FAQ:
- Can the Pestrol Solar Animal Away Elite be set to only emit control measures inaudible to humans?
For the quietest operation, set the Mode to Ultrasonic and select a Fixed Ultrasonic frequency. The sound is still audible if you are next to the unit, but from a distance it should not bother humans. It won’t be completely silent, but this setting minimises noise for people while still effectively deterring pests.

I bought to keep pigeons off the roof which is high and so finding a position (that’s accessible) that wasn’t affected by trees triggering the noise hasnt been possible.

This product works. We have been plagued with birds eating out tomatoes just as they were ripening. Was going to have to put netting around but gave this a try first. This product is working. Well worth the cost.

Quite impressed so far. I hope it can charge itself over winter. No cats or evidence of cats in my vegetable patch seen since installation. I am much happier recently.

Had a lot of swallows using our roof for daytime roosting & poo practice. The pestrol controller seems to have made them go elsewhere – great

Situated upon a tennis court & trying different locations & angles. Live bird noises not that effective & startling to any visitors, and no birds at night, so strobe bit of over-kill. So relying upon ultrasonic buzz. Not sure if the 25m range of the sensor is that effective – more like 8-10m.

This device works very well against swallows. These birds have been a nuisance on my boat for a long time but since I am using this bird repeller the decks stay clean. It’s really worth its money!

The unit was simple to set up and the rechargeable solar battery means I don’t have to worry about replacing batteries all the time. Effective against cats and rabbits in my backyard.
