Does this also ward off other animals (squirrels, rabbits, etc)?

Since all that the Deer Chaser is, is an audio motion detector with a light that comes on, your guess is as good as mine. I use two, one on each side of my house and, so far, I have not had another coyote in my back yard in the last year. Although you can make it as loud as you want, it only comes on for ten seconds at a time.

I have no idea; but it works on deer, that's for sure. Wished it worked on moles and voles, rats and mice.

We used it for squirrels at a bird feeder and it was totally ineffective, I doubt that it would work any better to keep dogs from peeing on a bush

Since squirrels like to "hide" a lot, I always push the bait station under something to conceal it and put a piece of wood or other heavy object over the top to provide further "cover" to the creature while he dines. Although I have lots of rabbits, I've never seen one pull the bait station out of my hidden spot.

Yes but you need to mount it higher and point the sensor more to the ground. It gets rid of possums n squirrels as well

My experience says it won't keep anything away. The deer stroll right up and eat my fuchsias. The squirrels still dig holes in my garden and planters. As for birds, they still empty the bird feeder three feet away from the unit.

No, it seemed to work for a while, but the animals got used to it. you need a ton of it and have to reapply constantly. I have quit using this product. I bought those high frequency sound tubes you stick down into the ground. They emit what sounds like a distress call and sends the critters in the other direction. They aren't foolproof, but better than anything else I have ever used for squirrels, moles etc. I only saw 1 squirrel in my yard last summer. Hope this helps.

I got the product to keep feral cats off my porch. It does work for that if I spray every day. Not sure about rabbits but it's worth a try.

It hasn't kept anything out of anywhere for me. I wouldn't waste the money on it. I bought mine to try and keep ducks out of my swimming pool and I think they laugh at it. The Squirrels just run right by it. Maybe my squirrels are not smart enough to know what it is?

it doesn't... I checked it with almost any animal from Chicken to Bunnies... Squirlls and Dogs - NO ANIMAL seems to be really affected by it. My dog was initially scared of it but once he learned it does nothing - he comes there all the time... poops and leave... it's USELESS !! do NOT BUY ! I have 3 and they are just for show... a converstaion starter... that's about it

The Mouse Magic package mentions its effective against rats and mice due to their dislike of the natural ingredients, it repels, not kills them. I think the only way you can rid your property of squirrels is to cut off their food supply - nuts.

Hi JT, I don't have rabbits in my area (or they have never been an issue), I use it to keep away the neighborhood cats who were using my yard as a litter box. I use the setting for cats, (mid-range) and it has been working really well, I am very pleased and can recommend the strobe Yard Sentinel for the same situation :)

From experience, we know it IS effective for deer and rabbits. Don't know about squirrels. Might be a question for the manufacturer. We like it because it doesn't harm any animals but is effective for deer, which is our problem here.

The Pest-a-Cator works through the wiring in the walls, as you probably know. As long as your RV is hooked up to electricity of some kind, I think the it would help deter mice and rats. I really don't know if it discourages other animals like squirrels, raccoons, etc. We had a problem with mice in our home, installed 2 of these and haven't seen mice in months; we keep them plugged in "just in case". Good luck!

Not particularly squirrel proof but does a great job keeping away hornets and wasps. If you hang it from a thin diameter shepards hook and spray that with silicon it will make it very tough for the squirrels to get at it.

I do not have any chipmunks around but I believe it would keep those out also, if not placing a squirrel guard around the pole should work.

No, not on squirrels. I bought this to use on gophers but discovered that instead of gophers, I had moles. It doesn't work on moles.

I bought it to scare squirrels from our Mango trees. It did not work for squirrels at all. Squirrels would sit right in front of it with one of my mangos. I would click the remote to sound the alarm and the squirrels just kept chomping..., no effect at all. Also, device kept sounding off when a little wind made some leaves move (even on least sensative setting). It absolutely does not work on squirrels. I cannot say it will work on birds but, based on how well it works on squirrels, I have my doubts.
