Has anyone used ultrasonic sound pest control?
« on: July 12, 2012, 07:23:46 AM »
Do they work? I know they are supposed to keep the bugs out but what abut the ones that are already in? If you have used this product can you please share your experience with it? Thanks.

We had mice and bugs.  We got them and no longer have mice and I haven't seen any bugs either.  I do notice my parakeet holds his head cockeyed though  :lmao:

I use one that I can clip onto my collar when I'm fishing in marshy country or irrigating.  Really keeps the mosquitoes away.

Hmmmmm I never have them come near me.  It's the strangest thing.  Maybe it's my perfume?  or I am too sweeet to suck on?  :)

I use sonic pest control at work on the weekends.  I play either country or classic rock on the stereo and it keeps my co-workers away most of the time.  :-)

I had 3 of 'em plugged around our place, but only for some supposed protection from vermin. But we didn't have vermin before that, so I dunno if they did any good or not.

I can't attest to bugs, but I can attest to rodentry.  It helps with a combination of cats and professional help.

How about we get a real big one or a lot of little ones & sneak them into the White House?

After living for Years in the south and having to have the places bombed and sprayed every 6 weeks ,when I came North I was sure I had seen the last of roaches, mice etc.

In 1991-2 I moved into a ghetto to save money to buy my home.  $100 a week for a 2 bedroom apartment and all the bugs I could catch or stomp on. 

Friends were selling Amway and in a catalogue I found the first sonic bug and rodent plug in devices.   The cost at that time was $50.00 each.    OUCH-------A whole weeks rent but as they came with money back guarantee we went for them.   

Didn't take but a week or so and no roaches, spiders or ants.   We were the only apartment in the ghetto with no bugs.

Only problem with these things we found is every 2-3 months they have to rotated around the rooms they are in from one side of the room to the other.  One reason is the varmints build up a tolerance to the signal kept in one area for too long.

The plug in type really kept mice away from an old house I lived in.  The little clip on type for personal use has never worked for me as far as insects.  It did keep the rodents away, though :-).
