Cat Repeller Battery Powered Set of 2

Not sure if it's because of these two or what. But ever since I put them on the driveway no more nasty surprises in the morning. It's been more than a month. If I was to go by the reviews which I usually do, I would probably still be picking up cat delights. Only reason I bought was the money back guarantee which I didn't need so far.

Despite all the positive reviews I knew these ultrasonic gadgets wouldn’t work so kept the packaging as I’d be sending them back under the 45 days money back guarantee. Also, you get what you pay for and at £24.99 for two they were clearly going to be pretty bad especially when the similar RSPB approved Catwatch Ultrasonic gadgets are four times the price. Worth a go though as all other efforts to stop cats pooping under our Cedar Tree had failed and the last straw was a Tom who decided he needed to mark our Courgette plants on his garden patrols. All poop under the Cedar cleared away and grass around the Courgettes mown short I installed the PestBye units, did a walk test in front of them to ensure they covered the main cat entry routes and set the Sens. to one from max and the Freq. to the 5th dot (as per picture)……then waited. A couple of days later I watched Tom wondering towards our Courgettes but oddly he was approaching very cautiously then paused, turned around and pottered off in a different direction. A coincidence or a result? Next up was cat on route to Cedar pooping grounds, again approaching very cautiously then quietly skirting around the PestBye sensor zone and disappearing through the hedge. Hmm, maybe these gadgets do do something. Its now almost three weeks since I put the PestBye gadgets out and to my astonishment and delight our Courgettes appear to have been avoided and there are no poops under our Cedar Tree which has long been a favourite and busy spot for our local cats. Also, the cats don’t seem to be in any way distressed by the units which is important too, they just quietly avoid the areas, and the birds and other wildlife that used to visit our garden still seem to visit as usual so no other detrimental side effects which is great. I’m sort of expecting the cats to get used to the gadgets so I’m going to move them every couple of weeks just to mix things up a little. Now the dilemma. My neighbour mentioned that cats have started pooping in her flower beds. Do I tell her about the PestBye gadgets I’ve installed hence a possible/probable reason why they’re now using her flower beds? If she buys some will the cats then find a new pooping spot in my garden. Hmm, will keep a low profile for now. ONE MONTH LATER - Update. Hmm, two cat poops under the tree. A huge improvement for sure but are the cats getting used to the PestBye? I've moved the unit to a new position so lets see if that resolves the issue. Even though I can hear it working and see the blue sensor light coming on, I think I'll stick some new batteries in as well. Time will tell. EIGHT MONTHS LATER After an excellent start, eight months on the cats have become totally used to the PestBye and happily walk right in front of the units and relieve themselves. Moving the units around, changing the settings a bit and making sure batteries were always fresh extended the effectiveness for a while longer but I've now exhausted all permutations and PestBye now has zero effect as a cat deterrent. A good short term solution though.

If your having issues with cats, these are what you want, since installing around my pond I no longer has pesky cats coming into my garden

AWFUL OMG! :( JUST AWFUL GRRR! It's just good for shining a lovely blue light!! Which stays constantly on so no surprise or "shock" to them clever bully cats! Stupid. I had it on high then lowered it for it to flash every three seconds regardless. Don't make no sense. Cats loved it so much so that they begun to poo right in front of it. They were shocked day one and got brave and started pooing in the middle of my freshly lawned garden with golden gravel which I spent a fortune on :( My garden is 7.5 meter width. I originally bought the garden selections GFA805 solar one and had it bang in the middle. Perfect. Then I don't know what happened. REVENGE A FEW WEEKS LATER AS THE CATS FIGURED OUT HOW TO DODGE IT! POO EVERYWHERE!! LEFT RIGHT AND MIDDLE whereas at 1st they were pooing in the far right. My theory was the garden selections GFA805 was doing a good job of keeping them off the left and middle as the far corner was their only target leaving about half a meter of coverage. Soooo I bought another one and placed it in the far right corner... Then from then it went pearshaped. Inadequate not working! Cats now pooing in the centre!! Noooo! And they love the smell of their own s***! GREAT! NOW I GET NERVOUS. SENT BACK AFTER TWO WEEKS OF PROBLEMS GETTING WORSER THAN WORSE. CATS WERE BULLYING ME! :( So I boughf thee expensive sonic one. Worst of them all!! Cats spreading to left and middle and right. They were getting their own back wth!! Strangely enough leaves were always left covering their poo after! What kind of cat is this!? Now I'm scared LOL! My son 13 said "mum cats are not that clever" as I swearrrr the cat was covering it's poo with leaves only in that far right corner, the original main target. The leaves wouldn't go nowhere else and I was scooping up every morning, so its not like it was sticky...These cats are only coming at night so I never see them!! By 7- 8am their gifts await you. Daytime/evening, coast is clear! Smh. These cats are bad man! Sooo I sent back sonic then came these and you know how I feel about these by my initial intro of writing my review. 1 week in and enough is enough, being collected tomorrow morning. By the time you read this, these would of been collected and in the meantime I've ordered pepperdust x2 bottles to come tomorrow and in the meantime is growing my scaredy cat plants inside for next month and we'll see who wins in the end. They want a fight bring it!! Omg out of all three cat deterrents the garden selections GFA805 is the best so I bought another as the other one i bought but sent back, must of just been a dodgy one, and it's now kept the cats away from the left since I've moved it from the middle. That one is bettter as its off but come close, and the lights shine bright white and make a sound. So they now stick to the right, the original spot and now the middle cos they like the smell of their own s***! :( Its been said to move them round by other reviewers but for me thats what made matters worse and antagonised the cats more to poo more omg! People are most likely moving them round cos of the issue I had...not to "confuse the cats" eye roll. However before I go..They all kept the foxes and walking dogs to keep on walking lol weird. These cats are fearless!! Anywho pepper dust and removing the half dead un wanted leafy bush which might be affecting the performance of the deterrants are getting chopped down. I'm very stubborn so they've met their match! I'll keep you posted! Hope this review was useful lol :)

