Patagonia Pete Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Read the reviews (looks like the same device) ... some woman said the spiders started doing push ups right in front of the unit!! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01HM6CO5I/ref=psdc_3737951_t1_B072B71JX5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Riot Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 That is an "infomercial", not a news article. BUT, I have used electronic pest repelling units in my homes for years and they do make a difference. I am not sure about the one above but the devices that I have in my home in Oregon that I also used in Sacramento and Concord, NC do help keep pests out. I do not recall the name of the manufacturer right now but I got them at Home Depot and they were not cheap. How do I know they work? Because my home has none of the pests that my neighbors have had in many years. I plugged a unit in to each circuit in my home and they use the house wiring to transmit annoying frequencies that bugs and rodents can hear. The secret to any of these units is to have one plugged into each circuit. So, look at your breaker panel. If each room has a breaker, then plug a unit into an outlet in each room.

Sixgun Sheridan Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Speaking of pests, if anyone knows of a sure-fire way to get rid of pocket gophers without filling my lawn with dynamite I'd like to know about it. The last time I spent nearly $100 on those poison gas cartridges I realized the gopher must've found a copy of Sportsman's Guide that I threw away and ordered himself a Russian surplus gas mask. .

Managing Pocket Gophers Quote Fumigants, such as aluminum phosphide and gas cartridges, are not very successful for controlling pocket gophers because gophers either sense the poisonous gas and plug the tunnel or the fumigants diffuse into the soil, particularly when it is dry. Pocket gophers reportedly can be controlled by injecting exhaust from an old vehicle without antipollution devices into the burrow for about 3 minutes.

Open up one of the tunnels. Run some water down it. Toss in a handful of calcium carbide, run a little more water to wash it down the tunnel some. Toss a match in.
