I live on a farm and cluster flies gather in our windows every fall. I hang these strips in the windows and the flies bump into it as they fly around--one bump and they're caught. It doesn't catch all flies--and it rarely catches Asian beetles, unfortunately--but it catches most of them. It's safe--much better than spraying pesticides--and it doesn't use energy. Perfect for my needs. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because sometimes when you pull one out of the tube the fly paper tears off--then it's useless unless you can tape it back together.
I determined that my time would be better spent doing other things so I purchased the Black Flag TAT Fly Paper. It's easy to use, does it job of attracting the pests and making sure they do not further buzz anybody in the house. This product is a wise choice for me.

Ambient Weather AW-YG637S Admiral Fitzroy Storm Glass
Ambient Weather AW-YG637S Admiral Fitzroy Storm Glass
Brand Ambient Weather
Product Features
* Some people have proposed that surface interactions between the glass wall of the storm glass and the liquid contents account for the crystals. Explanations sometimes include effects of electricity or quantum tunneling across the glass.
* Includes one year warranty from Ambient Weather.
* How this storm glass really works is a mystery, but it is believed that electromagnetic changes in weather patterns activate crystals inside (sealed-glass chamber fills with crystals when air pressure decreases). Famed meteorologist Admiral Fitzroy used a storm glass in 1750 on a historic voyage with Charles Darwin.
* A storm glass works on the premise that temperature and pressure affect solubility, sometimes resulting in clear liquid; other times causing precipitants to form. However, the method by which this works is not fully understood. Although it is well-established that temperature affects solubility, some studies have simultaneously observed several different storm glasses forming similar crystal patterns at different temperatures. In addition, sealed glasses are not exposed to atmospheric pressure changes and do not react to the pressure variations associated with weather systems.
Product Description
A cloudy glass with small stars indicates thunderstorms.
If the liquid contains small stars on sunny winter days, then snow is coming.
If there are large flakes throughout the liquid, it will be overcast in temperate seasons or snowy in the winter.
If there are crystals at the bottom, this indicates frost.
If there are threads near the top, it will be windy.
During the historic voyage, FitzRoy carefully documented how the storm glass would predict the weather:
If the liquid in the glass is clear, the weather will be bright and clear.
If the liquid is cloudy, the weather will be cloudy as well, perhaps with precipitation.
If there are small dots in the liquid, humid or foggy weather can be expected.

It sometimes had a tendency to cloud-over (not one of its normal processes) and remain but eventually it would clear back up again.
It is exactly what I ordered and I cannot wait to see it in action. It's a great conversation piece!
I even brought in the "recipe" and made them in Chemistry class! Though it was hard to seal it. My Chemistry professor never heard of them!

* 21-inch clearing width, 13-Inch intake height
* 8-inch diameter auger/impeller
* 7-inch x 2-inch wheels
* Non-CARB Compliant/Not for sale in California
Product Description
Efficiently Clears Snow without Damaging Your Driveway
For maximum snow intake, the PR621ES has a 21-inch clearing width and a composite scraper bar, which helps fully clear away snow and prevent damage to your driveway. Snow is displaced through a 13-inch-tall chute, which features a smooth-ratcheting design for easy direction adjustments.
Durably Constructed to Handle Tough Winters
Designed to handle whatever winter throws at it, the PR621ES features a fully welded steel frame that is E-dip painted for complete protection.
Ergonomic Snow Thrower Has Largest Engine in Its Class
With 208 cc cylinder displacement, the single-stage PR621ES Snow Thrower has the largest engine in its class. Producing 9 pounds-foot, the four-cycle OHV engine is fully enclosed within the thrower body for protection and easy access for cleaning.
Despite its large engine size, the PR621ES is easy for just about anyone to use. This gasoline-powered thrower weighs 70 pounds and features an ergonomic steering handle and electric start push button for easy starting and maneuvering.
The Poulan Pro PR621ES Snow Thrower will run for up one hour and forty-five minutes on a single tank of gas.
Product Details
The 13-Inch intake height single-stage snow thrower is lightweight and maneuverable - and features a reliable 4-cycle engine. Why shovel when you can use a light weight snow thrower to clear all your snow on your sidewalk or drive way? Electric start - no more pulling a recoil in cold weather. Other features include a manual remote deflector and 8-Inch x 2-Inch wheels.
The Poulan Pro 208cc single stage 21-Inch electric start snow thrower has built in a lot of snow-clearing capacity into a compact, easy-to-handle unit.

