ranged them. I had to fence my back porch as they were on it waiting for us to come out.

Wonder if they get use to it will it be ad effective

If they work, maybe they should put them along highways.

Does it effect horses or dogs if it's not pointed at them?

Oh God, I married a deer! My wife could hear it. lol I couldn't

Why is there no date/time and temperature on the videos when the Deere get scared off. It would have been extra proof. Maybe already commented.

When dealing with critters beware of easy success, Josh ! I suspect , when nothing ugly happens , the deer will learn to ignore them. One thing going for it is the high-frequency sound . Deer don't like to have their ears assaulted .

Sounds like come deer season you need to thin the herd.

I'm on the hunt for something to keep the deer out of a hard-to-fence garden area. They've all but decimated my vegetables this summer. I'm wondering if something like this is okay to use with dogs. My dogs are in the yard with me at all times and out on the porch, which is nearby. Does this affect them?

Will this drive my goats crazy too?

A 30-06?

Cool video.Can you help with noisy frogs PLEASE? Pile of shit left from dear, noisy frogs, what a mess! Help me with them wild animals please.

Now back to the video

Did not work for us!

We'll have to give that a try for the bee fence - did you bring your dogs near it? Curious if they reacted to it.

It’s been 2 years since the release of this VLOG. Are you still using this system? How is it holding up?

I wonder if this would keep neighborhood dog owners from peeing on the yard

Got my Stoney Ridge T-shirt today, I love it Thanks Josh!
