Loraffe Rodent Repellent Ultrasonic Under Hood Animal Repeller Battery Operated Rat Strobe Light Mouse Deterrent for Car Engine Garage Home Attic Warehouse, Indoor Pest Control, Vehicle Protection

Its been more than a month. Does its job well!

We live in the country, so mice are a given. We have cats and a dog, so we don't want to use any kind of poison since our cats have gotten ahold of a couple of mice. If the mice are poisoned and the cat eat them, it would probably be too late for vet care before we realized what happened. Of course we take all the preventative steps we can like not leaving any pet or people food out, putting out pet safe mice deterrent, etc. There are baited snap traps all over the attic, basement, closets, etc. but mice would still sneak into the house. Even our pest control guy said that without poison baiting, it would be a constant battle since mice can get into a home through the teeniest openings and a house in a place where they have a lot of natural predators is a spot mice will seek out for safety. We live across from a nature preserve with several species of predator birds such as eagles and hawks as well as coyotes, foxes, and such. Before ordering, we had no idea if these would work or not. Based on online reviews and pest control blogs and websites, it's a toss-up as to whether or not electronic pest control actually works. These and a couple other electronic gadgets like this have been installed and on 24/7 throughout our house for about a month now, and since then the number of mice seen has gone from one (or heaven forbid, two) a week to zero. None. Nada. None in the traps, none caught by our cats and used as hacky sacks or worse brought to us in the middle of the night as a present. The ONLY thing that has changed is the addition of these electronic repellers. Our cats might be disappointed at the reduction in play toys, but we are not and neither is our pest control guy. When we set these up, he wasn't able to tell us if they'd work or not, but even he is impressed that after four/five weeks of having these, there has been a major reduction in mice even though it's freezing outside and the mouse population should have gone up inside as mice seek shelter from the weather. These units are easy to operate, and we set a reminder on the calendar to change out the batteries every five to six weeks. Our pets are not bothered by the lights or the frequency of noises put out through the speakers. They are small enough to be put almost anywhere, and are not intrusive in the least. So far they have been a massive help in our fight against Mickey trying to shack up rent free.

Maybe a hard winter is coming because this is the worst year for mice in vehicles at our ranch, we've ever had. I received 1 unit that wasn't working, Email for the company bounced. Contacted the seller who responded quickly, was helpful, and replaced the defective unit really fast. they seem to be working well in the vehicles where mice was the problem. Under the hood of a pickup where packrats were a problem building a nest overnight, I placed one in the cab, and two under the hood. The packrats were not fazed. I've cleared 5 nests out in 5 days. Some mice had gotten in the cab of the truck and they seem to be gone. In this vehicle I've added some PAM spray with powdered hot cayenne which should deter the packrats, it didn't. I tried it loose and it wasn't enough of a deterrence. In two other SUV vehicles, mice had moved in quickly. I combined two units in the cab, front and rear, and one under the hood. I combined this with a large Tomcat tin trap that will hold a LOT of mice. Over 4 days, I collected 10 mice in one vehicle and only two were found alive. In the other SUV, we caught 6 over 4 days. I used Tomcat attractant gel in these traps. To remove live mice, I shake the tar out of the container and daze them. Then I remove and dispatch them. This is the best and most successful method we've had with this problem. It took this combination to make any headway with the problem. Imo, these traps should cost about $10-$11 as you really do need to use more than one. I just strategically place them under the hood and remove them to the inside when driving any of the vehicles. Our air intakes have hardware cloth over them before the air filter to keep the mice out. I give this product 5 stars since it does seem to work on the chipmunks now. It does appear to work well on mice and chipmunks. You have to be a little patient to clear them out, imo. Being battery operated is a real plus and I can see IF I mounted it properly, you could still change the batteries without removal. The ones inside the cabs didn't shut off when driving, so I just shut them off, then turn them back on when I park. The Vendor/company, I now give them 5 Stars. I contacted them and they responded quickly and well. The only success I had with Packrats was to set rat traps and I cleared out a nest of 4. Since clearing out the mice, they haven't come back. This was the 1st time in our years here, that packrats showed up here. If you have serious mice problem, consider adding the Tomcat Tin Cat traps and use the Tomcat gel to clear them from the inside of the cab. I'm using 20 of these devicess overall. The batteries are lasting and they're working. 7/9/20 Update- since my major problem was NOT chipmunks as it had been in the past, but a new one- packrats, I upgraded my rating to 5 stars to be fair to the vendor and removed the negative language concerning chipmunks.

Mice have been building a nest in my Honda Fit a/c box for a couple of years even though I drive my car every day except Saturdays. This year, I had to replace the unit due to damage. Honda recommended peppermint spray which they liberally applied for me. Unfortunately, I really don’t like the smell or taste of peppermint. I bought one of these ultrasonic mouse repellers and things seem to be clear after a couple of weeks. I put it in my lower glove box near the a/c unit since mice have stored stuff in there before. I just bought another repeller for inside the car. Neither of the units I received go into 'standby' ever. Instructions say the battery lasts 65 days of continuous use so hope that’s true.

I like how compact the unit is. I like that it uses batteries. I like that it will work just about anywhere. But the rats ate right next to it, ignored it, walked past all day and night. Maybe it will work for mice, haven’t seen any mice since the rats moved in. Def don’t waste your money on this if rats are your issue.

Purchased a vehicle in 2022. New vehicles wireing harness is now wrapped in a soy based material Rodents love it !! Three months after purchasing vehicle parked in driveway for three days my car was totally disabled. Rodents had eaten my wires. I purchased two under the hood Ultrasonic Loraffe Rodent Repellents and as of today almost two years later I have not had any problems.
