How & Why it Works
CatStop® How & Why it Works
The
CatStop is easy to use. Simply install a 9-volt battery and then place the unit
in your garden, with an unobstructed view of the area you want to protect. There
are no controls or adjustments. The built-in motion sensor detects any cats entering
the area and emits a piercing, high-decibel alarm that startles the cat and frightens
it away. Since the sound is ultrasonic, you and your neighbors cannot hear it.
The CatStop is an effective cat deterrent for several reasons
-
a powerful burst of ultrasonic sound startles the cat
-
the cat equates the location with the unpleasant occurrence
-
the cat avoids the location in the future
- unlike pest deterrents that operate continuously, the CatStop unit waits for the
animal to come into its range before activating, making the function unpredictable
for the cat, and therefore more effective.
