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

In place of the traditional methods of struggle came a newer, but already proven and well-proven - ultrasound against rats. In this device there are a lot of advantages, the most basic of them is a high level of environmental friendliness, safety, unlike other means of protection from rodents.

Other advantages of ultrasonic repellents of mice and rats:

• Efficacy. Rats can not recognize ultrasound, and therefore can not help reacting to it. Due to the fact that the device periodically changes the frequency of radiation, the mouse will not be able to adapt to it.
• Security. The use of ultrasound against rats is absolutely safe for humans, as well as for dogs such as cats and dogs. But it should be noted that such pets as hamsters, guinea pigs or rabbits may suffer. Therefore, during the procedure of scaring off, it is desirable to isolate them.

Important! Newborn pups can not hear the first 2 weeks of life, that is, ultrasound will not act on them.

Important! It is not necessary to fix this device near heating elements, there should be no fleecy carpets in the room, as they absorb ultrasound.

• Counterfeits. On the Internet, in stationary stores you can often find Chinese versions of the device. They are much cheaper and work on batteries. But the minus is that they function much worse, besides - only at plus temperature. When buying an ultrasound scarer mice should be the most attentive, because from fakes no one is protected.
• Duration of the process. The result of the ultrasound repeller will appear in about 2 weeks, and in some cases, after 4.

As a result - panic, fear, excessive aggression, irritability in pests. A week later, you can see the first signs of the device, the maximum effect observed after a week.

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