It really works, good for dog whistles

Wow, they come back at the same time every day, I treat them with raw eggs and they really turn into bananas when you cook them. At first they were shocked they thought I had one of them and were hostile no bombing or anything. But when they see food being brought to them, they go from 0 to 100 very quickly. I have to settle for food, people look at me like I'm (Brandon Lee) or something, but crows are very smart. You know me without food and still scream.

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • Secret

Wonderful sound - very inconvenient the first time

I don't know what the difference is but I played around with it the first day, I got it within half an hour but couldn't get it to trill. Too much water? Not enough water? Blow harder/softer? No idea. About a month later (now) I've been playing with it again. The water level has not changed. It works great. It's impossible to tell how much water is in it - it's probably magic and you have to blow HARD. So get ready to experiment. Now that it's working I'm a lot happier.

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • Nothing

This thing sucks. Despite YouTube advice on how to use this thing properly, it still sounds like a kazoo on steroids. Its use did not attract the crows at all. Instead, the noise startled the crows so badly that using the thing caused a severe reprimand and actually stopped the crows from coming back. If you want to scare away crows, this crow call is perfect! I really hope crow hunters use this ridiculous thing because it will definitely scare away crows and protect them from creeps that love…

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • Nothing here

O LOUD! TERRIBLE POWERFUL WHISTLE. (Close your ears!) Must be a long time.

Why did I use ALL CAPITAL LETTERS in the title? Because I GET! I bought an Acme 58.5 Thunderer Whistle (Large) and I'm screaming because I can't hear my own thoughts. It turned out to be exactly what I was hoping for. I wanted a large, incredibly loud whistle to deter woodpeckers pecking at our home, deer eating our prized plants, and various other wild animals that pose a threat to pets. After it first appeared, I checked inside and got scared - so I knew it would work. So far, so good. The…

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • Little things

58.5 LOUD! for dog whistles

I live in rural Texas. The tone is carried FAR. LOL This thing reverberated around the area at 5:15pm Central Time. I blew it up before the sun came out. God this thing is loud. I'm 57 and bought this in case I got in trouble, in the parking lot etc. This is the REAL deal. Heavy and solid. No flimsy metal stuff. It's thick and heavy so it will last a long time. As I said, I bought it to get attention when I have problems or help. I tried it twice and was completely convinced that I had made the

Pros
  • price
Cons
  • long delivery time

I got this whistle because it sounded different and realistically called the birds. I didn't expect the sparrows in the backyard to flock nearby and watch me play the whistle. I just hope the neighbors don't get mad that I blow that thing all the time. The directions were terrible and far away. It took a long time to get it sounding nice. Here's what worked for me. I used a plastic pipette to pour the water. Instead of just filling it 1/4 full, I would fill it at least 1/3 full with water. When

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Negative impression
