Gardigo. Battery-operated, mobile and highly effective.
You won’t have to get upset by unwanted visits by
martens on your premises. Gardigo Marten-Free Mobi-
le keeps the bad-tempered pests away from your car,
house, garage, barn, loft or arbour. Immediately ready
for use, no power connection and no assembly neces-
sary. The integrated 60-second interval switching pre-
vents the martens from getting used to the sound. Wi-
thout the need for bothersome cabling, this new device
from Gardigo can now be immediately used in all ima-
ginable places. Place. Switch on. Marten-free. It can be
attached in a vehicle with the supplied cable ties or with
screws. Depending on the battery, permanent operation
of at least 6 months.

New electronics means minimal power consumption.
The device emits high-frequency sounds lasting 60 se-
conds at 60-second intervals. These sounds that are
hardly perceptible to the human ear keep the martens
away from the vehicle and rooms. It protects cables,
wires and other rubber parts from marten bites. Please
be aware that the appliance will possibly start in pause
mode and will then switch into power mode. There is
no technical fault.
Caution!
If you want to use the Marten-Free Mobile in
your car, please note that it must be dismantled prior
to the car being washed.
Notice:
If a vehicle or rooms have already been visited by mar-
tens, the animals have most probably left their territo-
rial markings. These odours must be removed prior to
the installation of the marten-free device (in a vehicle
preferably by driving through a car wash).
