Contech Electronics Scarecrow Motion-Activated Sprinkler #CRO101/CRO102
Finally a way to keep unwanted animals out of the garden and protect your yard, fruit trees, vegetables and flowers from hungry or destructive creatures. Cats, dogs, deer, rabbits, large birds, and many others. The patented Scarecrow motion-activated sprinkler is the smartest scarecrow ever invented. When it sees an intruder it instantly releases full garden hose water pressure towards the trespasser. The effect is both startling and immediate. Animals quickly get out of the area and avoid it in the future.The ScareCrow motion-activated sprinkler is constructed of durable, high-quality materials, and has been designed to provide many years of reliable service.

Using the ScareCrow is easy. Simply attach a standard garden hose to its base, set the ScareCrow in the ground in the area you want to protect, and then turn on the water. Once you switch the unit on, it is ready to go.

How does it work?
The ScareCrow uses a combination of sudden noise, unexpected movement, and a startling blast of water to create a memorable and unpleasant experience for the trespasser.
The animal immediately associates this unpleasant experience with the location, and to avoid similar surprises, learns to avoid the area. If an animal chooses to return, the ScareCrow will be waiting.
While a human may flee several steps after activating a ScareCrow, animals are typically affected to a much greater degree. In most cases they run much farther, and stay away longer. Because the unit only triggers when the animal moves, its behavior is difficult for animals to anticipate, making it a very effective deterrent.

Customer Review: Works great!!!
We purchased the scarecrow to stop the Blue Heron’s from eating our Koi fish in our pond. We tried an owl, plastic heron (moved to different locations frequently) and nothing worked. UNTILL—we purchased the scarecrow. It has been great and no fish missing. I must say my grand-kids also love it to run through and make it squirt them. Teriffic product.

Customer Review: It worked on me!!!
I use three Sarecrows to protect my garden. One morning I forgot to turn off the water. The blast from one of the “crows’ caused me to drop everything i was carrying and scamper out of the garden. it startled the tar out of me!

Only negative so far is battery life is about 1 month. I am now trying rechargeable batteries.

Customer Review: good second book…
Start with her first one, Making Concrete Garden Ornaments, then try this one to expand you skills. An excellent way to get a feel for this art form!
Customer Review: Exactly What I Was Looking For!!!
I can’t say enough how thorough Ms. Warner-Hunter’s books are - they are step-by-step, material suggested, inspirational, and illustrated (photographic)! As an artist, this book was helpful in clarifying issues I had with materials: and, as a teacher, I believe even a middle or high schooler could follow this manual. Lark books are fabulous and this one of the best!

Presto 09402 MyPod Refillable Personal Pod/Coffee Holder
Presto MyPod Refillable Coffee Holder - The Philips Senseo coffee maker uses disposable pods to make a delicious cup of coffee. But those pods can get expensive, and they don’t have every flavor and type of coffee imaginable. That’s where the Presto MyPod can help! It replaces your Senseo’s pod holder, allowing you to use your own ground coffee. Simply pour the coffee into the MyPod, put on the compacting cover, and insert it into the Senseo!

Customer Review: This works, but not as well as the coffee duck
I purchased my presto refillable pod/coffee holder at Wal-Mart. It does work, but there are two things that you must know about this.

This will make a large cup of coffee when you push the single cup button on your Senseo.

This will not froth the coffee the way other products such as the ‘Coffee Duck’ and ‘Ecopad’ do.

This will do the job, but I recommend the other products that I just mentioned.

Customer Review: MyPod it is
Need to experiment to get it right, sometimes cups overflow, but all in all a good product and it does cut the cost of coffee pods. Be sure to order extra filters!

Customer Review: be careful
Living on a small urgan lot, we bought a couple of these to grow more tomato plants than we are able to the traditional way. Although the upside down plants are growing right next to the plants in soil, they are only about 1/4 as large and have produced only minimal small fruit. They are probably getting too much direct sunlight. Although this is normally not a problem, the roots are getting baked. They need to be generously watered every day. If this is your only option for space to grow tomatoes, it can work OK with the right placement and TLC. If you have room to grow tomatoes the traditional way, this is not the best option.