After a couple weeks of having two of these devices in the garden, there seems to be somewhat less cat activity now, although there are a number of things to be aware of with these devices. First of all, it should be noted that these devices are more designed to annoy cats rather than scare them. The high-pitched frequencies are in the range that is uncomfortable for them to be around for too long, but don’t expect them to scamper away the moment they hear it and don’t expect it to keep cats away altogether. Moving them around the garden helps, to stop them getting used to them. You will probably need a second or third deterrent in place too — spraying the cats with the hosepipe seems more effective overall, although obviously policing the garden at all times of the day is difficult. Second of all, if you’re under the age of 35 or have particularly good hearing, you stand a pretty good chance of being able to hear the ultrasonic squeal, even though it is marketed as inaudible to humans. It’s an incredibly annoying sound, particularly for young people, so bear this in mind if you like wandering around your garden or if you have kids. I have to turn the devices around every time I cut the grass or do any gardening, they are that annoying. On the plus side, the sound doesn’t penetrate into the house unless the windows or doors are open. The device has a sensitivity dial and a frequency dial. There’s no documentation that comes with the device whatsoever as to which frequencies are effective for which animals, although we found that around settings 3 to 5 seems to work for cats. If you have more than one of these devices, setting them to ever-so-slightly different frequencies from one another will maybe yield better results. As for the sensitivity, the device is incredibly sensitive. Anything that is warm and moves will set it off, including but not limited to animals, humans, leaves blowing in the wind, water sprinklers, you name it. Since the device uses a PIR for detecting motion, it’s also triggered pretty much constantly if it is directly in the sun. This device needs to be located in the shade or it will go off when the sun shines on it, which will obviously run the battery down much faster. Despite these things, it appears to have moderately improved things, but be sure that your expectations are not too high. This is a flawed device in many ways but seems to have helped somewhat.

I bought these for my mum's front garden as after finally getting the flowerbed slated I realised I had essentially created a giant litter box for every outdoor cat on her road - in the first week after that job was completed there were no fewer than 10 poops in one small bed! One month on, and (touch wood) there have been no further parcels deposited in my mum's garden! The security camera on my mum's door has actually picked up the few cats who still walk through, and it's very interesting to see how they have reacted to this being there. It clearly makes a noise they can hear as they noticeably veer away from it as they walk past. So far, so good!

