Ferel cats hide near my bird feeder and kill the birds. Will this deter the cats and not bother the birds?

Absolutely, this keeps deer out of our yard. Be careful with neighbors pets or your own petsThis works greatCrank it up on settings initially and use A/C power cord It will keep squirrels away from feeder as well

It doesn't affect the birds...I use minds to warn off rabbits and squirrels...the birds still come within the area where the boxes covers...

I used this in my garage to keep ferel cats out. It worked very well for that. Once the cats were out I am working on bats in my attic, it seems to work for this also. Time will tell I have only had it on for a week or two. The weather here has not been very warm until the last few nights, that's when the bats like to come out.

I have had feral cats for 8 years and never had problems with wildlife in any hideys that I have used......they come and eat the food but don't seem to go near the hideys.

I put thistle in this feeder. I had to take my feeders down so many starlings and grackles were hogging all the food and fighting with the other birds. I was so disappointed. I wish there was a way to deter them. I love seeing the finches. I'm not sure if the "nasty" birds will still come to this feeder or not with only thistle in it...I'm not sure if they are attracted to thistle.

I'm not really sure, my cats don't want to have anything to do with it. I was a little disappointed when I received it, it doesn't really do anything to entice.

I have smaller ones for cats and definitely they keep the ants away. they are blocked from crawling up into the dish.

I had a cat and it didn't bother her at all. I watched her for the first few days but she still snuggle up on the rug next to where it was (she had freedom to roam 3 floors so didnt have to!). Didn't seem to bother her at all. I don't know how ferrets and birds hear though.

If the birds get near the ground, it may scare them away. Any type of motion near the ground will set it off. If the bird feeder is way up high, then i wouldnt worry about it.

No. I placed it under a tree in my garden and the birds still nest in the tree. The cats are gone.

It will keep them directly off the area you attach them to like eves and pitches of your roof ...you might block a path into your home but best to fix the entrance ...or an area they jump from a tree to the roof but they are not much af a deterrent to just keep them off ...you could also put them on the tree or along the top of a fence tp block a path to your house ...but squirrels are smarter than birds if they are in your home try fox urine crystals in a stocking they hate that and they will move on ... you can put that in the crook of a tree or in the attic or hanging from a string

It takes awhile for the birds to find the feeder. I think it took about 1 week. If it's in a spot near cats/dogs, the birds will avoid it. Also, I don't know where you live, but I'm in Chicago, and with the below zero weather even the birds didn't show up.

Contact info@bugrepeller.com. This person is the developer of the device and can answer that question. I can tell you that it did not disturb my cats, and it did not reduce the number of song birds in my yard.

I have used this under my main feeder as a trap, but the birds do fling husks and seed so it is not a cure-all. I have put plastic garbage bags cut open, under the seed feeder to catch the debris and empty it at night. That works well. Keeps the rats and mice from coming in also.

No it doesn't bother domestic animals such as cats, dogs or birds. It will bother any rodent like animals such as guinea pigs, hamsters, rats or mice. Love these, they work great to keep pests out.

Hi Irene,Sadly this product did not work outside to thwart my neighbors cat who got into using my patio flower boxes. I then tried orange oil, pricey did not work. I ended up fencing these areas. A friend has your same inside problem and put tin foil down and little by little her cat is coming back to the litter box.

These will have an effect on your cats. They are extremely strong smelling and offensive to the cats. We used them to get rid of stray cats hanging out in the back yard and on the porch. The cats did not like them at all and do not hang around the premises any more; thus, I would think your own cats would try to get away from the deterrent triangles. You might try them on the exterior perimeter of your yard if that's at all possible.

Laura is correct. The unit works because the cats are frightened by the loud and unexpected sound. If left in the same location for a long period, some cats lose their fear and will ignore the unit.To make the unit effective again, put it away for a while or relocate it. Also, try combining it with an unfamiliar sensation like tin foil or saran wrap.
