Product Description
The Mini Scarecrow safely and humanely protects your covered porch or patio, potted plants, or countertops. A motion sensor activates a warning sound and a brief, harmless spray of compressed air to keep your pet away. Once your pet learns to recognize the warning sound, you can switch to "sound only" mode to conserve compressed air. The motion sensor and spray are separately adjustable so they can be positioned precisely.

4 out of 5 stars Wonderful! Works well. Not harmful or painful.   February 21, 2007
 8 out of 8 found this review helpful

This item is awesome. We've been using it to keep our kittens off of the kitchen counter when we're away. People have been telling us that you can't train kittens -- they are wrong.
First off, the only reason I gave this item 4 stars is that it uses (4x) AAA batteries and does not have a DC plug-in port. The miniscarecrow seems to blow through these in a little over a month of all-day-everyday use.
That said, the motion sensor works well and is tuned perfectly (for a cat size object). It's neither too sensitive nor too slow. We set ours up on the counter (out-of-site) pointing across the length of the counter.... no more "transgressions".
As an additional bonus, this things works *outstanding* on humans too (as a prank to scare them). Come Halloween, I'm going to have some fun!
Last bit....the spray is truly non toxic and non-harmful. Having triggerred it myself numerous times (forgot it was on) and take a blast right to the face. The spray doesn't smell or leave residue -- it's only a little bit cold.
