This is the greatest video on yt. Ask a question and then answer it in 57 seconds. No small talk, no filler, no sell me something, fantastic. Some 57sec. Videos go on for 15 minutes.
I can only think that some work - and some brands don’t. I wouldn’t write them all off. We purchased the Bezan ones, and since we’ve had no more rodents, or even insects -literally none! Insects may not have ears - but they will feel the vibration of sounds I would have thought. Even Moths disappeared! We couldn’t believe it! Your Video did remind us though that we purchased some cheaper ones (a different brand) some years ago - and hey did not work... Obviously, the less you pay, I would have thought the less likely they would work. The Bezan ones we purchases weren’t the cheapest. They came in a pack of four, and we have one plugged in each room. I suspect one would have little effect.
Wyatt you've just crushed my dreams. I live in an apartment, and I'm constantly cleaning to avoid roaches, bugs, etc. I have new neighbors tho an I've started seeing critters. What to do?
Sorry to hear about pest-y neighbors. Continue to keep areas clean, and trying to seal cracks and crevices is the best approach. Also, it has been so hot. Insects are seeking shelter. It may not be the neighbors. As cooler temps return, your visitors will want to be outside.
since these things do NOT work as advertised (meaning that they don't, at all, and are effectively modern day " snake oil"... Then why is it legal to sell as advertised?! Can anyone answer this question for me? P.S. Thanks for the informative video. I love it when I find a video about a topic or DYI, etc. I'm looking for and the person giving the information doesn't rant and go on tangents. They just get to the point and provide the information I'm looking for. That is much appreciated. Jam on!
We can't answer the legality of selling these products, but the Federal Trade Commission has issued warnings to manufacturers in the past. www.ftc.gov/news-events/news/press-releases/2001/05/ftc-warns-manufacturers-retailers-ultrasonic-pest-control-devices
Yeah this friend used and it seemed to work foir him . The plug in ones for mice and hopefully RATS . At this point I'm soo daaannnggg frustrated I'm probably going to use them
You say allegedly makes sounds that humans can't hear. It's a fact that it does make a sound because if you record it on your phone well it's making the sound you will hear the sound that it makes.
They do work. I know for facts the older models did. My children are grown and we had no pest using them. Older models that is. The newer model ones probably scams.
I saw a review online saying he got more bugs and that the device attracted even more. It doesn't sound true, but I'm asking if it is true anyway, just in case i should unplug the ones i have.
The ultrasonic device that can be set in Australian homes & barns during rat/mice invasions that can prove it works would have the biggest bragging rights of all companies. Have any of these devices ever worked in Australia? Challenge for Ultrasonic Companies!: make a device that works on Australian farms and you'd have worldwide bragging rights!
While some rodents can hear frequencies in the ultrasonic range, a 1995 Nebraska study says that the tested devices had "insufficient repellency." digitalcommons.unl.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1033&context=nwrcrepellants
Straight and to the point, no fluff, less than 1 minute.

How are they allowed to sell it if it doesnt work
Welcome to the real world
They are not very expensive and really not regulated by any agency.
Please tell me you're joking
How do you think scams work? they're literally selling you a LIE!
Ever hear of a mood ring or pet rock? They did nothing but make the inventor rich. 🤑

You got to read the fine print when you buy stuff like that to see what you're getting. It probably tells you there's no guarantee it's going to work
@okstate_ag Well, a warning, obviously, works wonders, lol

Thank you that was very helpful sir❤ I could probably stop buying these ridiculous devices😊
For insects they say the rumble of tones work because they feel it. That's how they hear.

Apparently they come out in attempt to escape

What about rats?
Keeping your house clean is also a myth. I have the cleanest house and still get roaches.
What about for rodents?
