can birds see you in the house?(scare them off)

We think they might. It's not the right season for nesting, so we're not sure, but I wouldn't buy from this distributor. It is supposed to come with a one way mirrored sheet but didn't.

A bird could see you in the house, but I haven't had a bird nest in mine, so I don't know if they'd get scared off.

Meant to answer no, they can't see you. There is a swinging door to attach to your window that covers the box. You move it to the side and you can look in.

It is suppose to come with a one way window so that the birds can't see you but neither of my packages had that in them. A friend of mine ordered one and said the one way window is a film you put on the piece close to you window. She seems to feel the birds can see them and that is the reason they can't get birds to stay.

That's exactly what happens. I had a Sparrow that laid an egg and it hatched into a cute baby bird. Then the mommy bird got spooked and never came back and the baby bird died of starvation. I had a curtain behind the window and made sure to be quiet. I think it is a very risky design that is not good for the birds.

I am sorry I don't have a very good answer. I gave it to my daughter for Christmas. She has it up but so far no birds. Hoping for spring nesters.She thinks it could get noisy if it were in a bedroom because it is right up against the window..and there would be lots of chirping from baby birds.I guess it depends how sensitive you would be to that kind of noise.I think it would be a lot of fun to watch.Sorry I can't be of more help.

I had pigeons on my roof. It didn't deter them whatsoever. The pigeons crapped all over it so I returned it and got my refund.

Doubt it, the space needs to be restrictive like a gopher hole, and the gas might shoo them away but not likely to kill them, maybe babies in a nest if you could get it right in their face. It would be highly undesirable to have the gas seep up into your house. I suggest a live trap then dispatch them, set up a blind and off them ( if you have the time and patience), seal up the house better, get a food-type bait poison. Good hunting.

No I don't think so. The side that diverts the birds away from the window would be facing into your room if you put them on the inside. They need to be on the outside.

If birds can hear it most likely humans can hear it. Birds have a similar hearing range to us, unlike dogs. Complete waste of money and annoying to boot.

I imagine that they will nibble the leaves that poke through, but we used this as a bird deterrent. Worked great for birds.

You could either squirt it into a crack where no birds/mammals can get at it, or you can make your own bait station by cutting a narrow slot in some PVC tubing, and putting a brick on top of it so birds/mammals can't get at it (use two pieces of PVC for stability). Don't forget to label your bait station so anyone who comes across it knows exactly what's inside (for safety's sake).

I suppose if you have the device close to the house and your windows were open it would disturb the indoor cats. My unit is about 10 feet from the house and it does not disturb the indoor cats.

I'm not sure. We were hoping it would scare the birds away, especially woodpeckers. (Our house is all wood) But it did not work. Now it just sits there now as an ornament.

A light covering will work; it's very sticky and effective. We applied it along our wood privacy fence (where our pesky bird would land) and used the tape (reflective aspects frightens the woodpecker).

You have to use your own judgment for your situation. I have them quite a distance apart - three or four on my sliding glass doors. You can judge by the places that show evidence that a bird has flown into the window.

Dear Margaux There are two bird repelling settings on the ET Bird Control 2000. Changing this repelling feature is a simple push of a button on the upper left hand side of the unit. The first setting repels more in the Ultrasonic Sound Rages and is very inaudible. The second setting is set between Sonic and Ultrasonic Sounds and this setting is defiantly audible. Its not that bothersome though. If you were in your home and the device was going off just outside you pretty much wouldn't hear the sounds within your home. Also the sounds are very tolerable if you are within the area.

Not when they're eating off your bird feeder. We put just enough tension on that they feel it and run but we don't maim them. We shoot from our kitchen window. Now they run when they hear the window open

Not sure about the eave, but ours are in the kids bedroom and they are always close to the window and doesn't appear to keep the birds away.

Pigeons are larger fowl, and this works well to keep them out. however if you do have a problem with them get an air gun, or and air soft gun and target practice.

It would seem possible, since this is a one-way viewing product. It might be a good idea to order a piece and try it in daylight and at night when the lights are on inside and dark outside (not necessarily when it needs to perform for the bird viewing.) Mary
