Scarecrows & Decoys

Scarecrows & Decoys

Keeping geese away from ponds or birds out of gardens often relies on choosing the right scarecrows and decoys. Tractor Supply provides a range of visual deterrents built to protect lawns, crops and water features without traps or chemicals. These reusable tools give you a simple layer of animal and rodent control for the spaces you work hardest to maintain.

Visual Deterrents That Guard Your Property

Decoys work by triggering an animal’s instinct to avoid predators. A lifelike owl, coyote or floating alligator signals danger, and most wildlife keeps its distance rather than risk a close call. That single cue can help discourage birds and small pests from returning to frequently targeted lawn and garden areas.

Birds, rodents and burrowing pests all react differently to visual deterrents. Our selection includes figure decoys that disrupt the open sightlines birds rely on, as well as ground-level models that deter rodents and small foragers. Placed near flowers, raised garden beds or water features, these products provide your property with dependable, low-maintenance protection all season long.

Ground-Stake and Hanging Figures

Predator decoys are most effective when placed where animals already gather. Our selection features owl, coyote and fox decoys in a variety of mounting styles, with options that can be staked into the ground near beds and borders, while others are designed to hang from posts, fences or branches. Hanging models sway in the wind, mimicking live animals and making birds and small pests think twice before approaching. For persistent trouble spots, pair these decoys with animal and rodent repellents for even greater coverage.

Floating and Inflatable Decoys

Open water and wide spaces require specialized deterrents. Our selection includes floating alligator heads that drift across ponds and pools, featuring realistic eyes and snouts and deterring geese from landing. We also offer inflatable bird chasers, featuring oversized predator eyes and vivid colors to frighten birds away from crops and rooftops. Lightweight and easy to move, these decoys are most effective when repositioned every few days to prevent birds from adapting. For persistent flying pests, consider pairing these deterrents with physical barriers, such as netting, for comprehensive protection.
