The problem with rodents worries many owners of apartments and private houses. These animals not only spoil things, but also spread diseases that are dangerous to human life. Fortunately, today a large number of rodent repellers have appeared, the operating principle of which is based on the emission of electromagnetic or ultrasonic waves. The device emits a wave of a certain frequency and amplitude, which has a negative effect on the senses of large and small pests, forcing them to leave the occupied areas.

When choosing a repeller, you should pay attention to the following characteristics:
- Power. A parameter that directly affects the operating range of the device. If we are talking about ultrasonic repellers, then it should be remembered that the acoustic wave is not able to pass through walls and spreads within a limited space. In turn, radiation from electromagnetic devices can spread through walls, simultaneously expelling rodents from the voids of partitions.
- Distribution range. Ultrasonic repellers, compared to electromagnetic repellers, have a larger area of propagation of the acoustic wave, which reaches about 400-1000 square meters. m. In turn, magnetic models are limited to 200 sq. m, however, they give a more uniform field that does not deviate from the spread when encountering obstacles. Before making a choice, pay special attention to the environment in the “cleaned” room.
- Sound pressure. The higher this parameter, the more effectively the repeller works. The optimal pressure indicator varies in the range of 110-120 dB - when choosing a device, proceed from these values.
- Power supply type. Repellent devices powered by electricity usually have high power and a larger wave coverage area. In turn, autonomous devices are more convenient to place in non-electrified rooms, but their efficiency will be lower than that of stationary models.
- Operating frequency, which must be strictly above 20 kHz. To determine how accurately the repeller reproduces this parameter, you need to turn the frequency control to minimum and listen - if the device makes a squeak, it means that the technological requirements are not met.
The best repeller manufacturers
Before a detailed review of the list of the best, it is worth mentioning the leading companies in this market segment.
- "Tornado". One of the oldest manufacturers on the Russian market, developing traps for 25 years. It enjoys a reputation as a distributor of inexpensive and very effective repellers of various power levels.
- "EcoSniper". A young Russian company that started operating in 2013. It is interesting because in such a modest time frame (only five full years) it managed to break into the top in sales of traps in the country.
- i4Technology. The company that owns the most famous brand of repellers “Grad” in Russia. Engaged in the development of a wide range of special traps that are very popular among consumers.
- Weitech. The Belgian company is one of the few representatives from abroad that has managed to gain a foothold in the domestic Russian market. It has gained popularity due to its commitment to humanism: Weitech traps do not require the involvement of poisons in the process of repelling rodents - their effectiveness is achieved solely through the creation of an ultrasonic barrier.
- SITITEK. A Chinese corporation engaged in the production of household appliances and electronics for two decades. In 2013, the official sales representative office of the company was opened in Russia. It is a strong middle peasant in the domestic market in terms of sales of rodent repellers.
- Chiston and Co. Another representative of Russia, who launched production back in 1991. Having started out as suppliers to the military-industrial complex, mechanics and electronics, the company gradually moved into the development of household goods. It is one of the segment leaders in the production and sales of rodent repellers.
Powerful devices get rid of pests and rodents faster
And again a mistake - the speed of expelling pests does not depend in any way on the power indicator of the repeller. It's wrong to think that the LS 919, designed for outdoor spaces, will perform much better indoors.
The devices operate on the same principle: it takes time for the effects of ultrasound to become unbearable and for rodents and cockroaches to leave the premises. This effect is achieved by continuous operation of the device for 2-3 weeks. Acoustic attack, panic - these instincts force rats and other pests to look for a safer place to breed. Therefore, all uninvited “guests” will leave.
It is impossible to immediately check whether repellers work. After turning on the module, there will be no panic “in the ranks of the enemy”, mice and rats will not rush out, they will leave the home gradually. Moreover, some animals periodically return and check whether the dangerous effect remains or not. And if you turn off the device, all the rodents will return.
Conclusion: Increased power does not affect the rate of expulsion of rodents. Correct installation of devices is important. Ultrasonic repellers are placed so that there are no obstacles in the path of the waves that absorb radiation. If the room has a lot of soft surfaces, partitions, furniture, you will have to take 2 or more devices, the power of which corresponds to the footage of the room, warehouse, etc.
