Mini Pestchaser Electronic Rodent Repellers 4-Pak

Here is another ultrasonic pest control product that claimed to be able to chase away rats and mice from your house. I don't know whether this product is relly works as I haven't try them yet. I don't have rats or mice problem in my house ( I stay on 9th floor ha ha ha. I don't think the rats and mice will climb that high) so I don't think there will be a chance for me to try this product.

Product summary
Rats and mice pose serious health risks, but traps and poisons come with a heavy price. Poisons can endanger children and pets while inhumane traps require the handling of potentially disease-bearing rodents. Neither poisons nor traps provide long-term protection since more rodents will likely replace the ones you've killed. It can be an unending cycle. The PestChaser Electronic Rodent Repeller puts the emphasis on non-toxic prevention, instead of after-the-fact toxic intervention. The PestChaser emits high frequency ultrasound waves between 32 and 62 kHz to create an acoustically hostile environment that repels rodents from sound-protected areas, over the long term. It's kinder than traps, safer than poisons, and inaudible to people and non-rodent pets. New handy 4-pack provides coverage for 4 rooms (i.e. kitchen, living & family room and garage or basement) each up to approx. 800 square feet. The Direct Plug-In fits discreetly into any unobstructed wall outlet and works best in rooms where there is a visible electrical outlet unobstructed by furniture, drapery, or other objects. Not recommended for use with an extension cord.

Costumers reviews

Its easy to misunderstand the application of ultrasound. Trapping ratios actually go up when you put these units in. This is because the sound creates a great deal of auditory stress on the rodents. So they get confused and cannot fool the traps, etc.

I too had mice which I thought were gone. But they were only out of sight. Acutally they had nested below. I lived in a trailer. When I put the units in, I was able to trap out the existing population. Having the units in place prevented new rodents coming in and taking up residency. So plugging in the units and seeing mice in the traps MEANS IT IS WORKING!!!!! Read the complete directions as the company throughly explains it.

My observation regarding the first 2 reviews is that the 2nd confirms the claims of the first reviewer.
I've had these repellers in every room of my house and garage.
Result: no mice.

I've twice sat in my kitchen and seen mice poke their noses around the corner from a hole under my pantry cupboard, turn around and leave. There is no mouse scat or damage in my pantry.

However, I've continued to have a problem with chipmunks in my gardens and stone walls which neighborhood dogs tear apart trying to reach them. I recently put one near the wall and strawberry bed. The chipmunks have moved out.

I find them very effective.

I knew I had a mouse problem in my kitchen for several months. I placed traps all over the place and for several months I didn't catch anything. Thinking that all the mice had somehow vanished, I bought this repeller just to make sure they didn't come back. It turns out that the day afer I plugged this unit into an outlet in my kitchen, I caught three mice! I think this product may actually attract mice rather than repel them!

So from the three reviews above, 2 of them talking about the same thing. They install the devices and they catch more mices and rats with traps. The other one said the devices was very effective. If we combine the three reviews we could come to a conclusion that it seems this ultrasonic rats and mice repeller is really works. Anyway if you do have them in your house please fell free to post your reviews in the comment section. Hopefully your reviews on the product can be of help to others.

Do Ultrasonic Pest Control Product Really Works?

According to Jack DeAngelis, PhD, "Various devices on the market claim to repel bugs and rodents with ultrasonic or electromagnetic energy. These devices have repeatedly failed to do what they claim to do in scientific trials". Now this is a very interesting part. The question is why those ultrasonic pest control manufacturing companies are confidently still coming up with more volume in their production of ultrasonic pest control devices.

I am sure the cost to research and producing those product involved huge amount of money. If they the manufacturer know that their product does not really work is not it risky to invest in such a huge amount of money to produce a product that they know does not work well and cannot sell?

There is of course some ultrasonic pest control devices are not so effective or not really works. However there is also some product really works as it claimed. My opinion is, it is up to the costumer to decide whether to buy the product or not and it also a costumers responsibility to check and get the information before they decide to buy it

That is also the reason why I setup this blog to help us as costumers to exchange ideas and experience about ultrasonic pest control product so that when we buy the devices it will be a well-informed purchase. So you are invited to share your knowladge and experience about ultrasonic pest control in the comment section. Hopefuly those comments about the products can be of use to many people out there.

Another Product From Bell and Howell.

I stumbled upon another ultrasonic pest control product from Bell and Howell yesterday. It seems Bell and Howell has a lot of ultrasonic pest control products in store for us user to give it a try. They claimed that their ultrasonic and electromagnetic pest repeller will helps to get rid your home of pesky critters without messy traps or poisonous chemicals. On paper it sounds good. This ultrasonic pest control innovative technology uses wiring within your house's wall to emits a sounds or signal that drive insects and rodents away from your house. To use it is just very simple. Plug-in unit protects one floor level and features a side outlet so you won't lose plugspace.

Afters searching around in the internet I've found several costumers reviews about the products In my previous post regarding to the similar product from Bell and Howell, it was noted that the product was not as good as it should be. So let see what the costumers said about this another ultrasonic pest control from Bell and Howell.

