Would it keep raccoons out of my pond?

yes it would keep raccoons out you would have to put the wires so they could not crawl under it and put one so they could not crawl over it

Absolutely! It's a powerful device but you must have a wire(s) close enough, low enough, or high enough for the intruders to come in contact with if they're of the mind to get into your pond. Look up on youtube how to install an e-fence. Very easy! It's the only (and I mean ONLY) thing that's ever kept deer out of my garden.

I cant say for sure, but if I were a gambling man, I would bet heavy on it. It keeps mys dogs out of my garden and my horses in temporay corrals. Just be sure that you run two wires close to the ground so that the nose will touch one of them when he tries to cross into the water. I hope this helps. Ken

I doubt it. Raccoons are a unique problem in that they seem to be very smart. I was not able to keep them out of my orchard of apple trees even though I had multiple strands of electric fence wire starting just above the ground and going up to a couple of feet above the ground. I have no idea how they managed to keep getting in but they did and got or ruined about 50% of my apple crop.

Right now I am only using it to store ice melt; but I do not have raccoon in the area..... just squirrels :)

Now having one winter behind, my answer to the raccoons is "no" it does not deter them. They sit on the rail, grab hold of arm, swing it toward them. Have ended up taking the feeder in at dark EVERY nite. Found is does not freeze at 0 temp...arm moves freely.

We never used it for that purpose so I don't really know. We have seen a raccoon that went after birdfeeders and trash cans, but I never thought to spray for that purpose. I think a strong mint oder repels raccoons. This product has a light mint scent so it might be worth a try, but I can't really say it would work as well as it has for deer damaging plants in our yard.

Possibly. It works in short bursts to scare away other animals. I'm cureous how you would secure it to your roof along with the attached hose, but let me know how it works!

It will work fine, but because it uses a water hose to create the vacuum effect, you might have to remove some water from your pond after you vacuum.

if you keep it set to use the collar tags for the cats then the only way the raccoon can get in is to piggy back the cat so I would say yes

It did not help to get rid of opassom previously. This time I used it to help my male dog to mark only in the back yard. It did not help eather. Sorry could not help you with raccoon. It sounds that it may work. Good luck.

I do not think so; those raccoons are pretty clever. The "lock" is a lift and release mechanism which I think they could get.

I think it will keep raccoons out, providing that they don't "learn" how to work the mechanisms. It has a two part opening sequence, a little complicated for raccoons.

absolutely! We used it around the koi pond to keep out racoons, they were "buzzed" twice and now they never come back. Great training tool.

I use it to cover the top of my walkout dog run. I pull it tight and stake it. there is a little sag but not that much. I think it might also depend upon how large your pond is. I have tried lighter netting and found it did not stake as well. the lighter netting kept tearing where it was staked.

Absolutely, this keeps deer out of our yard. Be careful with neighbors pets or your own pets This works great Crank it up on settings initially and use A/C power cord It will keep squirrels away from feeder as well

The air holes on the sides are too small for rodents to get through, but I suppose they could chew into the bin. I have found raccoon prints on the sides several times so I know it keeps them out.

Yes unless you put a collar on a raccoon you will be fine. The door timer can be adjusted and once the animal with the collar goes through the door closes immediately and anything else that tries to come through, the door will close down on them deterring them from entering.

I would think if it can repel a bear it wouldn't have a problem repelling a raccoon.

The diameter of the pole is 2", the baffle's widest part on top is 8" and it narrows down to about 4" on the bottom. I don't see why the baffle wouldn't stop raccoons as they are climbers rather than squirrels (jumpers) The baffle would throw them off. But there are some really smart critters out there so I wouldn't 100% guarantee a raccoon couldn't figure out how to get above the baffle but I would think it would be difficult.
