Squirrel Deterrent
July 15th, 2010 by admin
This is the best squirrel deterrent so far. We tried pepper spray, blood powder, and other stinky spray but our Brooklyn squirrels weren’t deterred from digging up our expensive ground cover. We put off buying the Contech Scarecrow because of the price but it’s the only thing that works. Simple to set up but you have to play with the direction of spray and it’s scope to get the best effect (it may be good to change this every few weeks to keep the critters on their toes). It doesn’t hurt them (I read somewhere that pepper spray can blind them) and it’s FUN to watch them try to avoid the spray or get zapped by it. One problem is that they can still dig right under the Scarecrow where the spray doesn’t reach but their little brains don’t remember that from day to day. I wish I had bought it sooner.
