CatStop Ultrasonic Cat Repellent by Contech ES-CAT-001

Use the Cat Stop Ultrasonic Repellent for To Keep Stray Cats Out of Your Yard

If feral cats use your garden as a litter box, install the Contech ultrasonic cat repeller. Motion activated, the Catstop uses a high decibel alarm that startles the cats to leave while not disturbing the peace.

Place the Cat Stop facing the area you want to protect. An animal entering the area sets off the built-in motion sensor. The ultrasonic alarm is from 21-25 kHz. Humans hear sounds between 2 kHz and 20 kHz so this rarely disturbs people. Note: Most dogs hear at frequencies between 40 kHz to 100kHz.

Cat Stop operates for about nine months on one standard 9 volt battery. (Battery life estimate is based upon 4900 activations over 245 days at an average of 20 per day.)

The CatStop protects about 330 square feet (20 feet or 6m in front of the unit in an 80 degree arc). There are no controls or adjustments. Install the battery. Position it. Turn it on.

The CatStop is an effective cat deterrent because:

A powerful burst of ultrasonic sound startles the cat.
The cat equates the location with the unpleasant sound.
The cat avoids the location in the future.
Unlike many pest deterrents that operate continuously, the CatStop unit waits for the animal to come into range before activating. This creates a greater startle effect.
