Hornet works
Posted by Mike on 1st Oct 2024
I have had the hornet on my vehicle for years. It really does work. I have one on my motorcycle also. Deer come to the road edge, see (hear) you coming, and take off. I have seen it work many times. The only time I have seen it fail is with fawns. I have seen mom take off, the a bit later the fawns may walk out in the road looking for her.

Turned around an elk on Monarch Pass
Posted by dale lee on 2nd Apr 2024
I was driving home in my RV over Monarch Pass, Colorado. Heading down the pass at 20. The road had icy patches from a recent snowstorm. I saw an elk run up the hill to the guardrail, ready to jump over and cross the road in front of me. She heard the Hornet, looked at me, turned around and headed back down the hill. What a relief.
A few years earlier I was following a car up Route 50, toward Salida, CO. There was a deer in the grass to the right side and a little in front of the car in front of me. I could tell the deer wanted to run in front of the car to cross the road. The deer turned right instead. My Hornet saved his car from a major accident.
I no longer bounce birds off my windshield. Instead of birds flying up and bouncing off the top of my windshield, doing a cartwheel and flopping on the highway, as they get near my vehicle, they do a 180 and fly off in the other direction. I've saved a bunch of birds with my Hornet.
I also use my Hornet as a dog call. I hike in the woods and sometimes my dogs wander off. The Hornet is about the same frequency as the ultrasonic dog whistle that I carry. If the dogs don't show up at the car, I turn on my Hornet and within a couple minutes, the dogs come running back to the car. The Hornet is a lot louder than my dog whistle.
I've used Hornets for 20+ years. The new ones seem louder and more effective.

Loud

The hornet is so loud I would not want to ride my Harley with it turned on. I think it would work good on a car, SUV or truck.

works as advertised

this is my second "deer screamer". I purchased the first one for my new 2014 Indian Chief. Definately noticed the number of deer I saw went way down. And have now bought one for my New Indian Scout. I recommend them to all my bike buddies.

Yeah it works

I live in a heavily wood area of the country and I have seen this in action. Used this product on my motorcycle for last two weeks. The deer I have seen, about 5 now, stop listen and move out of the way.
Worked on a gaggle of turkeys crossing the road, parted them like the Red Sea. Squirrels quickly make up their mind and get out of the way. Birds also fly away long before I get to them. Great product I highly recommend!

Love this product

I bought this 15 years ago, love it. I put this on my personal vehicle and my semi . It works the animals start moving and they get away from you. The only time we noticed that the deer don't run away from us is during mating season we had a couple run in front of us shaking there heads to get across the road where the girls are. But we haven't hit any animals and that is why I love this product.

GREAT PRODUCT

Our company has purchased several of the deer whistles for our vans over the years that cover many miles daily in central and western Kansas. We feel they have provided protection for our drivers through avoided deer/vehicle accidents

What Can Be Added?
Posted by Thomas Bent on 4th Oct 2021
After 6 vehicles over the last 20 years and 1 (number 3 vehicle) without this deer deterrent...yep, you guessed it. I "grilled" 5, count em' 5, deer in the one without! Now I've a newer vehicle and won't be happy until it's on. We live in S.E. Iowa...Whitetail country and it's nothing to drive between Keokuk and Iowa City and see 3-5 carcasses up and back. Glad my new unit came in yesterday! And when you see deer, remember 2 things: 1) whatever the side of the road they came bouncing out of, there's more coming. And 2) slow down, flash your brights up and down to break their being eye-locked and toot your horn until they're all gone. Do it all and have a ball. Forget just one and you'll be dun. (done) Don't hesitate, before it's too late, buy the Hornet. They're just GREAT!

TWENTY FOUR YEARS, ON FOUR VEHICLES AND NO ANIMAL COLLISIONS
Posted by Donald Tebbs on 29th Mar 2021
Drive daily on Colorado Hwy. 9, perhaps the most dangerous highway in Colorado or the nation for deer and elk kills and over 20 people since 1997. On average 200 plus deer and elk kills in one 10 mile stretch annually until the highway was rebuilt with 8" high fencing and tunnel and overpass animal crossings.
