Some people say they work and some people say they don't, but after last years near collision..better safe then sorry. I know the year I had them on..I don't think I saw one all season. They are supposed to keep deer away from your car, and they are out alot in the fall.

If you normally see dear but haven't since installing the deer whistles you can probably bet they are indeed working. Stay safe.

I hope it works for you. I would feel awful if I hit a deer too. On Oahu, no deer.

My parents had them on their cars when I was younger and said they hit more deer with them then without them.

@crossbones27 right this would have been about 20 or more years ago they had them on their cars.

Maybe they were installed incorrectly.

Really, hopefully they made advancements in that area. I imagine could attract them if not done right. Some kind of mating call they would take it as.

I hadn't heard about those. I'm glad they helped in the past and hope they will now too. Yes, it's the time when deer are seen everywhere. It will soon be hunting season here.

Interesting and makes sense someone would invent something like that. I like it. Keeps both parties safe. My friend hit a deer in Marines and totally destroyed his truck. Still love his comment. I did not care about truck Deer still alive choking on its own blood. I cannot get it out of my head. Sounds pretty tragic and A PTSD event. Why you can always separate cool people from true jerks.

@crossbones27 They sure do, and they seem to come out often when you least expect them.

@snowy22315 Indeed, be scary as hell to hit one since they come out of nowhere.

We have similar alarms which are supposed to keep kangaroos away. Some say they work but I couldn't say for certain how effective they are.

Could you please explain what a deer whistle is and where you put it on your car? Thanks. (No deer here, but I use an ultrasound pest control app in my house to chase away bugs and mice.)

They are worth a try. There are so many deer this time of year.

I could of used one of those gadgets years ago when I could not avoid a deer which ran across the highway in front of my car. Unfortunately the deer and my car did not make out alright
