Product Description
Get a pest deterrent and burglar alarm in one! The YardContro electronic yard fence helps keep outdoor spaces free from unwanted pests or trespassers by creating an undetectable, 360 degree radar zone covering an approximately 30 ft. (700 sq. ft.) area. When the built-in motion sensor detects an intrusion, it responds by emitting a high-frequency 120dB sound blast and flashing a powerful strobe light. A selector switch lets you choose how it responds. To fend off dogs, cats and other wild animals, use the ultrasonic mode, which emits an alarm that's bothersome to animals, but inaudible to humans. To scare away human trespassers or would-be thieves, use the standard mode that everyone can hear. The YardContro features weatherproof design for indoor or outdoor use, even in wet weather. Runs on 4 "D" batteries for up to 2,000 10-second sound releases (batteries not included). Includes brackets for easy mounting to walls, fences, trees or posts. Manufacturer's part number YC12.

Good protection against otters September 30, 2008
Del S. (Philadelphia)
This works well to keep otters off of docks and out of boats. Unfortunately, they only seem to last about one year. I have had otters poop all over a boat and dock and chew up boat seats. It's worth the price, for sure.
Lentek YardContro-Awful !!! September 19, 2007
Fermoyle Insurance Ricky Fermoyle (new hamoshire)
does not work as advertised..........the first 2 I ordered needed to be returned.......one didn't work at all and the other only worked if a moving object came with 6-8 inches !!! the 2 replacments were somewhat better....but still activate only if a moving object comes with 3-4 feet at best !!! A far cry form the "Up to 15 Feet" that Lentek advertises.
Very disappointed and would consider paying more money to another company that provided a product that actually works !!! Ricky Fermoyle
Pest Control September 17, 2007
Michael D. Hesford (Davie, FL USA)
I wanted a product that would dissuade small animals from invading my pool and leaving deposits. This product, although stating that it had variable sensibility - close or up to 15 feet, and a frequency from audible to way high above what the human ear can hear, did not perform as described. Wherever I walked in front of the device, and at whatever sensitivy, it registered until I was right in front, then failed to respond. Any other crittur in the vicinity was not put off by a sound that on high frequency, I could always hear. In fact whatever creature was leaving deposits did so right in front of the device. Needless to say I was not impressed.
Does not perform as advertised August 19, 2007

I wish I had read these reviews before I purchased 2 units. When you get the unit, the documentation packed inside clearly states that the range is 15 feet. Check the advertisement here and note it leads you to believe the range is 30 feet. What's more...I totally agree with several of the reviewers here who have stated that it's more like 5 feet. Also, we found that it triggers on things like spinklers and rain...that means you have a repeated and annoying activation...aside from wearing down the batteries.
The very best thing about this whole deal was that the seller was "As-seen-on-TV". They were very understanding and not happy about the product. They provided a full refund.
The manufacturer completed ignored my concerns. I checked their web site and found that they were inconsistent in describing the coverage sometimes as a 30-foot circle, and elsewhere as a 360-degree, 30-foot radius.
