Claim 8:
9. A pest deterrent system comprising:
a control hub defining an operation radius, the control hub comprising:
a sensor housing;
a first sensor and a second sensor positioned within the sensor housing, the first sensor and the second sensor configured to:
detect a presence of an animal within a detected area within the operation radius; and
in response to detecting the presence of the animal, transmit a detection signal;

a first controller communicably coupled to the first sensor and the second sensor, the first controller configured to:
receive the detection signal from the first sensor and the second sensor;
in response to receiving the detection signal, select at least one peripheral module of a plurality of peripheral modules to actuate within a deterrence area, the deterrence area being different from the detected area; and
in response to receiving the detection signal, transmit a deterrent request to the least one peripheral module; and

the plurality of peripheral modules in communication with the control hub and configured to be positioned within the operation radius, each peripheral module in the plurality of peripheral modules comprising:
an actuator housing separate from the sensor housing;
an actuator positioned within the actuator housing; and
an actuator controller in communication with the first controller, the actuator controller configured to:
receive the deterrent request from the first controller; and
in response to the receiving the deterrent request, transmit a deterrent command to the actuator so as to cause the actuator to actuate and generate a deterrent stimuli.