I bought these to deter neighbouring cats from scaring the birds in my aviary. After a couple of weeks use, I can definitely say that the cats visit far less often, and don't stick around long when they do. One particular cat has walked/sat right in front of them, but I still say THEY WORK and are worth at least 4 stars. I'll explain... I understand the bad reviews - if you're buying these, then you have a problem you want to eradicate, but remember what they actually do: They emit a loud, annoying, uncomfortable noise. This does not cause animals pain, of course not!, so if they can tolerate it, they will stay. However if you have it set to the frequency that the animal finds sufficiently loud, annoying and uncomfortable enough to leave, then they will leave. This might take some trial and error. Other variables include: - Just like people, some animals' hearing is better than others / some animals are more nervous than others (my cat disappeared from the room whilst I was fitting the batteries and the frequency was only set to 1). - The reach is impressive, but the further away the animal is, the quieter the noise will be - positioning additional units at entry points may help. - If the animal stops moving, the noise stops until they move again. It might take some time for them to catch on that being in this area is just not worth the awful racket. In my case, getting the positioning right took a few days and I still don't think I've found the perfect frequency to completely deter the cat I most want to, but nevertheless I have noticed a big difference. Other pros: - Turning the sensitivity right down (until it won't go any further) pretty much turns it 'off'. - Can be mounted to a fence/wall/tree. - Waterproof, frost proof. - AA batteries can be picked up cheaply (and are certainly more reliable than solar power oop ere in Yorksher). - The blue light upon activation lets you know it's working even if you cannot hear it yourself. - Doesn't seem to bother birds at all - this was a big concern for me. I also found a hedgehog shuffling in front of it one evening (although that's not proof they are not at all deterred by them, as above) - Great value. Cons: - The suggested frequencies for deterring different species are NOT included - refer back to the listing and write them down on the leaflet for future reference. - When I mounted this on a tree (one cat enters my garden from my garage roof), branches blowing in the wind set it off, so I had to move it to avoid draining the batteries. - As some other reviewers found, the battery plate screws did not go all the way, despite the plate being completely flush with the unit, so may rust in time. - May upset dogs/children very close by. Possible cons: - The screws for the stake are very fiddly (but once it's on, it's on). - Battery life as yet unknown. I have the sensitivity set quite high so I'm expecting it to be a little poor. In summary, these do exactly what they say they do, but be aware they aren't 'plug & play', you need to set them up just right to get the best results. If you have a large area to cover or REALLY want to make an area unattractive to a problem animal, buy a bunch of them and create a total no-go zone! Get the frequency right and it will work.

We have had these in for months now, and only just had to change the batteries. We set up one along the side alley at the end opposite the gate for cats that jump over the gate and walk up the path to the garden. They just stick into the earth. The other one went halfway up the garden to cover a wider area opposite the bushes where our bird feeders hand on the tall bushes. During the day we made black bin liner covers - we covered amazon envelopes (padded) so that we life save the 4 x aa batteries as the cats really only came in between 10pm and 6am. This has proved excellent method. We have not had any of the 6 or 7 cats that haunted and poo in our garden for months now. So long as you place them in an area where the sonic angle covers approaches to vulnerable areas. These do not bother the birds and we cannot hear them obviously. The UK is plagued by cats killing garden birds and we are so grateful for this invention. Totally recommend 100%. They really really work. Be patient at first as the cats take about 1-2 weeks to get totally phased out by these. Unbelievably good.

En el vecindario hay muchos gatos. No tengo perro para auyentar a los gatos y venían a mi jardín a hacer sus necesidades, cada día tenía uno o varios regalitos. Desde que he puesto estos repelentes, los gatos continúan viniendo, pero ya no defecan en el jardín. Ahora tengo un regalito cada 15 días aproximadadmente. La situación ha mejorado mucho! Aconsejo comprarlo. Funciona!!!

Die Katzenvertreiber (https://smile.amazon.de/dp/B00FXSU2WK/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_27 2 x PestBye Katzenvertreiber, Batteriebetrieben - Wetterfest - Ultraschall Katzen Vertreiber / Katzenschreck )wurden zur "Absicherung" des neben dem Ferienhaus liegenden Rasens erworben, die scheinbar von allen Katzen der Nachbarschaft zur Toilettenwiese erklärt wurde (...um unseren Hund zu ärgern, der dort nicht hinkommt ???). Die Haufen konnten jedenfalls nicht von einer Katze allein stammen :-). Die beiden Geräte wurden in ca. 20 cm Höhe einmal zur Länge der Wiese hin ausgerichtet am Sichtschutzzaun verschraubt, das zweite dann quer zur Wiese an einem Baum in gleicher Höhe um ein Ultraschall-Kreuzfeuer zu erreichen. Beide Regler wurden zunächst auf voll aufgedreht, die Empfindlichkeit des Auslösesensors dann allerdings auf ca. halb zurückgedreht (durch die verbaute LED konnte man erkennen, das auch Fußgänger auf dem mehr als 10 m entfernten Bürgersteig den längs ausgerichteten Sensor auslösten, was dann wohl auf die Batterie gehen würde). Die Einstellung der Frequenz wurde zuvor zu Hause kurz an freiwilligen Probanten (zum Haushalt gehörende Katzen) getestet, die auf alle Frequenzen regierten und das Zimmer mieden solange die Geräte liefen (den Hund hat es übrigens gar nicht gestört). Soviel zum Versuchsaufbau, nun zu den Ergebnissen: Wo vorher etliche Haufen pro Woche hinterlassen wurden, findet sich nunmehr gar nichts mehr. Seit 2-einhalb Monaten wird der Rasen von den Nachbarskatzen und Streunern gemieden, kein einziger Haufen mehr seit dem. Vögel picken weiterhin unbeeindruckt auf dem Rasen nach Insekten und Würmern, es ist noch kein auf dem Bürgersteig vorbeikommender Hund seinen Frau- und Herrchen panisch entwischt. Erste Batterien halten immer noch. Ziel erreicht, volle 5 Sterne ! Update Anfang Juli 2017: Eins der zwei Geräte funktioniert nicht mehr, neue Batterien brachten nichts, das Gerät ist kaputt. Mal sehen was der Lieferant jetzt in Sachen Garantie/Gewährleistung auf die Beine bringt .... Fortsetzung folgt Update: Austausch des defekten Gerätes hat problemlos geklappt, Super Kundendienst !

