Pest A Cator Plus 2000 Electromagnetic/Ultrasonic Rodent Repeller for Larger Areas

Wow. this product works almost instantly.Winter of 2012/13 I was seeing mice in my garage and in my basement. Our cat was able to catch a few of them, but we still had an issue. Come spring, the mice were out in force and I even bought some Ortho 0321110 Home Defense Max Press 'N Set Mouse Traps and was capturing 2 mice a day between the 4 traps (2 in basement, 2 in garage with peanut butter). This went on for 2 weeks. I finally was tired of finding a mouse entrails shredded by my cat and having to check on the traps everyday because I knew half of them would be full.I plugged in the Pest A Cator Plus 2000 Electromagnetic/Ultrasonic Rodent Repeller For Larger Areas, one in the garage and one in the basement. The next day I had one mouse in the trap. After that, I have not had a single mouse set off a trap. Here it is, Summer 2013 leading into fall and I have not seen a mouse since. My cat is mad at me. No, seriously. I took the fun away from him.My only complaint is you have to check to see if the red activation light is flashing. They should have put the light on the front rather than the top of the unit. If you have any kind of power outage, you have to unplug the device and plug it back to get it to 'reboot'. I check them once a week and I have only found the red light not to be flashing 3 times total.These work. Trust me. I also noticed these keep away certain types of bugs as well. I have not seen a house centipede since I used them and I would find (so would my cat) 3-5 of these "eyelash bugs" a week. Gone!

I did quite a bit of research before I decided to try these out in our home! We live in an extremely rural area and we have mice in our garage. What surprised me is that we also have voles who have found a way of getting in our house. It was getting so bad that we were hearing them everywhere, so I decided it was time to try to do something about it. After reading lots of comments on these types of products I decided to take a chance and see if they would work. Boy am I glad I did!!! So far they are working great, it only took a couple of days after we plugged them in for us to notice the absence of critter noises. I stopped finding piles of rodent poop in places, and our dog didn't seem to hear anything anymore.After purchasing them and using them for awhile I discovered that there is more than one type. These (I believe) send out random pulses through the wiring of our house. So if you are putting them somewhere that doesn't have very much wiring through it, it might not work as well. My church has also put some in but they are different, they broadcast a signal that can be barely heard. They did this because of their Technical needs and the fact that they did not want the signal through the wires to mess with our Service.I hope this helps you, I think these are great but I know there are some that have said that they got them and didn't think they worked. I can only testify to the fact that they are definately working for us!

We found this product at Home Depot first and later on Amazon at a better price. The product suggested (almost guaranteed) no rodents would enter the home when the device was on, as did other users. Turned out to be absolutely false. Less than 2 weeks after plugging this in, we had a rat enter the home through a small hole in the kitchen, less than 10 feet away from where this device was plugged in. It had been entering and leaving for 2 days until we finally put an end to it by closing the holes. I even have the same device upstairs and yet the rat managed to climb up the stairs until about 5 feet away from the device. It only stopped exploring because there was no food upstairs. Frankly, all this technological mumbo-jumbo does not make any sense. The expectation was just plugging this device would stop all rats and rodents from entering the house. We are back to using the traps as the best bet. I even had Orkin Pest Control come and check it out and they too confirmed this device does not work. I am hoping to contact Amazon and get a refund but not evry optimistic about that. May others have better luck. Take care.

I had high hopes for this one, because a lot of people recommended it. However, it does not seem it deterred mice much. I had one in each room: kitchen, living and bedroom. Mice walked around as it was their house. Maybe would deterred new ones from coming in, but once they are in, the only thing that works is the trap.

This worked really well to get rid of a mouse. I put one in each end of the house. Took only 3 days to get him out. There first night I saw the mouse had moved to another part of the house. Then a few days later, no sign of him anywhere. The problem is that one of them stopped working. No blinking light anymore. I ordered another one but wish that the product would be replaced instead.

Been using this product since the fall of 2013. The only things I hate more than mice are rats! We live on a farm, in an 1800 sq ft manufactured home with a crawl space underneath, no basement. I was going through poison (placed under the house, in the crawl space) like mad the first 3 yrs. we had this house. One night, one of the dirty buggers found its way INTO the house, and that was it for me! I bought more poison of different brands (give them a smorgasbord!), sticky traps, peppermint oil, two styles of snap traps and two of these. I plugged one PestACator into outlets at opposite ends of the house, and the results have been dramatic!! In the 14 months since I starting using this product, I've caught two stray mice in the snap traps under the house and cut my use of poison down to practically nothing....other than the uneaten chunks that I replace because they get moldy. Once in awhile, there may be SLIGHT activity on the poison chunks, but only enough to indicate that an occasional tone-deaf, brain-dead mouse can tolerate the signal these put out long enough to take a few nibbles from the poison chunks or find its way into a snap trap. I was so skeptical about these and probably would've never tried them had not that one critter gotten into the house and sent me into a panic. Guess I owe him a thank-you....oh wait, hubby pummeled him with the broom!
