Search for exact word/term in classified ads?

Good morning.

I would like to search for an exact item on (formerly eBay) classifieds, without the usual other search suggestions that are close to the term.

Example: I search for the term "siren" and all ads containing the letters "sir" are displayed (e.g., Sirion, Sirona, desire). However, I only want results containing the word "siren."

Is there a trick?

Many thanks in advance.

This will probably only work if you continue to inspect the category, e.g. on electronics.

No, you didn’t. Sirion is a car, siren an electric device. Certainly not both are in the same category. Nor will there be much desire under electronics.

Sirona is a dentist and will be more likely to be found under business. I think that you can filter it out. There are some more filters under electronics.

What the fuck is that? You’re right. If you’re looking for Sirene, there’s a lot of ads coming, just not what you’re looking for. Such a junk. I would have tried to put Sirene in “, but that also helps nix. You can’t do anything in the extended search. I’m afraid there’s no way.
