Mice infestation is a common phenomenon in this part of the world or any part of the world as you can find rats and mice everywhere among other pests. Mice infestation is particularly irksome because of the after effects, and they could be quite nasty! Technology has devised many methods to deter mice from inhabiting homes and commercial establishments and some of them are machines and some DIY methods that people employ by practice. Sound repellent devices are recommended by marketers to keep rodents away including mice and rats. But do they really work? It is a fact that mice dislike bright lights while they are jumpy about any kind of sudden sounds. There are many ultrasonic sound repellent devices sold in the market but none of them have proved to be effective by and large. However the best way to drive them away is to call professional pest control outfits like BBPP, most experienced Mouse Exterminator Kleiburg whose services also extend to nearby towns.
Does sound or light repel mice away?
First of all let us find out how the devices work. as per the manufacturers claims the ultrasonic sound device emit a high-frequency audio wave which is designed to frighten rodents away and that includes rats, mice, moles, squirrels etc. According to them the sound is only heard by rodents and is above human ability to hear them, thus not harmful to them. These machines are available either with main power option or battery operated. Are rodents frightened by the sound? Initially, yes, but in the long run not. After the first startling experience rodents like mice and rats adjust themselves to the sound and get over it thus rendering the device useless.
Buying the machine and using it only at your own discretion because authorities neither recognize them nor advocate the use of them. Pest control devices are not registered by authorities so it is not necessary for the manufacturers to prove their claim that the device is capable of driving mice away with ultrasonic sound waves. Rodents get adjusted after repeated high pitch or ultrasonic sounds so there is no use in buying those devices and using them.
What methods work?
However there are methods that do work when the infestation at a smaller scale. One way of preventing infestation is to stop entry of rodents in to your home. This can be done by plugging holes, gaps and repairing broken windows, structural defectives, and foundation. Keeping the house clean and clean of food scent is another way of discouraging mice from building nests in your. Removing water sources from your outdoor area, cleaning up clutter and debris from yards and trimming grass, plants and trees will deter nest building by rodents. Fallen fruits in your garden and rotten logs left on the ground can be attractive options for mice and you should ensure that they are removed or picked immediately.
