I need one (http://www.birds-away.com/index.html)! Who doesn't?

I love this from the Science News article:

Written testimonials available at Tasano's Web site suggest that the Attack Spider is indeed effective, if not selective. Customers report, with varying degrees of glee, that the device has terrorized pets, deer, children, and unsuspecting package-delivery men as well as rappers.
Halloween is not over yet! Though maybe I better not scare the nice UPS man until after Xmas. :D

:o :o

I have one.

Well, not the "original" attack spider, but a Halloween spider that does the same thing. I usually hang it right above the front door. Unsuspecting trick or treaters come to the door - and BAM. Spidey drops down, and the good times roll....

That is nice. I wonder what the cats would think of it?? :D :eek: :D

Or DH for that matter IF I didn't tell him I got one. Oh the possibilities...

I do too, and they get bugs out of trees that can damage the trees.

But do they scare rappers? My neighbors play their stereo way too loud :rolleyes:

Anyone have a clever/effective suggestion for this? I know businesses who discourage loiterers by piping classical music outdoors, but that wouldn't work in this case.

Andy Williams might work.

I love it! I need one for my cubicle!

Hey, do you suppose it works on Project Managers the way it does on woodpeckers? :rolleyes:
