4PCS Fake Owl, Garden Owl, Plastic Owls, Reflective Hanging Decoration, Effective Control Device with Reflective Tape for Garden Patio Windows Tree

I liked these owls. They are flat piece of good card stock paper and they do look real. But birds are smart and only stayed away for a few days. I took them down for a couple of days and glued some googley eyes on them before I put them back out in my garden and they sun would reflect off of the plastic eyes. I could see birds sitting on the fence nervously thinking about approaching the garden. I have one owl propped inside my tomato cage and this is the first year I have had tomatoes grow to full size with no damage from the birds. The owls are light weight and blow when the wind blows them so I like that they move around. They have a small bell attached to them. I don’t really hear the bells, but they give the owls a little weighted balance . They haven’t really faded or been damaged by light rain or heavy sun. Even though they look flimsy, they are well made.

Wish I could give these 0 stars because they do not work at all! Birds are definitely not scared of them. They will land right beside them and crap all over the place. They also do not withstand the weather outside. The owls quickly faded to an ugly blue color and now they don't work and they look ridiculous. We'll be taking them down to trash them sadly. What a waste of money.

Did not work at all for squirrels. Squirrels were eating my garden a few feet away from the hanging owls on the first day.

I ordered these because we had a huge, 3 year long issue with the eastern bluebirds…. The males were CONSTANTLY tearing up my screens and attacking their reflections in the window, from sun up until sun down, all year long. I tried using scent repellants, turning interior lights off, scaring them… nothing was working. But I ordered these owls and stuck one in each of the windows they would go after, and it has finally stopped!

Put them on my car windshield and they kept the birds away,

These thick construction type paper images of owls seemed like a possible good idea -- the silver mylar attracts attention to ward off birds but mice and rats could care less. I put these out in my garden and they didn't seem to help at all -- maybe keeping birds away if that's your only pests.

I got them to scare the woodpeckers and they do. I will advise all people who buy these to NOT use the included cord as it degrades very quickly outdoors. I would suggest replacing it with a nylon or polypropylene cord so it stays in place. But man these work really well. If they made a model to scare away my neighbours I'd buy that in a hurry :D

What was I thinking? You definitely get what you pay for with this product. The image printed on the cardboard cutouts is not very good. It does not look like what is advertised. They already looked like they had been bleached by the sun. Maybe the manufacturer thought pigeons have poor vision so these didn't need to be an outstanding representation of owls. I'm not sure, but I'm pretty certain I heard the pigeons roosting above our windows and pooping incessantly on our AC , laughing hysterically as I hung these "deterrents" in the vicinity of the offenders. The fake owls also came with a couple of long strips of silvery reflective material. Was this supposed to suggest the flat owls were festive and having a party? Are more owls coming? I don't know. There are no instructions as to their purpose or how to use it. Bottom line, these scared no one except a few dollars out of my bank account. I had better results playing the sounds of hawks which I found on YouTube, through my Bluetooth speaker. My opinion is it's definitely not worth the time or financial investment. You would do better dressed up as a giant owl. These are trash.

Que son impermeable, pero parece que los palom@s de España son tont@s, porque no dejan de cagar en mi balcón, ni se van asustad@s.

Realmente funciona!! No te quita el 100% de las visitas no deseadas pero las reduce bastante. Sin duda relación precio -efectividad estupendo

alles okey

They do not scare anything. Waste of money

Pour moi ces oiseaux effaroucheurs sont très efficaces. Je n’ai plus de pigeons et de pies sur mon balcon.
