Hoont Cobra Animal Repeller | Outdoor Solar-Powered Motion-Activated Water Blaster with Powerful Jet Spray for Yard, Lawn & Garden | Scare Away Deer, Rabbits, Squirrels, Birds & Other Animals & Pests

Free-range cats come into my yard and terrorize my indoor rescue kitties through the glass door and try to kill humming birds that I feed.This is just what I have been looking for, super easy to get set up.Solved issues some others have reported in the reviews:Leaking stopped when I unscrewed and reconnected the plastic connection that the metal spike goes into. I tightened it really well with the top piece close to the main unit, and then when screwing in the metal hose connection/ spike I tightened it carefully but completely (so not to crack the plastic).To get the spray to aim lower I angled the unit so the spray faces downward to get at cat level.It seems to be perfect to deter outdoor cats which is what I was hoping for. Will update if needed after some use.

worked great......for 2 days. On day three I went to check on my plants. (The ones I purchased this sprinkler to protect.) The sprinkler didn't activate at all. Checked the water, it was on. Waved my hand in front of the sensor, nothing. I swapped out the batteries with a fresh set and it started working again, but the sensitivity was way off. Had to get withing 10 feet of the sprinkler where it was activating from 40 feet prior. The rechargeable batteries are no good? The new batteries are weak? who knows? Going to try another set of batteries, if that doesn't work, it's getting returned.

Having frequent visits by deer to our backyard was never an issue (actually it was a pleasure to watch them!) until we installed new landscaping. It became a problem as we saw the tender new growth of our new plants being nibbled away nightly.While searching for a solution, I looked at a number of popular deer deterrents and even tried a few that proved ineffective or too smelly to continue using. After all, we added new landscaping so that we could enjoy the backyard, but the odor from some of the popular deer deterrents worked more as a human deterrent!Then I found the Hoont sprinkler solution. What a terrific idea! I ordered 3 units to serve as a "water fence" between the open lot behind us and our backyard. And since installing them 2 weeks ago, we have not seen the first deer enter our planting bed. And there has been no evidence of additional damage to the new plants. So far, the system seems to be working perfectly.As those who are looking for deer deterrents understand, deer are very adaptable and clever where food is concerned. Time will tell if they figure out a way around the sprinklers, but for now they are staying away.The units were very easy to assemble and install. I plumbed them in sequence using 1/2" landscape tubing. It took a little searching to find the correct hose fittings, but once installed, they do not leak at all.I am so glad to have found a humane and simple solution to our deer problems. They even provide a bit of entertainment when our cat inadvertently wanders within sensor range.I highly recommend this product!

This worked GREAT until a snow storm hit. I bought it to keep deer away from my garden and keep the stray cats out my yard and away from my cats outdoor catio! After the snow storm last month, the Hoont randomly goes off when there is no motion present. I tried turning it off and it still goes off.I recommend this product but take it inside before any major freeze or snow event.

It works perfectly. However, after about 6 months, I was going to work one morning and saw water running down my driveway...all the way from the back yard. The fixture on the device broke or something and it was gushing water...probably all night. So it didn't last as long as I would have liked, but it drove away every animal that walked through my backyard. Cats, Rabbits, Skunks, Possum, Fox, squirrels. Although...squirrels are pretty dumb and tend to get sprayed in the face for a few seconds before they decide to run away.

In the past several years, I've purchased more than a dozen of a very similar motion activated sprinkler. They all stopped working, and the weakest part was this cheap plastic pipe that kept snapping. I believe another reviewer shared a photo of this part breaking. However, this product has a huge improvement, as you can skip that pipe piece. So far, I'm very satisfied... Yes, this is by no means perfect- it sometimes shoots at blowing leaves, it probably will stop working since it's sitting under the sun day after day. However, just the fact that I don't have to worry about its neck snapping and causing my backyard to flood is a huge improvement!

I used to scoff at the review where people would say, "Stopped working after two weeks," but not any more. Bought this to chase the birds off the newly planted lawn. First off, it says it will detect birds, but unless you have condors landing on your grass, this thing won't scare anything. Pigeons might set it off, if you're lucky. Even large flocks of them. Came out one day to find a carpet of pigeons gorging themselves on my seed right in front of this sprinkler and didn't go off until I chased them off. Then suddenly it was like, "Hey dude, I had this. I was just waiting for the right moment." After two weeks of use, it stopped working. Wouldn't run when it was supposed to. Then, it started running without any movement. Over and Over 5 seconds at a time. Then, it started running for more than 5 seconds at a time. The final straw was when I came home one day to find it had been running non stop for hours. Flooded my backyard hardcore and drowned the newly planted rye and ballooned my water bill. Complete garbage. Thankfully, I'm within the 30 return period, so I will be taking advantage of that and get my $40 back.
