Will they work in sandy soils as in Florida?

This device has worked very well for me keeping the moles away. It should work in any soil where moles have infested. The device is about 18" long and should be buried vertically except for the screw-on top.

Yes, they will work outside with little to no problems at all. I use them to light up my land scape in the backyard. I have been using them for about six months on. The only problem I had was that two of them burned out within two months of installing them, so they had to be replaced, as for the other 5 they have been working great. Hope that this helps.

Yes, it works fine in rocky soil. I used it in my drive which has years of mixed dirt and gravel packed. The plastic spikes that came with it worked ok. Just have to be careful hammering them in and not try to pound them in with one or two hits. Short easy tapping worked with no bending of the spikes.

I don't know if they would work in gardens but I have them in outdoor potted and thy work just fine

Haven't an answer for the sandy soil, but can tell you the batteries last at least 4 month. In fact I missed taking the batteries out last fall, and this year when I put it in, it was still working.

I think they would work good, but I'd say it may depend on how loose and deep the sand is.

Yes they will as long as there is food (compost) in the middle. Good luck and enjoy!! :-)

It shouldn't to my knowledge. I live in South Dakota and have had nothing but success with these products. The Company is located in Lewisville, Tx so would assume that the vegetation and climate are somewhat similar. I would call the companies 800 number and they can tell you for sure. They have always been more than willing to answer my questions.

I would think so. I don't know if the Sun might do something to them but I don't think cold or rain would affect them at all.

Sure, in the right material--soil would be best, just like a garden. I'm not sure how big they'd get. Todd's has a lot of information available about their products, so you might want to check their website.

Hey raw food teacher, Hope your having a great day! Thanks for reaching out! Yes they will work anywhere where they receive sunlight. They are Beautiful, tough and durable! We actually have awards recognizing the quality of our products not only nationally but globally! Although they work anywhere we would possibly recommend to dig a small hole and place the paver in! Thanks, Paver Light Depot

Yes, they could work. However, they were not designed to be used around a pool as the tiles are hard. There are other version (not from BlockTile) that are softer with better traction control when used barefoot. These tiles are designed for patio floors and garage floors.

While I'm not using them in any pots like that, I think it would work because the soil only draws out water when it is needed.

Sandy here so no problem, but you may have to dig out the rocks in your location. Legs are just tubing.

I can't give a precise response...but I can say that the amount of heat is not very high at all. If you are using them as growing lights in a cool space (as I am), heat pads are the ticket to provide an increased soil temperature.

Ms. Myers, I can't answer your question as I live in Texas, and therefore can't speak to the suitability of this product in Florida. The product seems to be working for me here. However, I will have to wait for summer to evaluate the claim of drought tolerance...

probably an inch and a half (see other answers). They are hard plastic. I have used it on uneven lawn (very uneven), but not in sand.I'm thinking it might work, if the sand isn't too loose/deep.