Fantastic job Poulan! Who would think a single stage could do so much! This unit blows away the Toro and Yard machines units that sell for $100 more at Home. This snow thrower has a few bugs to work out. the biggest complaint I have with this machine is that it throws snow back on the operator. it's handle is too high making this snow thrower difficult to handle. on the plus side, it is easy to start thanks to the electric start on it.
There's nothing on the market that pushes through as deep snow as this does with only a single stage. It starts on the first pull every time and never slows down, even though the heaviest wet snow. I filled mine with Royal Purple 10w30 and haven't regretted it. I'm not one to use the factory fill when there are drastically superior synthetics available. My only gripe is the lack of inclusion of a cable for electric starting, but I've yet to even need to try it since it starts on the first pull every single time regardless of the temperature.

This vendor will send you Generac 070185F (not "B") filters. The F filters are 3/4" longer than the B filters; otherwise, they are identical. It says on the filter that they are 30% larger for more filter capacity. Since they are OEM quality, i.e., Generac brand, a longer filter is a welcome improvement. Filters arrived 3 days after ordering them. This can be a hard to find item and these folks have them in stock ready to ship. Many thanks for your prompt professional service.

Contech CRO101 Scarecrow Motion Activated Sprinkler
Contech CRO101 Scarecrow Motion Activated Sprinkler
Brand Contech
Product Features
* Contech Electronics scarecrow motion-activated sprinkler for humane animal deterrence
* Scarecrow detects and sprays animals in a 1000-square-foot area day and night
* Lightweight plastic shaft; metal sprinkler head
* Includes sprinkler mount and motion detector; 9-volt battery not included
* 2-year limited warranty; measures 17-inch
Product Description
Safe, Humane Deterrent Helps Protect Your Garden
A huge amount of time and energy goes into keeping your yard and garden looking great, so it's only natural that you want to protect them from damage caused by hungry wildlife or local dogs and cats. But there are lots of reasons to avoid chemical deterrents, traps, and hazardous electric fences.
Whether you're a dedicated organic vegetable gardener or a parent looking out for the health of children and pets that play in your yard, you'll appreciate the simple, innovative, and effective water-based concept behind the Scarecrow Motion-Activated Sprinkler. It's also a great choice for neighborhoods where fences are prohibited and for people who consider wire fences and other visual barriers unappealing.
When the ScareCrow detects an animal it instantly releases a short but startling burst of water. The sudden spray of water and the movement and noise of the sprinkler scares animals away. Animals associate this negative experience with the area and avoid your yard in the future.

Product Dimensions: 12.6 x 7.3 x 3.6 inches ; 1.4 pounds

That was very helpful. We have a similar deer problem. The ultra sonic deer devices did not help (hit distance too small / need many to form a blockade). A 4 foot fence did not help. Motion sensing flood lights do startle them but do not scare them away. Covering the plants with plant protector bags does work but since we have more than 10 plants to cover this is a lot of work and last night since it was raining all day they decided to show up 4 hours early at around 7:30 PM instead of 11:30 so they were able to take down the last remaining hosta buds.
I work from home quite often and sit close to our plantings and have noticed deer staring at our plants from the neighbors yard at noon, that's right noon. I'm not sure how often they do this but it only takes a few visits to wipe out the plants. So I feel like our scarecrow needs to be on around the clock. We have sidewalks, and neighbors in their yards to contend with, so we've tried to fine tune the sensitivity and sprinkler range. However, it seems like white, flat sided service trucks set this thing off regardless of the sensitivity. Mail trucks, garbage trucks, street sweeper, etc will set this off from a great distance, at the same setting a person would have to be very close to trigger it.
