 Merely a useless decoration Jul 15, 2011
By Kenneth B. Ain
This is a very picturesque alligator head that floats in our swimming pool, providing a bit of a topic for conversation. Unfortunately, it has had absolutely no effect upon wild ducks that fly into our swimming pool, swim around, and fill it with their excrement. I believe that our pool water must have wonderful laxative properties for ducks. We have tried every conceivable measure, including: fake owls, fake coyotes, yelling, swinging poles, etc. We are unwilling to purchase a swimming dog, just to deal with the ducks (what would we then do with the dog?). Now, the ducks have decided that they actually LIKE the alligator head and have chosen our backyard for their family abode. Their baby ducklings sit on it with their mother's approval. Certainly, we did not intend to spend such money merely to entertain them. At this time, we're commissioning a custom net to cover our pool and make it inhospitable to the ducks. We also fear the potential invasion of wild geese that have been sighted in our neighborhood. For potential Gator Guard customers, don't purchase this unless you merely seek a conversation piece.

 Has worked great. Haven't lost a Koi since!!! Jun 01, 2009
By M. Raimann

I bought the original design about 5 years ago after losing half my Koi from our pond. After the 3rd year, the eyes 'dulled' and didn't look real. (we lost a couple more fish---not realizing what had happened)
I replaced it with a new 'Gator Guard' and all is well again. I would suggest replacing it after 2 or 3 years. I'm going to see if I can purchase the plastic eyes in the future & save some $$$.
I live in Point Pleasant, NJ. This thing has saved my fish.
Sorry to see that some people haven't had the same luck.
Not only has it saved my fish, but keeps the ducks and heron and any other large birds from my property and above ground pool ever since. I let it float on the water and the water is always moving via the waterfall or the fish swimming. 5 stars from me!
Bird-X Gator Guard Alligator Head Jan 14, 2012

Delivery was FAST. The alligator head is "okay". Unfortunately, it sinks more than half-way in the water or tilting way over to the side. Time will tell if it helps keep the birds away.
 No more ducks! Sep 19, 2011

We had a big problem with ducks from local ponds wanting to make new homes in our swimming pool. Gator head to the rescue. It went together easily and does the job. Makes a great pool conversation piece, too. Ducks are gone.
Floating Alligator Head seems to be working May 31, 2011
By Click
Bought Floating Alligator Head to scare heron from eating fish in our small garden pond (approx. 12'X16'). We have seen heron fly over three times, but to our knowledge has not stopped to eat any of our fish. Before Alligator Head, the heron was a frequent visitor and ate many fish. We had stopped buying koi because he seemed to prefer them. When they were gone, he started on the goldfish.
Easy to assemble. Staked to a pot in pool with approx. 3' length fishing line which gives room to move with flow from waterfall, wind and pump.