By N. Gardner (San Diego, CA USA)

The product may or may not work. I do not know the answer because the side effects were too unpleasant to leave it plugged in for long. The frequency range it claims to operate under is well beyond what humans can hear, but the unit additionally makes a piercing high pitched whining worthy of making ones ears (and eyes!) hurt. It was certainly well within my range of hearing. I could hear the sound throughout my house, regardless of how far from the unit I walked.

Also having researched many models and brands of this product before purchasing, I felt comfortable in its reassurance that domestic animals would not be affected by this product. (Most similar products make this claim.) For this unit however, the promise turned out to be outrageously false. From the second the product was plugged in, my cat responded as if being attacked by auditory ghosts: crouching low to the ground, defensively spinning, darting about the house, dodging in random directions and doubling back on himself... seemingly unable to escape.

Within 20 minutes of receiving the product, I had already packed it back in its box and was standing in line at the post office to send it right back.

This product may deter pests, but it will also drive off family, friends, pets, and quite possibly your sanity.

I'd recommend looking into similar products with a higher price tag.

By S. Sabin "raynesonyx" (Idaho Falls, ID USA)

I bought this product after I found a mouse in my apartment. You see I am extremely allergic to mice and can't deal with even one or two creeping about. That said I still don't want to torture, or poison the little things. I feel a bit like a bartender after hours, (i.e. "they don't have to go home but they can't stay here.") So I read some online information and bought this product. I wasn't sure about it at first because I does make an audible wining/clicking sound (easy enough I just put it in the bathroom so that I only hear it when I'm in there). But because it works through the wiring of you apartment/home it works just the same no matter were you put it. With in an hour I started seeing little black house spiders making a mass exodus from my bathroom. So I thought great it really works. Now it's four days later and I have not seen hide nor hair (or in this case mouse turds) of the little furry critters either. After talking to my neighbor who are still having mouse problems I can only surmise that it is this lovely product which drove the little guys from my apartment. I told them to go buy this product that way they don't have to hurt the mice, just drive them away.

Ultrasonic Pest Control From Bell and Howell. Some Costumer Reviews.

Bell and Howell has come out with a new ultrasonic pest control product or they call it as ultrasonic pest repellers. I believe this ultrasonic pest control or repellers product is good to help protect your home from vile, disease-carrying rodents and insects.

According to them, it is just very easy to use. Just plug them into any wall power socket and the ultrasonic technology emits a constantly-changing signal that drives pests crazy. The sounds that produced by this devices are virtually inaudible to you and your pets. This ultrasonic pest control or repellers product comes with extra outlet 3 pack set.

So what are the reviews?

By Gary Peterson (San Diego, California USA)

We have a certain number of annoying pests around the house. Fortunately, there are no rodents. We have a couple cats and the rodents seem to know better than to show up. I wish I could say the same for silverfish, spiders, earwigs, ants, scorpions and moths. Argentine ants are especially annoying and I have a poison which is sometimes effective. Sometimes it isn't, however.

I ran across this little item: the Bell and Howell Ultrasonic Pest Repeller (model no. SB 104) and picked up 6. It seemed so simple. Just plug this into your outlets and it will emit an ultrasonic blip now and then and the pests will disappear. Plus it's Bell and Howell, isn't it? They turn out good, effective, well-researched products, don't they? I couldn't resist. I took my treasures home and plugged them in: two in the kitchen, two in the dining room, one in the living room and one in the bathroom.

Well, intuitively, I just knew this wasn't going to work but I had a glimmer of hope. Pests around the house are usually just not that simple of a problem. But, it seemed worth a try. Well, sure enough, they don't work. They sit there plugged in and emitting a little flashing light about every three seconds, and presumably an inaudible ultrasonic signal that insects, etc, just can't bear. Well, I haven't noticed that it has any effect at all on the insect population. The ants still seem to be everywhere, including right on the ultrasonic repeller.

I'm going to give these things a longer try, simply because I bought them. However, the product appears to be totally ineffective, as far as I can tell. If you're looking for the magic wand solution to your household pest problems, these Ultrasonic Pest Repellers are probably not it.

Do not waste your money. I put 1 in my kitchen. It had been plugged-in for a few weeks. I was baking cupcakes, took them out of the oven, placed them on a rack to cool. When I came back into the kitchen to frost the cupcakes, a mouse was eating my cupcakes 2 feet away from this hunk of crap.

By K. J. Harlow "SodaYak

This is a poor-quality copy of other, better products. This one does not emit a constant ultrasonic tone, instead it "blips" every 5 seconds or so, which I do not think is enough to drive pests away. I have used the Sunbeam Ultrasonic Pest repeller (which unfortunately the company doesn't make any more) and that worked wonders keeping spiders and other bugs out of my house, because it had a constant, changing-frequency sound emitted by the device. Don't waste your money on this one. I bought it to keep fleas away after flea-bombing my apartment and they are still around.

Based on the three costumers review above none of them has said something positive about this ultrasonic pest control from Bell and Howell. So it is up to you know whether you are still going to buy it or not. I have come to a conclusion that buying it will be a waste of your hard earned money. There are many other more useful and effective ultrasonic pest control in the market that you can buy.
