This Owl not only looks great on my front porch, but it also scarred the squirrels away(at least in the front yard anyway).,
I purchased this product at a discounted rate, in exchange for my honest & unbiased review! I had 2 reasons I wanted this Owl 1) I recently moved, & I noticed that there was a squirrel problem. I never realized the damage a squirrel could do when there's way to many of them! I am talking every morning at least 4 on my porch and a couple in the trees, some on my roof and my garage. I've honestly never seen so many! I also noticed there digging a hole on my house, which is a huge problem. This is why I took the opportunity to give this Owl a try to see if it could scare them away. 2) I thought it would be a nice addition to my yard.
When it arrived I was really amazed at how realistic the owl looked. And I was really surprised at how light weight it was. I took the owl out of the package to find it has 2 pieces of metal on the bottom which each has a hole! They slide so you can position the owl where you would like to put it. I also noticed it came with 2 screws which I didn't end up using only because they were super small! They probably would work but with how windy it can get I didn't want to take the chance of it blowing away! So I got 2 roofing nails out which are really long and strong. I then went to open up the bottom to put batteries in, BUT to my surprise there was a green battery inside already. I then noticed there wasn't 2, but there are 2 slots for 2 batteries. That's when I looked at the paper that came with the Owl. I thought they forgot to put the 2sd one in. Which the paper states it only needs 1 Ni-MH AA rechargeable battery & that the other compartment is inactive! Meaning this only requires 1 battery! Also on the bottom there is a On & Off switch. Which is also very nice! So I then put it in place. I chose my porch because that's where my problems are with the squirrels. At night the Owl looks so realistic and so neat looking!
I put the Owl up 9 days ago to be exact! I have not seen any squirrels. BUT there still in my backyard so I am thinking I need another Owl to put back there, or maybe I should move it to my backyard to see if they disappear or go back to my front yard. I honestly don't mind them being back there as there is nothing they can ruin, my biggest issue was them digging into my siding on my porch. Which now I have to fix! Overall I have to say the Owl did its duty & I am glad I had the chance to snag it at a discounted rate! I definitely recommend this to anyone who is having similar issues as I was having or looking for a nice piece of decor for your yard!
