Review: Really Works! Forget the Negative Reviews!! - I had some friends years ago who used to keep an owl statue near their in ground swimming pool, to keep ducks from landing in the pool. And it worked well. This owl statue is even better, because the head rotates. When the little solar panel gets sun, the head rotates every 2 minutes and makes a fairly loud clicking noise. The head even moves around if it gets somewhat windy. It's sort of like a bobble-head, and it doesn't take much for the head to move. I understand there's people on here writing negative reviews and showing pictures of a bird sitting in the same vicinity as the owl. I have a large deck and it's surrounded by bushes and fairly large arborvitaes. I would constantly have at least 50+ birds in the trees and bushes in the morning & evening. They were extremely loud, especially when the sun comes up. My deck was constantly coated with bird poop, hence the reason I purchased this owl. Fast forward to 3 months later....I'm a Believer! I haven't had bird poop on my deck in a few months now. Sure, a bird does land in the trees around my deck on occasion, but then it sees the owl or hears the clicking noise and it takes off. It took about a month for the birds to completely clear out, so give it a chance. They come back to their home trees, and eventually keep noticing a predator (the owl), so they stop coming. I still get the occasional bird, but it doesn't stay long, and that's much better than the 50+ birds. So don't believe the negative reviews. If you need to get rid of birds, this thing really works! It's even quite durable. It's lightweight, and has taken a few spills off my deck railing due to strong winds. It's fallen about 6 feet on at least 3 occasions & the head came off a couple times, but it simply pops right back on. There's a 1 3/4" diameter hole in the bottom, and I plan on mounting the owl to my deck using some PVC pipe & a floor flange. Definitely glad I purchased this and I would highly recommend it.
Review: Excellent Scare-Owl! See my tips for effective installation. - I used this in my backyard garden and it did a wonderful job of deterring the squirrels and birds. I had almost zero bite marks in my 10' x 20' veggie garden. I read many of the reviews before purchasing so I could customize my installation to give the most effect. This is a very realistic looking model, it even had my cat on edge while un-boxing. But once she got close enough to smell / inspect it, she was no longer fooled. While the owl looks intimidating, any animal could tell the difference up close. Solution: keep the owl at least 5-10 feet from the nearest perch that a bird or squirrel could inspect it from. I mounted the owl on a 10 ft. aluminum pole in the center of my garden where a pest couldn't possibly come close enough to tell the difference between a plastic scarecrow and real peril. It seemed to work because the squirrels that used to raid the garbage cans are now too nervous to come anywhere near the area. Only other issue I noticed was the owl sits awkwardly on a bare pole because of the hollow cavity not being balanced on the center of gravity. This was easily fixed by placing a 12" x 1" pvc pipe in the owl's cavity and filling the gaps with spray-foam. The owl stands straight and securely on the aluminum pole now and can easily be slid off/on. This setup with the pole and pvc base allows me to install the owl anywhere I want pretty quickly, although I haven't noticed it lose effect from keeping it in the same spot. In fact, I've kept it outside for 9 months straight now; through summer storms and winter snows, and it's still clicking and spinning like new. I think if the company included some installation equipment or if people took the time to craft these alternative solutions, a lot more reviews would be 5 stars. This really is a great product! Glad I took a chance with it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good but required some trouble shooting..
*by D***N on March 30, 2011*

I bought this and the wind powered owl for squirrels. So far, so good. The squirrel population has thinned and will hopefully remain so. This model is a great idea and is endlessly entertaining. I especially like that no batteries are required. The solar panel is used in conjunction with a capacitor. When the solar panel charges the capacitor to a point, the capacitor discharges and powers the motor. Very nice design. When I first tried it, the head would catch on something and never fully rotate. I finally stuck my finger into the head and felt a wire that seemed to be obstructing full rotation. I gently pushed it against the inside wall of the head and since, it's been dutifully and fully rotating it's head. It also helps to keep the base as level as possible. The solar panel seems to be very efficient, working even on overcast days. The real test of this and the wind powered owl will be when the young squirrels emerge later this spring but so far so good. Update, 05/12/2011: the squirrels are gone. It's almost errie. At this time of year, the baby squirrels are usually out in force. I haven't seen one in several weeks. Normally there are at least a few at running around, playing and observing during daylight hours. After placing this owl on a fence and a wind powered owl on a pole, the squirrels are completely gone. The downside is that the birds are too. Only the Mockingbirds and Cardinals are present in their usual numbers. I can't quite bring myself to believe that this owl is responsible but I have no other explanation. The next test will be later in the season when the pecans start to grow but for the time being, I have to say this is a very effective squirrel deterrent. Another Update, 08/13/2015: the squirrels long ago figured out that this was little more than an anoyance and can be ignored. It seemed to work the first season or two. Moving it around didn't help. I finally had to toss it when wasps built a form fitted nest inside the head. It looked at first like the owl grew a brain. Because the nest was so tightly wrapped around the interior 'works', it was too difficult to scrape the nest off.