Tout d'abord, je tiens à dire que j'aime les chats et apprécie leur grâce féline, moins leurs déjections. L'été dernier un nouveau félin s'est installé à quelques pavillons du mien. Rapidement j'ai constaté que la terre meuble située sous la haie servait de "crottoir" au matou. Ainsi, ayant marre de nettoyer régulièrement, j'ai essayé dans un premier temps de dissuader le gros chat du voisin de faire ses crottes (qui étaient de taille aussi...) dans mon jardin, avec du répulsif en granulé acheté en jardinerie (produit assez cher) qui s'est révélé sans résultat. Puis ensuite, afin de limiter les frais et après recherche sur Internet, j'ai concocté mon répulsif à base de poivre noir, soit disant très efficace contre les chats. Après plusieurs pulvérisations sur les zones sélectionnées par ce cher matou à l'aide de ce produit "fait maison", toujours et encore des crottes... La guerre est déclarée, je prends donc les grands moyens et décide d'implanter sur les endroits crottés des bâtons en bois. Seulement la bête est maline, car elle faisait ses déjections entre les rangées de petits bâtons, que j'augmentais au fur et à mesure, jusqu'à constituer une véritable "ligne Sigfried" dans mon jardin. En ayant plus qu'assez de voir mon jardin se hérisser de plus en plus de bâtons, j'ai décidé de franchir le pas en essayant les répulsifs à ultra sons, bref je n'avais plus rien à perdre. Après lecture des différents avis sur Internet, j'ai fais ma commande, réceptionné les deux appareils faciles à monter et les ai installé aux endroits "stratégiques" (face aux lieux de passage obligatoire du minet). J'ai positionné les deux boutons au milieu de leur course, pensant augmenter progressivement par la suite si ce positionnement était insuffisant (pour l'instant je n'ai pas eu à le faire). Par contre ayant lu que ces appareils semblaient sensibles à l'humidité (au niveau du couvercle des piles), j'ai confectionné dans des boîtes en plastique deux protections contre la pluie avec une fenêtre en façade. A ce jour, possédant depuis plus d'un mois ces 2 répulsifs, je ne constate plus aucune crotte dans mon jardin (vérification faite quotidiennement). Vers le début de l'installation des appareils, une fois le chat a été aperçu courant comme un fou le long de ma maison et prenant la fuite hors du jardin, sans demander son reste, était-ce l'effet des ultrasons ? Quant à la durée de fonctionnement des piles, je ne peux me prononcer avec objectivité pour l'instant. Par contre, afin de les économiser, chaque fois que je dois travailler dans mon jardin, je soulève les boîtiers de protection que je leur ai fabriqué, et retourne la façade avec la fenêtre vers l'arrière ce qui évite au détecteur de se déclencher sans cesse. J'ai donc attendu pour rédiger ce commentaire et peux objectivement déclarer qu'à ce jour, il n'y a plus de déjections félines dans mon jardin, et d'après mes observations je le crois sincèrement grâce à ces répulsifs que je conseille vivement.

Prodotto valido, funzionale, ne ho acquistati parecchi e funzionano tutti alla grande, molto soddisfatto, grazie

Compré 4 y ahora compré 4 más. Por el momento han desaparecido las incursiones de merde. No quiero ilusionarme pero hace unos días que no aparecen. Al mismo tiempo compre unas puas anchas antigatos para los muros que todavía no he colocado. En el jardin delantero de unos 60 mts 2 habrá 6 aparatos y en un lateral de la casa colocaré 2 más. Si esto da resultado será como habersesacado la lotería.
