I ride to work most days and have been seeing more deer because it is getting to be that time of year. Do the Deer Whistles you see in JP Cycle or anywhere else actually work?
Yes they do work - just as well as the gremlin bells
Deer to me appear to follow a leader. If the leader is to the left of the road, then the followers will almost always run to that side of the road when spooked. If this is what others have experienced, then deer whistles don't work. They will stick with the herd at almost any cost. This post could be total BS. It is based on conclusions based on personal observations.
Those things will work great just as soon as someone goes out and trains all those little deers to run AWAY from the noise. Until that happens don't waste any money on 'em.
I have read may reviews on those whistles, the wind powered ones that comes in pairs don't work. I have read the electronic ones ( electric power not wind ) does work.
Maybe we could write Myth Busters for confirmation.
