Pestrol Rodent Free

The Pestrol Rodent Free device offers an innovative approach to rodent management, utilizing advanced ultrasonic and electromagnetic technology to effectively deter rodent activity in walls, ceilings, and open spaces. This solution employs a dual-action approach:

  1. Ultrasonic waves: The device emits high-frequency sound waves that are inaudible to humans but highly disruptive to rodents. These waves create an uncomfortable environment for rats and mice, encouraging them to leave the protected area.
  2. Electromagnetic pulses: By sending electromagnetic signals through your home’s existing wiring, the Pestrol Rodent Free creates an inhospitable atmosphere for rodents throughout the entire structure. This technology penetrates walls and ceilings, reaching areas where rodents typically hide and nest.

The combination of ultrasonic and electromagnetic technologies provides comprehensive coverage, addressing rodent issues in hard-to-reach areas as well as open spaces. This non-invasive method offers an effective alternative to traditional pest control methods, without the use of harmful chemicals or traps.

How to Use

Installation Steps

  1. Choose the Right Location
  • Plug directly into a standard electrical socket
  • Select a central location in the room
  • Avoid placing behind furniture or curtains
  • Preferably near potential rodent entry points

Optimal Positioning

  • One unit covers approximately 120-150 square meters
  • For multi-level homes, install one unit per floor
  • Ensure clear line of sight across the room
  • Place in living areas, kitchen, garage, or basement

Recommended Usage

  • Leave plugged in continuously for best results
  • Allow 2-3 weeks for full pest deterrent effect
  • Observe reduced rodent activity over time

Tips on getting the best results

  1. Cover All Electrical Circuits: The electromagnetic technology only works through one electrical circuit. To prevent rodents from entering your home, install units on every circuit in your house.
  2. Optimal Placement for Ultrasonic Waves: Place the unit in open spaces with minimal obstructions. Ultrasonic waves don’t pass through solid objects or turn corners.
  3. Address Problem Areas: For issues in cabinets or enclosed spaces, use a portable ultrasonic device or a plug-in ultrasonic unit with larger coverage.
  4. Seasonal Adjustments: During winter or flooding, rodents may tolerate the deterrent to seek shelter. If this occurs, unplug the unit for a few days, then reconnect it. This change in environment can startle rodents and encourage them to leave.
  5. Proper Height: Install the unit approximately 0.2 meters from floor level for optimal ultrasonic wave distribution.
  6. Multiple Units: For larger homes or multi-story buildings, use one unit per floor or electrical circuit.
  7. Patience: Allow up to 3 weeks for full effectiveness against rodents. Cockroach control may take longer due to dormant eggs.
  8. Pet Considerations: If you have pets sensitive to ultrasonic sounds, use the pet-friendly mode that disables ultrasonic while maintaining electromagnetic protection.

What is Electromagnetic Technology

Electromagnetic technology is a versatile and powerful approach that has found applications across numerous fields, including pest control. This innovative method harnesses the principles of electromagnetism to create solutions for various challenges, from medical imaging to rodent repellents.

In the field of pest control, electromagnetic rodent repellents utilize the existing electrical wiring in buildings to create an inhospitable environment for pests. These devices work by sending pulsing or shifting signals through the wiring, which are designed to irritate the nervous system of pests, disrupt their ability to gather food, breed, and build nests, and interfere with their communication. The signals are emitted at set intervals to prevent pests from developing a tolerance.

How Electromagnetic Rodent Repellents Work

Electromagnetic rodent repellents function by sending pulsing or shifting signals through the electrical wiring of a building. These signals are designed to:

  1. Irritate the nervous system of pests
  2. Disrupt their ability to gather food, breed, and build nests
  3. Interfere with their communication

The signals are emitted at set intervals to prevent pests from developing a tolerance.

Scientific Support

Several studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of electromagnetic pest control:

  1. Professor Danthanarayana’s 2003 research at the University of New England found that electromagnetic pest control devices adversely affect rodents’ food and water consumption.
  2. A 2002 study by Genesis Laboratories in Colorado, USA, showed that electronic repellent devices can effectively repel certain pests in controlled environments. The study noted changes in feeding patterns when the signal location was altered, indicating that mice were aware of and responding to the signal.
  3. H. Shytel Glover’s 1997 cockroach test demonstrated that electromagnetic devices not only repel roaches but also have a residual effect for approximately 30 days after removal.

