OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Intended for household use. To repel rodents, plug into 120V AC outlet. Do not block
speaker with drapes, furniture or other obstructions. Do not expect immediate results. Do
not open or tamper with this unit.
The Ultrasonic Tool
Ultrasound consists of electronically generated ultrasonic sound waves, broadcast at a
high volume. It can cause rodents to avoid a sound protected area. While the sound can't
be heard by humans, domestic pets, farm animals, birds, or fish, research proves it is
irritating to rodents (including hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs and rabbits), and can cause
them to leave the transmitting area.
What is Ultrasound?
It is sound waves with frequencies too high to be heard by the human ear. The average
person can hear sound waves ranging from 20 up to 20,000 cycles per second, while dogs
perceive them up to 27,000 per second, and the range of other animals is even higher.
When measured electronically, these frequencies are expressed in hertz, defined as a unit
equal to one cycle per second. So ultrasonic sound waves are frequencies over 20
kilohertz.
Using Your Single Speaker Rodent Repeller
•
Place the equipment on a table, shelf or mount on the wall. Best placement is 0.5 to 1m
off the floor with the speaker grill aimed at known problem areas.
•
Ultrasonic sound is highly directional and will be reflected by hard surfaces to literally
fill a room with the sound pressure.
•
The Single Speaker Rodent Repeller should be used in rooms where signs of mouse or
rat activity is observed, particularly in areas where food is consumed, prepared or stored.
Storage areas and paper products often attract mice and rats.
