Bird-X Yard Gard Ultrasonic Predator Control

The device operates at a frequency range of 15-25 kHz. While most adults cannot hear these high-frequency sounds, children and some pets, such as dogs or cats, may be able to detect them. If you notice your pets reacting to the unit, you can adjust the frequency setting to a range that is less noticeable.

The unit features a built-in solar panel that charges the internal batteries during the day. This allows for continuous operation even when the sun goes down, as the device draws power from the rechargeable AA batteries.

Yes, the Yard Gard is designed with a weather-resistant housing specifically for outdoor use. It is built to withstand standard environmental conditions, though it is best to ensure the solar panel remains clear of heavy snow or debris buildup to maintain charging efficiency.

The motion sensor has a detection range of 25 feet by 50 feet. For the best results, place the unit on the included stake facing the area where you see the most animal activity, ensuring there are no large obstacles like thick bushes or walls blocking the sensor's line of sight.

It is highly effective against common garden pests like deer, raccoons, skunks, rabbits, and feral cats. Because different animals react to different frequencies, the adjustable dial allows you to fine-tune the sound to better target the specific nuisance animal in your yard.

The unit comes with a stake for easy ground mounting, which is ideal for lawns and gardens. If you need to mount it elsewhere, such as on a fence or wall, you can remove the stake and use the mounting points on the back of the unit.