The best electromagnetic rodent repellers
Unlike ultrasonic repellers, the action of electromagnetic devices is based on the creation of a single magnetic field of a special kind. It is generated thanks to the home electrical network and spreads throughout the protected area in pulses at certain time intervals. The main advantage of such devices is the virtual absence of interference, since the electromagnetic field, unlike ultrasonic waves, can “pass” through the wall. The disadvantage is expressed in the small area of action - the radiation of the most powerful devices can cover only up to 200 square meters.
Ultrasound power affects its effectiveness
Absolute nonsense! Sounds and ultrasounds are different physical phenomena with their own wave vibration parameters. People do not hear ultrasonic repellers, but insects and animals catch them.
Mice, rats, and other rodents clearly distinguish noise waves with a frequency of 1 GHz. For them, this is a real acoustic attack, in which their nerves are tense to the limit and there is only one instinctive feeling - to run.
A person cannot hear wave vibrations up to 20,000 Hz. This means that if the device is audible, it will harm not rodents and pests, but the owner himself.
Conclusion: High-quality EcoSniper repellers operate in the range of 18-70 kHz (written in the instructions). This is quite enough to expel uninvited “guests”.
Flaws
Does the device have any disadvantages? I would like to believe that it is not. But we all understand perfectly well that there are no ideal things.
There are many restrictions here:
- You cannot bathe an animal in the device;
- the device cannot be removed, you must walk in it constantly;
- The action begins, according to manufacturers, after 2-4 weeks.
The last one is the biggest drawback. If the device begins to operate only after such a long time, then the animal is left without protection from fleas. Accordingly, the use of other means is required - drops, suspensions, flea collars. These are additional expenses that the dog owner was trying to avoid.
From a health point of view, everything is also ambiguous. Some animals under the influence of ultrasound begin to behave restlessly or, on the contrary, become apathetic and stop playing. If we remember that prolonged exposure to ultrasound is detrimental to a living organism, then the recommendation to wear it without removing it begins to worry dog owners.
And the last drawback is the cost. A flea device with ultrasound is much more expensive than drops.
Homemade devices and folk remedies
Ultrasonic fly repeller
There are devices and traps that you can make yourself. For example, an ordinary plastic bottle will make an effective trap. To do this, you need a bait liquid, tape, rope and the bottle itself.
DIY wasp trap
Among folk remedies, kerosene and boric acid are often used. And for those who understand electronic circuits, a good solution to the problem could be to independently assemble an ultrasonic bee repeller. It is compact in size and runs on a Krona battery. The basis of the circuit is an asymmetrical multivibrator based on two transistors npn and pnp type.

The main disadvantage of the device is its short range (1-1.5 meters).
Important! You should not abuse the use of homemade devices, since it is impossible to verify its compliance with radiation standards.
When exterminating insects, safety precautions must be observed. It is best to treat nests in the evening, when the wasps have returned home. To be extra careful, it is recommended to wear additional clothing and gloves. After using chemicals, wash your hands thoroughly.

What fleas are not afraid of: don’t be fooled!
There are also persistent myths about influences and devices that fleas are not afraid of, no matter how much advertising agents shout about it. For example, it is almost impossible to repel fleas from indoors using various ultrasonic devices or means that generate electromagnetic waves. Advertising for such devices today is massively distributed through all means of communication, but practical experience in the use of these means does not confirm their effectiveness.
Fleas are also indifferent to all kinds of prayers and conspiracies, which are still popular among the older generation. Perhaps somewhere in the outback today they are trying to remove parasites using such methods, but in practice it has been tested: they all do not work.

Who are fleas?
Before you learn how to cure a bite and destroy the cause of its occurrence, you should understand who fleas are.
Fleas are parasitic insects whose bites are dangerous to humans and animals. Despite the fact that they are selective in choosing a host, they can nevertheless live and feed on the blood of not only humans, but also animals. Dog fleas, for example, prefer dogs, as well as foxes and wolves. These parasites are transmitted to humans from animals: cats, dogs and others; they are not only unpleasant, but also bite painfully.
It should be noted that there is a human flea that by nature feeds on blood. Such an insect cannot live long on a human body. Parasite bites are dangerous. They jump on people and bite them, after which they feed.
