The Deer Gard emits high‑frequency sounds (15–25 kHz) that are typically inaudible to people but are unpleasant to a broad range of mammals, encouraging them to leave the treated area. You can run it continuously or conserve power by using the motion sensor; it accepts AC power via a 50‑ft cord or four C batteries when cordless operation is preferred.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does Deer Gard reduce animal damage in gardens and landscaping?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe device uses ultrasonic pulses that create an uncomfortable environment for animals without harming them.
