Hedoc 2 Pack Fake Owl Decoys to Scare Birds Away, Rotating Head Bird Deterrents, Nature Enemy Scarecrow Plastic Statues, Pest Repellent for Gardens and Patios

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I recently bought 2 Pack Fake Owl Decoys, and I'm really impressed! These owls are designed to scare birds away, and they actually work! The rotating heads give them a realistic touch, making them seem more lifelike.I placed them in my garden, and I noticed a significant drop in the number of birds hanging around. Plus, they look pretty cool as outdoor decor! If you’re looking for a simple, effective way to keep birds away, these decoys are definitely worth it!

Durable decoys work to chase the birds away! I have one on my front porch and back porch. I was sick of getting bird poop on my porch furniture.There’s a hole on the bottom where you can add in sand or some rocks to weigh it down a little bit. I added just a few pebbles. They have not blown away in the storms and rain. My grandkids also like to play with it a little bit, making its head bobble around. This wise old owl even with stands inquisitive little hands.!

Got these to help keep the annoying Woodpecker off my metal chimney cap. So far it has only returned once. It was coming every morning before 7:00am. I would say that’s a win! It was making me CRAZY! Happy I purchased them. They are slightly smaller than I thought they would be. I have a pole in one and have it attached to the top of my fence with zip ties to give it some height (and it makes it VERY noticeable). Probably keeps them out of my neighbors yard too.

One of the owls would not move in the wind, only by hand. I returned/exchanged and had the same result with the replacement. That said, my owls must have invited the squirrels over for a party because they ate tomatoes right in front of it, and that's with me moving them around everyday! I do have a picture with a game cam of the squirrel with the tomato in his mouth but it was too grainy to post after zooming in...I'm giving 3 stars because they do look really good and I'm not having issues with birds, but then we never really have. I filled my owls with decomposed granite and they are pretty sturdy - did not get knocked over in 50+ mph storm winds but the squirrels did knock one of them off the fence at some point running past or over it.I just don't get it. We have hickory nuts everywhere. A 250B gallon lake across the street. I even put out a dog bowl with water for the deer that these guys could have but they seem to like my tomatoes more than anything and I was really hoping the owls would work. Only the sight of humans or dogs seem to scare them off.

We bought these for the vegetable garden on the side of our house. We’ve got one set up at each end. They’re a good size, and realistic looking. We like them a lot. Hope the critters do not.

These owl decoys work great for keeping squirrels away! I placed them near my bird feeders and garden, and they’ve really helped reduce squirrel activity. The eyes are very realistic and the head movers add extra motion, making them look even more lifelike. That small movement really makes a difference! The sound quality is also decent—it gives off subtle, natural noises that help scare off pests without being too loud or annoying. The owls are lightweight but surprisingly stable, especially if you fill the base or secure them properly. Overall, a great, natural-looking and effective solution for squirrel problems.

So 2 owls, each one gets one star. Really no problem with the build quality. For the price they are really good looking owls, but they just didn't work. Ok they worked for about 2 hours, after which a bird flew right next to the owl and started building a nest. "Oh hi owl, I'm just going to put this nest right next to your foot here if you don't mind".Now to be fair I am in a really difficult spot here in the desert Southwest US. There just aren't any trees around so these birds are totally desperate to nest anywhere they can find, usually houses and other structures unfortunately. I believe we are dealing with mainly finches and sparrows here. I have never found decoys of any kind to be effective so I am not really surprised and the owls are certainly not expensive so I decided to give it a shot honestly because nothing works here....at all!. I got these owls because they were just tall enough to fit underneath this eave we have where the birds have a protected spot right on top of this shade casing that's mounted there.So perhaps you have a different situation. Not likely you will find anything else for that price that's going to work. If you do please let me know!! Again, the quality and everything else about the product is good but they just didn't work in my case.

I was a little skeptical, but these guys really worked. I bought 4 and filled them with sand. I had a problem with bird dropping all over my front deck. These plastic owls have helped resolve the issue. It has cut down the mess by about 90 percent. They get the job done.
