will this deter possums?

I don't have possums but the squirrels sure made fun of it :)) animals are smart it might work for a bit

Sorry, I haven't seen any possums in my area but I'd have to say it's certainly worth a try. It did keep deer and raccoons out of our garden last summer so it worked for them. Hope this helps.

it might but not sure as it works on a pole preventing a squirrel from going up

The product works well for rabbits. While I do not know for certain, my guess is that it would also work for raccoons. The scent of a predator likely would repel these critters as well.

Yes but you need to mount it higher and point the sensor more to the ground. It gets rid of possums n squirrels as well

As far as I can tell it works against rabbits. Not sure about moles and voles though.

I am not sure but my guess is no. This device works by sending small vibrations through the ground which the underground animals do not like but would not affect animals on the ground - like rabbits.

No, it will not stop a dog from leaving an area. It's only meant to deter a dog from barking but it didn't do that for my German Shepherds or my Pit Bull, unfortunately.

I believe so. We have our unit positioned far from our house along a lengthy driveway and it detects someone walking by or animal (deer) movement.

Victor, I could not get this gadget to work at all. I had it installed facing direct East sun. I ended up trashing it just before I moved from my former home. It just did not keep stray dogs, skunks, raccoons, cats, mice, etc. off my property.

I'm not sure. I tried using it only for deer, which didn't work. I switched to Deer Stopper that resolved the problem. I also used human hair and garlic, to repel the animals. It worked!!!

I use it to deter a raccoon. I put it by the fence where he enters the yard, and it has worked wonderfully.

Yes. Make sure the sensor is pointed low enough to "see" the smaller critters.

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.

Hard to say, I used it for mice control and it didn't work. Seems to me it should work right away if the sounds from it is suppose to stop the critters from going where you have it.

The material is pretty flimsy so I doubt it would stop a determined squirrel. That being said I didn't have any squirrel problem at all. Whether it was because of the material waving in the wind or the fact that I trap any squirrels I see in my yard and export them across the river I don't know.Keep Smiling

It should, I would camouflage the trap if possible because shrews are more timid. And know what the shrew eats- better your chances of out smarting it.

I don't think it will help you. It will only deter timid animals like deer or squirrels. Bobcats are more aggressive animals and the ultrasonic sound will not have much effect. I suggest you try one of the items that others here recommend.
