The sense organs of snakes are uniquely different from those of mammals and other animals. Unlike mammals, which mainly rely on their sight and hearing, snakes rely primarily on their senses of smell and touch. They do not have moveable eyelids, but transparent caps called "brille" as protective eye coverings. Because of this, their eye movement is fairly limited. They also do not have an external ear, middle ear, or tympanic membrane (eardrum). Instead, they use a small ossicle (ear bone), called the "columella," to detect vibrations of sound waves conducted through the ground. They are able to pick up some sound waves conducted through the air, but only at very low frequencies. Snakes actually sense the vibration right throughout their bodies via their spine, this is termed somatic hearing, where the vibration is picked up and transferred along the spinal cords to the ear bone.
The Electronic Snake Repeller has been designed and produced to give years of trouble free service with no running costs. Solar powered for economy and low maintenance, built of sturdy materials to resist the elements. It integrated high quality solar panel and power cell provides reliability to work continuously day and night, All year round even throughout prolonged periods of dull overcast weather. Each unit will protect approx 650sqm. It is environmentally safe and will not affect any other animals, birds or livestock.

The effectiveness of the repeller is greatly increased when two or more units are used as the snake cannot identify where the threat may be so it retreats much more quickly and generally will go much further away. One unit can and will protect its area well, a circle with a radius of 15 metres, but we recommend that at least two units be used. To protect larger areas it is recommended that multiple units be placed approx 30 metres apart, to get complete coverage between units for maximum protection, the more units deployed the more effective the result.

When the repeller unit is placed in your garden it is unobtrusive and blends in well. It is best to place the units where you feel you need the protection most.
