Bird Chase Super Sonic, Outdoor Sound Repellent | 1 Acre Coverage, Scares Away Pest Birds, Durable Weather Resistant Design, For Large Open Outside Spaces, Programmable Device

It worked great at keeping the grackles out of my yard but it only worked about 2 weeks before the display went to pause & wouldn't come on anymore. The company Birdbgone is shipping me a new one but haven't received it yet. Hope it works longer than 2 weeks this time

I suppose everyone's experience will be different depending on a host of factors. I live on 20 acres in WA state and have barn swallows (repeat customers) that insist on nesting on the ledge above the living room windows. This year I was determined not to have the side of the house messed up but didn't have time for hand to beak so I got this machine to play while I was away. The first response was from the teenagers and wife, "Do we have to listen to that?" But it did appear to work - for about 2 weeks. I liken it to a Gary Larson cartoon with the birds saying, "This is going to be fun, he's got one of those stupid bird-call machines." It was soon apparent it had little effect on the swallows so I shut it off. While waiting for the ferry to go to work one morning I became much more interested than usual in the thin wire they string above all railings. I went home and did the same above the windows. End of problem.

I live in Phoenix Az and we had a pigeon problem since my stupid neighbors began feeding them next door. We have a pool with beach entry and the pigeons used it as a bird bath. Anyhow I ordered this bird super sonic device and set for daytime and pigeon setting and in the first hour pigeons were gone. However being that they are homing pigeons they did not go far and as soon as I turned it off they cautiously returned. So next day I turned it on again and set it along rear fence walk facing my house and angled slighty at about 30 degree angle, not sure if it made a difference, but wanted the sound to be directed toward the roof. Anyhow, i kept it plugged in and on for a few days and the birds moved to a house 2 streets behind us. I went ahead and left it on for a full month and believe it or not there are no pigeon anywhere within my neighborhood of around at least 1/4 mile. No joke guys!!! We had a new roof installed and I did not want these rats pooping om my new concrete tile so this is why I bought it. One of my neighbors did complain about the noise cause it spooked his dog but this was the same dumb Johnny Apple Seed $@!#% who was feeding the pigeons in the first place so I told him to STFU. Anyhow it also attracted some real hawks which may have actually helped. It has been about 10 months since the pigeon left and they are still gone. The other reviewers must not be allowing this time to work. It really does. I will try and load pics of my roof and neighborhood to show that there are no pigeons anymore. We do have crows but they don't bother me at all.I could use the crow setting if they did. I recommend this unit 100%. Just be sure to place in shade or the plastic clear cover will yellow slightly. No biggie it still works. I will keep and if those pigeons ever return I will plug it in again. But I don't think they will ever be back. Yes!!!!

Works good most of the time but some birds get use to it and hang around . But only a couple instead 20 or more that decide to live on our grass in the back yard . Canadian geese ! It needs to be reset just about every week or it stops working no big deal if your around an can do it . This is my second one the first one lasted 13 months. Easer than owning a dog .

The speaker works just as described, it makes all kinds of bird noises and it is very loud BUT it doesn't scare the birds away. After 6 months of use on my backyard I still have a bad case of birds sitting and pooping from a tree into my patio deck which makes it impossible to use. The device is priced very high which led me to believe that it would be the solution to my bird problem, but after trying different settings, volume levels etc, the birds don't care about the sounds the device emits. I installed the box a couple feet away from the tree and the doves and pigeons still land on the tree and relief themselves and sleep on the tree at night. Waste of money, doesn't scare birds away.

Loud and kept the woodpecker away for some days… then I guess the bird got used to the sound

The bird scare sound device works fine. It is loud, consistent and turns off at night if you want it to (not mentioned in any of its advertisements).BUT, it only has two "all bird" sounds (one distress and one hawk) and that repeats every 10 minutes. The traditional Bird Guard randomly gives distress calls (about 15) and you can change the timing. It is a much better device, worth the 40% higher price.

I tried everything to get rid of the Starlings that turned my pool cover into a filthy bird bath. These birds have no fear, they would land on the side of the pool 2 feet from us while we were swimming. All the other birds were gone because of these bullies of rhe sky. I tried owls, which I moved daily, snakes, a rubber alligator, a spray (which sorta worked if you sprayed it 2-3 x daily) The birds would just laugh at me and continue to poop everywhere. Then I bought this device. I really did not expect much. But I plugged it in. Saw a pigeon on.my fense, so set it to pigeon, the device played and the pigeon flew away. Hummmm. Ok. Then I set it to Starling. And since that I time I have seen just one starling, it landed in.my yard far end away from the device. So I turned yhe device up a bit, and I haven't seen one of those nasty birds since. My pool cover is clean. No more birds hanging out and pooping everywhere. TBH we found the noise weird at first, but within a few days we just leaned to live it, and it's no big deal now.