The human flea is quite large in size and reaches 3 millimeters in length. She can jump 50 centimeters in length. The body of these parasites has a laterally flattened shape. Fleas in humans easily move among hair, but they cannot live there for long, just like on the body of cats or dogs.
But, despite the fact that the flea is human, it can often be found in cats or dogs.
Human fleas, despite the fact that they look almost the same as other species, can be distinguished. This can only be done by an entomologist under a microscope. Parasites of this species look like small brown grains. They can be seen on the floor or body. They are very common in the hair on people's heads and can be confused with lice, but their bite is different. Fleas are more mobile and can jump.
Flea larvae are similar in appearance to fly eggs. They are white, small in size, and have a worm-shaped body.
Bites from adults are dangerous, regardless of the species: cat, human or dog, since they all feed on blood. They bite warm-blooded animals and humans. For most of their lives, parasites are found in secluded places where humans, cats and dogs are present. In such areas they multiply, larvae develop, the main food of which is: rotting organic remains and flea excrement. As soon as the fleas get hungry, they jump on a person, where, having pierced the skin with their proboscis, they begin to drink the blood of a person, cats and dogs, leaving a bite. Having had enough, the flea leaves the human body or animal.
The average lifespan of bloodsucking fleas is several months, however, the maximum flea can live is up to 1.5 years.
In addition to human fleas, the following can be transmitted to people: cat, dog, rat, and rabbit fleas. However, they all attack humans when their natural owners are not around. They bite humans as well as animals. Flea bites are dangerous because they transmit various diseases. Cat fleas are smaller than human fleas, but they are more common. Especially if the cat not only lives at home, but also goes for walks. Cat fleas often live in hallways and basements, so the animal can bring them into the house on itself. Accordingly, as soon as at least one bite is noticed on the animal’s body, you should carefully examine the pet and take action.
If a specialist said it, this is the only truth
And another myth - on TV they showed another “researcher” in a white coat and he said that the ultrasound of only one device from a certain manufacturer helps. All other devices are rubbish. And so, gullible owners of dachas and apartments buy models at exorbitant prices, without even thinking about whether ultrasound, designed to expel cockroaches from rats, works.
But why pay more and be deceived? Our online store offers high-quality EcoSniper repellers for everyone and any situation. A wide range allows you to choose devices for expelling rodents and influencing mosquitoes and flies. With our repellers, you don’t have to check whether ultrasound helps against stray dogs or whether the child will be scared again...
Call! We will select the necessary devices and give many reasonable recommendations for installation and use. To get rid of pests, you don’t have to spend a lot; all EcoSniper models are quite affordable, but very effective in impact.
Air temperature unacceptable for fleas
For normal existence and reproduction, certain conditions are required, namely +30, and not higher than +45 degrees. At -10 they stop reproducing, and at -15 they begin to look for a new shelter. Therefore, in winter they are frozen out from everywhere, wherever they are.
Fleas are also afraid of water, but only when there is a lot of it. In this case, they experience oxygen starvation, and accordingly, they begin to die en masse. When bathing cats and dogs, you probably noticed that fleas gradually begin to move from the body to the head. Therefore, it must be moistened generously and washed with shampoo, but at the same time, do not forget about the ears. To prevent water from getting in there, you can insert a little cotton wool into the animal’s ears.
What to look for when choosing
When choosing a repeller, you should know the principle of its operation. To get maximum benefit and achieve the desired results, pay attention to the technical specifications:
- Power (it can be from 80 to 135 decibels), frequency of radiation and shape of the emitter, because all these 3 factors affect the range. The decisive criterion is the latter due to the fact that focusing the correct direction of the beam depends on it, which allows you to concentrate the flow of energy.
- The effectiveness of the repeller is also increased by light radiation. This element distracts the dog. It is advisable to give preference to repellers with a flashlight. Such models come in regular or strobe modes.
- Device type – stationary or portable (portable). Stationary ones are well suited for cottages, parking lots, warehouses. In addition to wild dogs, they are good at repelling foxes, crows, cats and other warm-blooded animals. It is preferable to choose a stationary one with a motion or heat sensor.
About Tornado 800
We purchased 10 pieces of Tornado OG 08-800 for a meat processing plant.
