Sprinklers can be great fun, we all know that. Kids love to dance around in them when the weather is hot, dogs love to play chicken with them and they keep your lawn all nice and lush. However, they are the mortal enemy of the water board who impose hosepipe bans as a mere cover for their efforts to remove sprinklers and their kin from the face of the planet. Trust me – its only a matter of time before you see United Utilities workmen marching into B&Q to ‘purify’ the garden equipment aisles…

But aside from that, here we have a perfect example of what you can do with sprinklers: save your pool from birds crapping in it. Pool tarpaulins? Pah! Old hat, behind the curve and all that. What you really need is to blow some money on a motion-sensitive sprinkler system to hose down all birds who go near your pool. Well, those big enough for it to detect. And they can still crap in the pool – from a height, before they’re blasted, whenever really. But yeah, this will totally teach them a lesson!

This makes me wonder how dangerous this guy would be with something like residential fire sprinklers. There would be soaked pets for miles around.
