Solar Ultrasonic Garden Bird Repeller

Velleora Home Decor's Solar Ultrasonic Bird Repeller is for the gardener who has lost a crop of cherries or a newly seeded lawn and would rather not resort to netting everything. Staked in a border or a vegetable bed, it combines ultrasonic pulses with a motion-triggered flashing light to make the immediate area unappealing to birds and small animals - without harming anything.

It runs entirely on solar. The panel charges through the day, the sensor arms at the appropriate times, and there is no cable to trip over or battery to change through the season. The sealed housing shrugs off rain and sprinklers, the stake pushes into soft ground without tools, and different sensitivity and frequency settings let you tune it to the animal you are actually dealing with.

Move it every few days: the single most common reason these devices stop working is that the local wildlife has learned to ignore a device that never changes position. Site it with a clear line of sight across the area you want protected, since ultrasound does not travel through fences, hedges or greenhouse glass, and treat it as a deterrent rather than a guarantee.
