A pack of raccoons is called a gaze.
A group of skunks is called a surfeit.
Quite the variety of wildlife comes into your yard
Awe I love all of your wildlife!
Sold! I'm buying some of these right now. Coyotes have been passing thru my yard and pooping.
Yeah as you can see I have major animal problem which is why I bought one. I'm happy with mine.
@@many-points I purchased two from Amazon and they arrived today.
GET SOME Coyote! Lol
Turns out skunks don't like bidets.... Who knew that spraying water was the universal animal deterrent.
Ultimately I went the 5 pounds of cayenne pepper route under my shed every month. It works but now I sneeze every time I open the door.
Nice, glad you found something that worked.
Just ordered this yesterday. We have a neighbor’s cat that keeps killing the birds we feed. They will not keep their cat home and I will not hurt any animals, so we will give this a shot or few to let the cat know it doesn’t live in our yard.
FYI, a family of raccoons is called a “Dumpster”.
I'm looking into trying this to keep my chickens out of my flower bed and off my porch.
Might work well. Depends on how much chickens dislike being sprayed by water.
Just bought this for a raccoon destroying my pool vacuum. Crossing fingers it works
Good luck! It's worked wonders for us. Water seems to be a fairly universal animal repellent.
How close does the movement have to be activated? I'd like to cover a large area.
In my experience:
For a large animal about 20-30 feet. For a small animal in my experience they end up being closer before activation like 0-15 feet.
I've got cruddy water pressure and it will be a year or so until I can replace pipes. Do you think this will work on low pressure still?
I think you need good water pressure for it to work well so it might not be as effective.
You posted this 2 years ago...so hope you see this request to do an update if anything has changed, good or bad. I ask because I'm getting one delivered tomorrow (5/4/24). I bookmarked your video to refer to it as you explained the parts of the sprinkler and what they do. I want to address whatever is digging holes in my grass...many small holes. I know squirrels are during the day but is a skunk coming a night? Hope this scares off the squirrels at least!!! Thanks for your video!!
I might do an update video sometime if I get a chance, but in the meantime - it's still working good! The foxes are easy to keep at bay (they HATE the sprinkler) but the skunk was super persistent and so I ended up putting a product "Dig Defence" around the perimeter of the shed because even though the skunk kept getting sprayed he/she kept coming back. Ultimately it was a combination of the Yard Enforcer and the dig defense and I'm happy to report I have zero animals living under my shed.
I don't have a squirrel problem, so not sure how well it will work on squirrels but I wish you the best of luck!
Is there any of these sprinkler systems that can be setup using a 5 gallon pail of water instead of having it connected to the hose system?
Not that I'm aware of. All kinds that I researched that I know of require a source of pressure (normal house pressure) that the bucket wouldn't be able to provide without some sort of a pump.
Ponga la cubeta de agua en altura y eso debería ser suficiente
There are 4 skunks. Slow it down to 0.25 speed and at 2:24 to 2:25 it's easy to see.
Looked like three skunks. An I'm sold on the yard enforcer! Have neighbors who let their dogs out an they have been shitting in my front yard, this should scare them away
Yeah it's awesome. We went from a family of foxes living under our shed in one night to zero foxes the next night. They hate the yard enforcer and haven't been back. Should work great for dogs.
Have you seen this actually working on raccoons? I spent all summer trying to keep them out of my small pool and nothing I did deterred them, not even leaping out of my house yelling at them like a maniac. Pretty sure I freaked the neighbors out more than the raccoons.
Yup, definitely works on raccoons too!
@@many-points Also I don't know if this is correct, but I call a family of raccoons like that a gang :D
@@aliciaaltair Haha yeah I have no idea what's it's called but there were a lot of them.
Cheyenne pepper
I have new neighbors that decided to feed anything and everything and leave dishes of cat food out in their backyard.
My backyard looks like a minefield of poops. It's not only the flies and smell, it's the bacteria entering my backyard.
I tried twice to talk to them, and they just upped the food supply. Just bought the Orbit and I'm going to hook it up today because, frankly, I've had it. Does it work on humans? Lol.......because I'm trying to get to the root of the problem. The 3rd time over there, I wasn't very nice at all.
Haha yes it works on humans as well. Sometimes I've forgotten it's on an it's surprised me. Also very effective on cats, I have a couple videos of them getting sprayed.
Call cat rescue groups and the humane society and see if they'll come out and set traps for the cats. You might have to drive them in once they're trapped but it will have an impact on the population. In many places it's illegal to free feed outside like that, so call animal control and see what they have to say. Maybe a couple tickets will change her tune.
Would this work on Groundhogs?
Not sure, depends on how much time it spends above ground I guess. Groundhogs are a little smaller than anything I've sprayed with mine but in theory if it walks in front of it (above ground) it should scare it. But it might just scare it back underground so maybe better to trap it.
Is there an attachment that can kill Elk as they come into my fields?
Haha, no not that I am aware of
Get a guard grizzly bear
@@normmackey8019 There you go
Water won't leak?
I've had mine about a year and no leaks, no drips.
A Karen of raccoons.... Sounds great
Haha
Does it run the water bill having to leave faucet for hose on all the time? Or does it create pressure on hose with water sitting waiting to spray? Thanks for help in advance!! Btw….it’s animal kingdom at your home 🤣
Haha yes we have get many animals. So yes there is always pressure in the hose, but no water sprays unless there is motion. So if there are no animals there should not be any impact to the water bill, unless you have a leaky hose or spigot.
The sensor seems kind of weak, way too close before spray triggered...
Yeah, it does have a harder time picking up small animals. It is excellent at detecting human size animals (e.g. deer) at distance though.
Is your water on 24/7 .I'm confused.
Yup, the hose is always on, so the sprinkler always has pressure.
Hmm, I’m wondering if I can attach that to the roof of my chicken coop to deter hawks
Perhaps, but then you'd have to run a hose up to the roof which could be a pain.
Or just seal off the shed. Thanks for great video!
Haha yes great tip. I did put anti-dig stuff (dig-defence brand) around the shed after I evicted all the animals. Ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
Great video! I work for Orbit as a digital marketer and would love your permission to use some of your footage as a demonstration in one of our videos. Hit me back if you're interested!

What is the difference between the Yard and Orbit Enforcer units ? One is $20 more , but what does it do differently ? Thank you very much
@@IslandDigital From what I understand the main difference is that the "yard enforcer" has two additional hose connection points so you can add additional controlled downstream sprinklers (yard enforcer sends water to the downstream sprinklers when activated).
The "enforcer" only controls itself and does not have the ability to control when water is sent to additional sprinklers.
If you only need one sprinkler to cover the needed area the "enforcer" would be the cheaper option.
Would this system only detect animals, or it will water me if I pass in front of it?
It will detect you and spray you as well. It doesn't have the ability to distinguish between humans or pests. So to turn it off you have to sneak up behind it to avoid getting sprayed.
Just order one. For the stupid ground squirrels destroying my garden. They just destroy .no building no helping just eat and destroy!
Good luck, ground squirrels are the worst.
