CLEANRTH TSBR620 Super Advanced Sonic & Ultrasonic Bird Repeller – Includes Triple Scan Technology

I normally don't write reviews but I felt the need to write one about this product. I've had it for about 2 weeks now and it's been working great! We had a problem with birds in a specific area of our backyard/pool where they would gather and crap all of our pool/spa area. Since I installed this thing, it starts going off and the birds fly away. It seems less and less birds even try to drink water out of the pool these days. The amount of bird crap everywhere has dropped a considerable amount too. Not completely gone yet, but much much better. I gave it 5 starts because I don't know how much better they could have done with this product, but a few things to consider when buying it. You have the option to use batteries or electrical power. Obviously the long term electrical would be better to use. But depending on where you may need to place the unit, it may be a bit of a chore to get power there (again, not the sellers problem, its mine). You could of course use batteries and change them out when needed if its too much trouble to run the electrical. I ended up buying a small LCD TV mount and attaching the device to it, then mounting the TV mount to a pergola near the trouble area. Then I ran an electrical wire and put the unit on a outdoor wifi switch, so I could turn it on and off as need from my smart phone. Few reasons for that, 1 if you have dogs it will go off when the dogs or people walk by, which could be annoying. The wifi outlet I got allows me to turn it off at sunset and on at sunrise automatically, so it won't annoying the neighbors at night. 2, in my situation, its near my pool so obviously don't want it going off while we are using the pool, so thats why the wifi/electrical option was the best for me. You have to actually open the unit up to turn it off, there isn't a really accessible on/off switch. So if you need to turn it on and off often, I would go with the electrical power option. So just keep that in mind, but the unit works great and does what its supposed to do.

Absolutely ineffective against birds. Highly effective against humans. After three months of use using a variety of settings and locations, this simply does not work. I really regret this purchase and sticking with it long enough to be past a product return timeline. If I was better at taking pictures, the picture of the birds happily sitting on top of the device with lights flashing and loud tones going off would be posted with this review. This is a lot of money for something that is ineffective in every way.

A month ago I was going to give this one star because it didn't seem to be working at first. We have been in our house for 14 years and have a covered patio on the back of the house. We have never had birds until this year. They were pooping everywhere, all over the couches and cushions. First I got some of the reflective tape and put it EVERYWHERE. No change...then we tried an owl, next a silhoutte of a bird and a wind chime. Still nothing...birds, every day, pooping everywhere. I decided to try this device. At first, no real impact. And when I was giving up hope and ready to buy a shotgun to shoot up the trees, I decided to relocate the device. Amazing! No more birds for over a month now! We went away on vacation and came home to clean cushions and patio! If you have trouble with this device at first, I recommend trying some different locations. We have a small dog and my wife sits on the covered patio every morning....she barely notices this at all. I would highly recommend this device!

This seems to be working, there is much less bird mess around my pool since setting this up. Blackbirds and robins don’t seem to like it, but I have a dove who doesn’t seem as bothered by it. I had to set it on the medium setting, on high I imagine the neighbors would be unhappy, it was pretty loud and obnoxious. Happy with the outcome of this product.

Don't waste your money if you have a problem with barn swallows. I have problems with barn swallows nesting and roosting on my front porch; it's an ideal spot for their kind of nest. I installed the device as soon as I received it; however, I believe I installed it too high because it didn't detect the birds when they flew under the porch entry so I moved it. I had the setting on ultra-sonic so we couldn't hear it. That didn't seem to work as the birds just ignored it. I changed the settings to be more sensitive and adjusted the sound setting to audible. That didn't work either. I caught a bird resting on top of the device. I adjusted it again to be louder and set the sensitivity as high as it would go. This morning I had to knock down the beginnings of a nest right beside the device!

Overall I was impressed with Cleanrth pest repeler. It can be plugged in and used close to the house or batteries may be placed by opening the back if you need to use it far from a electrical plug. I tried both, first just off the back porch pointed at a patch of trees just behind where I park the cars. It seems that on the way to their favorite perch they like to dive bomb my auto's. It was a matter of getting rid of the birds or getting rid of the shade trees. I like the trees for their shade so was not cutting them down. I do like the song birds also, I didn't wish any harm on them just needed them to pick another spot away from my auto's. That is where this handy device came in. As I stated first just off the back porch plugged in and pointed directly at the are, about 85 feet away. It took a little adjusting but this was made easy with the directions for the controls which you will find next to battery compartment by removing back panel. The unit comes with easy to read and understand directions and suggestions. After some tweaking it seemed to work okay but not to impressive. I then put some batteries in the unit and moved it about 30-40 feet from the area and attached it to a wooden fence post which was easy with the screw notches in the back. A little more tweaking and it worked wonderfully! A few stubborn birds still wanted their favorite perch no matter how loud the noise or bright the strobe was. For the most part most of the birds have found a new favorite perch and practice range for their dive bombing. I am not sure where they went but I ran into my neighbor that lives about a block away and he was complaining about all of these birds that just showed up seemingly out of nowhere the last couple of weeks and are doing a number on his driveway. Guess what I suggested he try.

Worked great!!!

This product does not work as advertised at all. The device is doing something as I see light and hear some sounds that the device makes (not in all modes). I changed the settings multiple times and waited for several weeks for the expected results, but I still did not get them. For the last 6 months, the birds have been behaving the same way as before I installed this device - the birds fly in and eat the food that I put out for the cats. The return period is very short and as the instructions say if the device does not give the desired result, do not despair, change the settings and wait for the result. And do it again and again until you get the expected result. And then the return period may expire while you are waiting for the expected result so you will not get your money back and you will add junk to the garage.
