It is he who prefers an increasing number of owners of private houses and industrial premises, when there is a problem of the appearance of rodents.

Ultrasonic repellers. Benefits

Unfortunately, poisons, baits, traps for rats and mice are no longer so effective. Rodents learned to ignore such means, recognize poisons, and not respond to baits. That is why people are less and less likely to turn to similar methods of exterminating pests.

The traditional methods of control were replaced by a newer, but already proven and well-proven - ultrasound against rats. This device has a lot of advantages, the most important of which is a high level of environmental friendliness, safety, unlike other means of protection against rodents.

Other benefits of mouse and rat ultrasound scares:

• Efficiency. Rats cannot recognize ultrasound and therefore cannot but respond to it. Due to the fact that the device periodically changes the frequency of radiation, mice will not be able to adapt to it.
• Security. The use of ultrasound against rats is completely safe for humans, as well as for pets such as cats and dogs. But it must be borne in mind that such pets as hamsters, guinea pigs or rabbits can suffer. Therefore, it is advisable to isolate them during the scaring procedure.

Important! Newborn cubs cannot hear the first 2 weeks of life, that is, ultrasound will not affect them.

• Convenience.The mouse repeller does not malfunction office, household appliances, equipment.

Ultrasonic repellers. disadvantages

As already mentioned before, there are a lot of advantages in the rat and mouse repeller, but like any other device, it is not ideal. The negative sides of this device:

• Price. It will be cheaper to buy poison for rats or to put bait, because a good, high-quality mouse repeller will cost a considerable amount of money, but not sky-high. It is quite accessible for owners of private houses, not to mention those who have the opportunity to equip industrial enterprises and warehouses.
• Wrong location. Judging by the reviews of buyers of mouse repellers, he did not help everyone. Increasingly, due to improper device selection or its incorrect location. If the room that needs to be cleaned of rats is large enough, then it is worth buying several small repellers - this is much more effective. Information about the power of a particular model, the area of ​​its impact can be found in the passport data for the device.

Important! Do not fix this device near the heating elements, the room should not have fleecy carpets, as they absorb ultrasound.

• Fakes. On the Internet, in stationary stores, you can often find Chinese versions of the device. They are much cheaper and run on batteries. But their minus is that they function much worse, moreover, only at positive temperature. When buying an ultrasonic mouse repeller, you should be extremely careful, because no one is protected from fakes.
• The duration of the process. The result of the ultrasonic repeller appears after about 2 weeks, and in some cases after 4.
• Limitedness. Ultrasound does not penetrate dense walls and other obstacles.

Varieties of rat and mouse repellers

At the moment, you can find a lot of devices that scare away rats, mice. The most basic among them are:

• directly ultrasonic repeller of mice and rats;
• electronic device;
• combined action device.

Their main difference is a different effect on rodents.

An ultrasonic device acts under the influence of sound waves. Electromagnetic waves affect the nervous, auditory systems of rats. The result is panic, fear, excessive aggression, irritability in pests. After a week you can notice the first signs of the device, the maximum effect is observed after a week.

The action of an electronic device to scare away rats and mice causes panic in rodents, they completely lose their orientation.

Important! After connecting such a device, initially the number of animals may increase. Rats will run out of hiding and hiccup a way out.

The combination of these two methods can be traced in the combined action device. This device is maximally improved and practically devoid of flaws. With constant use, you can forever forget about rats and mice.
