Safe for Animals & People
Other wildlife deterrents are inhumane and unsafe for humans. The goal is to get the animals to move along, not get hurt. Spikes, chemical deterrents, and even animal decoys are not only unsightly but can damage your lawn. The Orbit Yard Enforcer Motion Activated Sprinkler works by detecting motion in the designated area, releasing a burst of noise and activating the sprinkler function for a blast of water.
Day/Night Settings
Most critters are active at dawn/dusk and overnight; setting controls give you the option to have the motion detector sprinkler activate during the day, at night, or 24 hours a day for full-time protection from uninvited visitors. It can also be manually turned on and off.
Solid Construction
Securely affix the motion activated sprinkler in the ground with a heavy duty steel spike. Its brass hose swivel connects to any garden hose and provides a leak-free connection that will not corrode or break over time.

Pro:
Most humane way to get rid of a stray cat that cannot be trapped.
Adjustable blasting zone.
Eventually it will work
Cons:
We have a bumpy lawn and aiming it was a bit challenging.
Lots of false positives when it was windy – triggers on leaves and rustling bushes.

Our chickens love to feast in our succulent garden. This is the most effective solution i have found to scare them off and train them to stay away. Really works!

Deer eating everything, birds eating my grass seed and my garden. This severely reduced such incidents. I have two hooked up right now. It won’t help with rabbits. Rabbits just keep at eating while they get sprayed. The sprinkler head is fragile. If you’re careful, the head will last a few years. Customer service has been slow during covid, but was good pre-covid.

Really like watching my security cam videos where the raccoons get scared of by the Enforcer. Would love to see a time clock on this device too, as I’d like to have it operational between midnight and 6a only; once days shorten, we’ll be constantly worried about watering the delivery folks or paper delivery. Also, ideally, we could hook this into our intelligent camera system which picks up animals quite well – could be much more accurate that way!

I ordered the Yard Defender to chase away the deer in my front yard. When I received it I found that it had another setting to deal with small animals. Since I had a nighttime visitor that was tearing up my yard, probably a raccoon, I decided to put it in my back yard. I have heard it going off several times a night and the damage has not continued. I still am trying to deal with the pesky deer in the front yard so I am trying to order a second one with the discount code they gave me for writing this review. However, it is not apparent in their ordering system how to do this. I rate the Yard Defender Very High, however, I rating Orbit’s computer system as being very confusing. 5 or the Yard Defender, 2 for the Orbit computer system.