What is Electromagnetic Technology

Ultrasonic rodent control is a pest management technology that uses high-frequency sound waves to deter pests. Here’s how it works and what research says about its effectiveness:

How Ultrasonic Rodent Repellers Work

  1. Emit high-frequency sounds above human hearing range (typically 32-62 kHz)
  2. Use variable pulse generators to produce fluctuating sound waves
  3. Aim to disorient, startle, and frighten away rodents and cockroaches
  4. Some devices replicate dominant male rodent sounds to discourage others

Key Features of Ultrasonic Devices

  • Plugged into electrical outlets
  • Placed about 0.2 meters from floor level for optimal coverage
  • Require unobstructed areas as ultrasonic waves don’t pass through solid objects
  • Designed to cover specific areas (e.g., living rooms, hallways)

Scientific Studies on Effectiveness

Several studies have investigated the efficacy of ultrasonic pest repellers:

  1. Kansas State University review: Confirmed repellent effects and reduction in mating and reproduction for various insects.
  2. University of British Columbia study: Found that ultrasonic signal was as aversive to rats as a painful electric shock.
  3. Denver Wildlife Research Center study: Observed decreased food consumption in areas with ultrasound devices present.

How long can your units operate for? We have an old unit plugged in for at least 10 years now and just want to know if we should update it with a newer model. Darren Hoste asked on 18 January 2025

Hey Darren,
The Pestrol Rodent Free can last upwards of 10 years, if the lights are still flashing on the front of the device, then the repelling technology should still be operating.

Will this system work for rats in my ceiling, I have a three bedroom one story house, I thought I would have to install something in the ceiling, but will this be effective, and where would be the best area to place it? Thank you Kerry Pegler asked on 15 January 2025

Hey Kerry,
The Pestrol Rodent Free can get into the ceiling space, as one of the repelling technologies it uses is an Electromagnetic Pulse which will travel through the wiring of your home. If the ceiling space has sufficient wiring, it should scatter the rodents in the roof. The best area to place the device would be in a room below where you're hearing majority of the rodent activity.

Can I use it in an outdoor cabana? Rats were spotted inside the cabana roof. Kate asked on 8 January 2025

Hey Kate,
The Pestrol Rodent Free is designed for indoor use, so long as the unit isn't exposed to the elements it should be fine. Provided the cabana has sufficient wiring in the roof space on the same circuit where you would plug the unit in, this should help flush the rats out by using the device's electromagnetic function.

Will the unit be effective in repelling rodents if the room they’re most active in only has wiring in one of the walls? The affected room is an old garage conversion with no outlets within the space however it shares one wall with the main house Jordan asked on 4 January 2025

Hey Jordan,
If the problem area is within that wall cavity, then yes, the Pestrol Rodent Free would work in that scenario, but if the problem is inside the garage itself, perhaps an open-air unit would be more suitable.

I would recommend our UltraGuard or the 360 Rodent Repeller

Hi, I have rats in my roof. Where would I place the device in my house to get rid of them? I gather in the roof? If I can get power to there? My walls are made of gyprock sheeting. Carmen Carroll asked on 19 November 2024

Hey Carmen,
The Pestrol Rodent Free utilizes electromagnetic functions to reach into wall cavities and ceiling spaces. The effectiveness would be deteremind by how much wiring is up in that space.

If you have a power point, or are able to run power up there, you could plug the Rodent in the roof, but it wouldn't be strictly necessary, you can plug it in inside the home in an area where you here the most rodent activity. If the wires from that outlet go across the same circuit as the ceiling, the electromagnetic would reach up there as well.

Failing that, if you can plug something inside the roof space, the Pestrol 360 Rodent Repeller would be another good option.

  5. Bought this product in 2020 we had a plague of mice on our property as well as some rats living in the roof space. Within 6 months all were gone. Moved it to the garage and attached office where we had a similar problem not only did the rodents disappear but a colony of hybrid bees left as well. This was an unexpected result as I am highly allergic to bees and couldn’t utilise the space. Anyway I have returned it to the house because another mouse family has been moving in. Seems to be working again. The joys of living in Western Tasmania. I highly recommend this Pestrol unit as being effective and safe. It has had no effect on our two dogs and two cats, all are useless in the rodent control business

  8. I installed my unit about two weeks ago and it seems like the product works as described.
    I have an awesome cat who loved bringing me its prize mouse on the occasional hunt. I guess she now needs a new hobby!

    My main problem was with a possum that would enter my ceiling and absolutely run a riot.

    The pestrol seem to have actually scared it away.. I haven’t heard it since I installed the unit… Pestrol is a good investment.. finally a company that doesn’t pull your chain with misleading promises.

    I noticed the build quality of the unit and it made me optimistic immediately. You can tell its not just cheap junk.

  9. This is the 3rd unwed have bought. We have 2 in the house. One up and one downstairs with the 3rd in the garage. Since installing we haven’t had any unwanted visitors. You wouldn’t even know the units are active. They quietly work away and do a great job.

  10. Units worked really well and got rid of my problems within a week, just leaving them on now to deter any other intruders.
    Would highly recommend this product.
