Together with the first rays of the spring sun, bright colorful butterflies, ants, flies, beetles come to life and crawl out of their winter shelters. And that makes everyone happy. Spring has come! But as soon as this living creature begins to fly and multiply in your apartment, it no longer causes delight and tenderness. And besides the spring "guests", such "neighbors" as spiders, sometimes cockroaches, bedbugs, mice live next to us all year round. Fighting them constantly takes our time, energy, and money.
What prevent us from rodents and insects
- Many people experience panic fear at the sight of a mouse or a spider (it's not for nothing that they even came up with a special term: "arachnophobia" - fear of spiders).
- It's unpleasant to realize that someone has already eaten this apple or pie before you.
- Mosquitoes and bedbugs bite painfully, which interferes with full work and rest.
- Rats, mice carry viruses of dangerous diseases that can infect the owners of the house.
Domestic pest control methods
Various deodorants to kill insects are not very effective and worknot for long, and the harm to the he alth of the host from them is not much less than that of insects. Powders, gels, poured out at baseboards, crayons from moths and cockroaches are not so harmful to humans, but they also act in a small area. And over time, the addictive effect will allow uninvited guests not to react to the “treat” prepared for them.
To fight mice and rats, poison is used, from which they die, leaving behind corpses with a specific smell. Mousetraps catch only those who are caught in them. Then they need to be cleared of prey. It turns out that pests multiply much faster than a person fights them. What to do: accept and continue this Sisyphean labor?
Ultrasonic Repeller
A relatively new tool - an ultrasonic repeller. Its use makes it possible, without running around the room with a fly swatter or a broom, to get rid of annoying cohabitants. The device uses ultrasonic signals to create an uncomfortable sound background for insects. Unable to withstand these terrible (in their understanding) sounds, they leave your room.
And go to another. There, too, you need to install your repeller. And if there are more than one or two rooms, then the fight against insects and rodents will be expensive financially. In addition, according to consumer reviews, the device interferes with life not only for mice, but also for the owners. This very ultrasound is not very pleasant for them either. Reviews of cats and dogs could not be found.
Electronic scaring away
Save money, nervesand he alth will help an electronic repeller - a new word in a quiet war with insects.
Now there are several brands of electronic scarers on sale. One of them is Riddex Pest Repeller ("Pest Repeller"), patented in the USA. It operates on an area of 70 m2. Some sources speak of effective operation on an area up to 220 m2. But it is better for such a room to get one more. That is, one device will be enough for an apartment or an ordinary house.
How the Pest Repeller works
Customer reviews indicate that the device is extremely easy to use.
Plug "Pest Repeller" into one of the outlets (voltage 220V), preferably in the center of the house or apartment. See that the indicator light of the device flashes (first green, then red) and go about your business.
The repeller uses the entire electrical network of the building, which for the duration of the work will become one large electromagnetic device. The microprocessor, using digital pulse technology, will change the electromagnetic field created by the electrical wires. Rodents and cockroaches under its influence begin to experience fear. It makes pests leave your apartment.
Before you buy a device, remember if you have guinea pigs, hamsters or other small pets. After all, "Pest Repeller" is a repeller that acts on all rodents indiscriminately. In this case, you need to choose: pets and cockroaches– or neither.
When to wait for the result
Repeller Pest is most effective in the first week.
After that, the device should not be turned off, because the cost of electricity consumed by it is minimal. If the "Pest Repeller" is unplugged, uninvited guests can come back.
1-4 weeks is enough to kill rats and mice. Longer go cockroaches and other trifles. It will take up to 12 weeks for them to be fully evacuated.
The device is not a panacea

- do not leave open windows, doors of the house or basement, because it takes one minute for pests to penetrate through them, and Repeller will fight them for seven whole days;
