T3-R Triple High Impact Mice, Rat, Rodent Repeller

This is an excellent rodent repeller! I am using it to keep rats from pillaging my orange tree. At first it did not do much. I sent an email to the seller and they told me that, since I am using it outside the sound from the device is dispersing too much. They advised me to place it inside a bucket. I put in the back of a 5 gallon bucket and pointed the open end at the tree. Now the tree is unmolested. I went from losing 10 oranges a night to zero loss. As a bonus my dogs aren't going nuts in the yard as there are no rats to set my 4 legged crack heads off. The product does the job and the customer service is excellent!

I typically do not do reviews, however have been so pleased with how these worked, I wanted to spread the word on how well these perform.Recently, we have seen a major increase in Norway rats. We live next to a pasture that is now under development in a large metropolitan area. We could not go out in our backyard without having our dogs a leashes, because there were so many rats in the backyard.We called an exterminator and had 4 bait boxes set outside as well as 2 in our attic. He told me it would take a while to start seeing a difference, as the rats had to eat the bait, then feed the babies, but this should work and the bait should last 6 months. Of course, this wasn't a quick enough resolution for me. I raise show dogs, and don't need diseases, fleas, etc, spread by the rats. I searched for more answers and found several websites stating when the infestation is bad, multiple repellents need to be used. I researched the ultrasonic repellers, and really liked what I saw with the T3-R. I ordered 2 of them at the end of the week, one for our patio area, and one for the pool equipment/storage building area and they arrived that Saturday. The directions were very easy to understand, and I had them set up in just a few minutes.I had read reviews that stated the frequencies didn't hurt the dogs ears, and for my older dogs, it did not...I have a young male, and he whimpered a little for a few days when I would let them out back, so I would turn them off when he was outside. Within a week, he became accustomed to the sound, and we no longer have to turn them off.The Friday before we received these units, I had the exterminator back out to check the bait traps, and ALL 4 OF THE OUTSIDE BAIT TRAPS WERE STRIPPED TOTALLY CLEAN!!!!!! These are the large outdoor bait stations that you see outside restaurants and hold 3 bait "logs." The exterminator stated he had NEVER seen the traps cleaned out so thoroughly that quickly, and he confirmed that they had only been out 2 weeks. He refilled the stations, and said he was interested in finding out if these worked, and asked me to call his personal cell phone if they did. I've got to call him and let him know we are thoroughly pleased with the results we have seen since we added these. The exterminator left a key to the bait stations so we could check them ourselves, and it has been a month now, and the bait has not been touched!I would say within 3-4 days, we stopped seeing evidence of the rats in the back yard, and the dogs lost interest in hunting the varmits. We also had a couple of storms that dumped 7-8 inches of rain within a 12 hour period, and as long as these units are not sitting in puddles of water and have some sort of overhang to block some of the water, these units have continued operating perfectly.Because of my strong desire and aversion to the rats, I had emailed the seller 2-3 times, and I have to say the customer service has been excellent! I am planning on ordering 2 more so I can have complete coverage around the entire exterior of my home. This area is seeing a lot of building and development, and I'd rather the rodents go somewhere else. From speaking to our neighbors, there have been rat issues in our neighborhood for the last 30 years...obviously, we weren't told this when we bought the house...so it's all out war on these 4 legged Devils!Thank you for giving me back our backyard! These have done everything they were stated to do!

Unfortunately, we had high hopes for this for pest control on the lower level of our home. It came with several sheets of paperwork asking to directly contact the seller for advanced pest control needs rather than leaving a bad review. That should have set off alarm bells (though I wouldn't be able to hear them anyway over the noise this thing makes). We turned on the duo setting, which is the recommended setting for our needs. Our dog is the only family member who seems not to hear it but she eats dryer sheets and human hair as snack food, so I'm not putting a lot of trust in her reaction to the unit. It makes such high pitched piercing sounds (along with a much more "PLEASANT," grating, nonstop clicking) that it actually makes our ears hurt. We can't tell if it's working because we can't be on the same floor of our house with it when it's on and since we've only had it for about 5 days we wanted to keep track of pest activity compared to before and after using this thing. My mom gave up her bedroom and is sleeping on the couch upstairs waiting out the recommended "16-day mark" for pest control. My 11-year-old literally peed off the porch last night rather than use the downstairs bathroom while the upstairs one was occupied because this thing is so obnoxious. The only pest control we can tell it achieves is making the area where it's used so inhospitable to humans that you don't know if you still have pests or not. I wish I could leave a better review, because the seller seems genuinely interested in making sure the unit works well, based on these four pages of paperwork asking you to contact them for a "second step solution," which also makes me wonder why they don't offer that in the first place rather than this product. Also, unrelated to the sounds the unit makes, it has a really short cord (I feel like the description said it comes with a 6 foot cord?) so unless you're planning to run an extension cord to where you're using it, plan on keeping it within a couple of feet of a power outlet. On the plus side, it seems easy to use, but since it causes actual ear pain to be on the same floor of the house because of the sounds the unit makes, we're returning it ASAP.
