Will this help me repel deer, squirrels and chipmonks? Do I need a different one for each animal?

I have 2 units in the yard and after a year I have not seen any deer in the yard. They seem to make a beeline around it. No other critters either.But birds stay around. Give it months to be effective. The animals need to be "trained" to stay away.

Hello. I purchased this unit to drive strays from my backyard. (Which didn't work by the way). There aren't any deers, squirrels or chipmunks where I live so I'm unable to comment. But according to the yard sentinel website, this device is designed to repel both domestic and wild animals.

Hi Lynn,The Yard sentinel does effectively repel deer, squirrel and chipmunks. Although squirrel and chipmunks can often be deterred by the same frequency, deer tend to be effected by the lower end of ultrasonic sound.For best results at repelling multiple species at the same time, try the "continuous sweep" setting. This will allow the unit to randomly cycle through all of the available frequencies rather then targeting a specific pest!Regards,Rick JCustomer ServiceDeal Republic

I only had deer and gophers eating everything . Nothing has been touched this year so far. I have a small peach tree with tiny fruit, they too are still there, whereas my neighbors have had squirrels attack them. I f you buy the thing, have the setting on continuous or sweep. the sensor does not sense far enough away. Also my young granddaughter hates the sound. I don't hear it.

According to the Manual, it can be used for large and small animals as there are various settings for most pests. Some settings are useful for more than one type. Since I am using it with a limited range for my deck (10 to 15 ft), I can only assure you of the success I have had with both the ultrasonic signal and the strobe light in a nighttime setting , using the motion sensor to activate. Wish I could be more helpful

Not sure. I use it to repel deer. It really works. The deer usually ravage our hostas and day lilies. The Yard Sentinel kept the deer away, and this past summer was the first time we ever saw these plants bloom.

NO, it will not. I use it all over my gardens to repel Bunnies and it works 100%. I have a dog and it does not "repel" her from the garden.

I doube it will work. I used it to scare rabbits and squirrels from the yard. It works for a couple of days, then they came back. As long as they have a nest nearby, they will get used to the smell in a few days.

This trap is pretty useless to catch squirrels. I would imagine chipmunks are about the same. All they have to do is roll the unit over and the latch will move enough to allow the doors to open - and bye bye animal. I recommend the Havahart 1078. Once you catch anything in there it will not be able to get out, period. It is totally worth the extra money.

It worked on my chicken and deer problem. I would expect it to work on skunks. If you have a specific area to defend it should be effective.

As long as it's not sprayed on vegetable. Spray around them, not on them. I bought it for ground squirrels and it worked for me.

The Pest-a-Cator works through the wiring in the walls, as you probably know. As long as your RV is hooked up to electricity of some kind, I think the it would help deter mice and rats. I really don't know if it discourages other animals like squirrels, raccoons, etc. We had a problem with mice in our home, installed 2 of these and haven't seen mice in months; we keep them plugged in "just in case". Good luck!

I would ask the manufacturer. It works great on gophers but I've never tried on squirrels. Sorry

I really can't say. I got it for deer and it seems to work. If the logic of a predator is the same with rabbits, it should work. On the other hand, I'm not to sure how smart wabbits are.

I'm not sure whether this product works for squirrels or deer. There are still too many of both in our yard.

Yes! The noise this Sentinel makes will scare off animals! Place it where the plants are, pointing it forward to detect any animals.

It will sting the dog real good but not penatrate the skin. Same with the deer. I use mine to keep unwanted pets and critters out of my yard.

Good morning, I believe it will repel racoons, the reason I say this I have a Boykin Spaniel and he will activate the sensor. But he has to be fairly close to the sensor 15ft. My issue is deer.

I do not have a chipmunk problem but it works GREAT for squirrels and I feel confident that it will prevent chipmunks from climbing the pole. I will caution that squirrels will drop down from a branch above the feeder if possible. I thought I had pruned the branches far enough but had to prune a little more as they were making quite a lengthy jump to get to the feeders. I have watched them and they will stand at the bottom and look up then jump on the pole and look some more then finally just give up and go back to scavenging for dropped morsels under the bird feeders.

My experience says it won't keep anything away. The deer stroll right up and eat my fuchsias. The squirrels still dig holes in my garden and planters. As for birds, they still empty the bird feeder three feet away from the unit.

It has worked well with squirrels, raccoons and cats. I think it would work with chipmunks too. The area between the baffle and pole is too small for a chipmunk to go through.
