An apparatus for chasing animals from an automobile includes a generator for producing energy which can be sensed by animals, means for mounting the generator to an automobile, and an activation device operatively connected to the generator for activating the generator upon detecting presence of an animal near the automobile. The activation device may include a motion sensor or an infrared sensor. The motion detector may take the form of an ultrasonic sensor, which is sensitive to vibrations in an ultrasonic frequency range.

Apparatus and method for chasing animals from an automobile

An apparatus for repelling animals from an automobile is mounted in an automobile having an engine compartment and an automotive battery. A generator for producing vibrations which can be sensed by animals is mounted in the engine compartment. The vibration generator is wired to the automotive battery for supplying electrical energy from the battery to the generator. A switch is connected to the vibration generator to switch the vibration generator between an activated state, in which the generator generates vibrations, and a deactivated state, in which the generator does not generate vibrations. The switch may be connected to the ignition of the automobile to deactivate the generator while the ignition is activated, and to activate the generator while the ignition is deactivated.
