GARDIGO® Water Jet Animal Repellent | Bird Repellent, Heron Repellent, Cat Repellent Garden | Motion Activated Sprinkler | Up to 10m Range | Pigeon Deterrent Heron Scarer | Batteries Included

Best fox deterrent, have tried ultrasonic gadgets but not as effective as this water jet.

... this item daily for four months now, so I feel that I have given it enough of a run to be able to sensibly comment. I will start by telling you what I use it for. This product has saved my garden ! I utilise it to deter cats from entering under a side gate and using my borders to relieve themselves on with uncanny - and dismaying - regularity. Since installing this product, my soil has not been defaecated upon even once ! No more do I have to contend with that putrid odour of pussy excrement as I stoop to scoop the poop yet again. I have it permanently attached to a hose which is fitted with an electronic timer. As I do not wish to be soaked every time I go to my garage, I have set the timer so that it comes on from seven at night to seven in the morning and I adjust it with the seasons. (As I am mostly at home during the day, I find that the cats are not so much an issue during daylight hours.) Please note that if you do this, there is always some residual water in the system and I recommend dangling a foot in front of the sensor for that first discharge before walking past in the mornings ! And do make sure that you remember to warn anyone else who might be housesitting, for example ! Otherwise, they will not thank you as the oscillating jet stays on for about five seconds and doesn't take any prisoners !! The direction and reach of the spray are easily adjustable. The motion sensor, I have found, works extremely well but one has to use some sense with these things ! Yes, it will be set off by things blowing around in front of it so position it facing a bare wall or fence if you can (or ensure that large plants are sufficiently far away) and don't leave it facing the sun. And anyway, the occasional 'false alarm' is a small price to pay for a cat-free garden !! I have yet to change the batteries and the unit is working as well as it did when first installed. As is my wont, I shall update this review should the product cease to function as it should at any stage. I will be very surprised if it makes it through the winter unscathed, but I shall certainly give it a go. If I have missed anything that you desperately wish to know, ask a question and I will do my best to respond... FV P.S. I have a field at the foot of my garden and to keep the cats away at that end - because another one of these would be a little extravagant - I have a PIR motion sensor built into an audio recorder onto which I have recorded the sound of a big dog barking loudly ! It's quite fun listening to their madly scrabbling paws when they first encounter it !! With both deterrents, I can finally breathe easy. AAAaaahhh... P.P.S. 09.04.2024 - Amazingly, the unit DID survive the winter (although I took it into the garage for three of the really cold days). I changed the batteries last month for the first time in ten months. It is still going strong, with no leaks, and I think that's pretty good... P.P.P.S 08.01.2025 - this item has finally broken as I forgot to take it inside during the latest really cold spell and the plastic has burst ! It's my fault. You can't question the quality of the product, really. And, frankly, even if I had to buy a new one every year, I think that's worth doing for the function that it performs...

This is very sturdy, and sends a very powerful jet, and the motion sensor works well. We had great fun watching the neighborhood cats venture in and get chased out. The sprinkler cam be adjusted for direction, oscillation, and height. The only negative is that it doesn't have an "always on" feature, so if I want to water the garden normally I have to disconnect it and attach my normal sprinkler

Worked fantastically for the first week, then the water jet stopped moving from side to side as it sprayed and started leaking. The leak is now so bad it doesn't work, the water just piddles out in one direction. Waste of money and time, now have to buy another more expensive one

Stop buying all these sonic alarms and other random fox deterrents. I’ve spent enough money on them over the years. This is ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT, it literally soaks the fox! They run away and stay away. Keep moving it to digger t position every week or so to keep the foxes guessing. We’ve not had a single fox poo in the garden since I bought it. Great product

Ok so this arrived in a smaller box than expected. It also came with batteries. It took 5 minutes to assemble. Connected to a hose and it leaks from the ring on the bottom. I put PTFE tape on which resolved that. The head needs to be put on tight, otherwise you will get soaked when it whizzes around and falls off. Testing with a bucket on a string got zero activations. I realised it needed body heat too. So I waited and the neighbours cat soon got washed. Job done.

This does the job! Tried all sorts to stop cats using my garden as a toilet, the ultrasonic things dodnr make any difference, this however is awesome, installed it yesterday and already noticed on my CCTV it was triggered by a cat last night. Never seen a cat move so quickly! Definitely recommend this!

Great product . No more cats

Installé depuis 2 jours, déjà plus de crottes de chat. Super satisfait.

J’ai une mini cave ouverte sur le jardin et les chats des voisins venaient uriner dedans et sur tout ce qui y étais. Je ne savais plus quoi faire et j’ai vu ce genre d’outil qui n’est ni dangereux ni douloureux pour les chats. Je l’ai mis en bas des escaliers et ça fonctionne à merveille. Après 2 semaines, j’ai débranché le robinet et les chats ne viennent plus. Je recommande vivement.

Es Genial y efectivo…

Bought this for my garden to stop neighbourhood cats from pooping in it and it worked very well. The first time the cat tried after we set it up the cat took off and hasn’t been back. I am leaving it set up though just to be sure.

Wanted to keep the kitties from popping in my garden. Works like a charm. It took some tweaking to get the right settings, but works great.
