For every 1000 sold, we've had less than 2% returned as ineffective.

We hope that most problems will disappear within a few days. However, if the rodents have already built a nest in your house, they are unlikely to desert their young until they are old enough to move

Fortunately, rodents mature quickly and the babies will be fully grown within a month. If you suspect that there is a nest in your house it may be worth using traps as well, but remember that traps alone do not provide a long-term solution to your problem (see Why not just use traps and poison?)

If money's no object then there's no doubt that the more you throw at the problem, the better. Combine 2 or more devices with traps and/or single room-by-room ultrasonic devices.

We stock a great range of Humane traps, both lethal and non lethal, to use with the 'Whole House' device

• Electronic mouse killer - makes a clean kill and allows easy disposal of the body.
• Humane traps - click here - live traps - no need to kill the rodent.
• Electronic rat killer - click here - makes a quick, clean kill of rats and allows easy and hygenic disposal.
• Rat cage Trap- click here - Humanely traps rats with minimum of fuss.

Our Rat and Mouse pest repellers have not been found to affect cats, dogs, birds, reptiles, amphibians or children. The device may affect rodent pets such as gerbils, hamsters or chinchillas.

If you do have such a pet, it's advisable to rehouse them while the device is switched on - either outside/in a shed (at least 2m away from any wiring connected to the house) or with a friend or neighbour.

Either in the kitchen or alternatively where you see most rodent activity. If you want to find where the mice or rats are coming from then try using our Rodent Tracker Dust to ensure optimal placement of your repeller.

Traditional methods leave a lot to be desired. Poison is a danger to children, pets and wildlife. The rodents die in your walls and ceilings leaving a bad smell and a dangerous hygiene problem.

However, by far the biggest weakness of traps and poisons is that they very rarely provide a long term solution to your problem: as soon as you've killed a mouse or rat, you've created a vacancy for another one to move into your house. Because they breed so fast, it's very difficult to achieve a permanent solution using the expensive methods offered by your local council or pest controller: if you've had rats or mice once, the chances are that more of the beasts will frequently be sniffing around your property looking for a nice place to live. If you leave traps or poison, you're also leaving a highly-scented bait that will attract more rodents in.

Our Rat and Mouse pest repellers will not affect any electrical equipment like computers or burglar alarms.
