PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: Sounding device which releases an annoying sound moles, gophers, voles, rats, chipmunks, mice and other ground dwelling animals don’t like. Animals like moles and rats avoid these devices because their sound makes it difficult for them to hunt or sense predators.
Most ground dwelling animals rely on their ability to hear as their main sense. This means if you can interfere or overload this sense, they won’t be comfortable inhabiting where the sound is ever persistent.
These units run on 4 “D” cell batteries which typically last 5-10 months. To reduce this cost, you can now get 4 rechargeable “D” cell batteries for around $30 and they’ll last 2-4 months on one charge.
WHERE TO USE IT: Make 1.25″ holes using an EARTH AUGER. It’s important units are down deep, to where their cap is just above ground like this:
RATE OF APPLICATION: Each device can cover up to 11,000 sq/ft (approximately 1/4 acre) when used in empty, wide open fields (yards).
Soft loamy, sandy soil won’t transmit the sound as well so expect only 6,000 to 8,000 sq/ft of coverage for such turf.
Hard pan (like clay or just really dry soil) will help the sound carry much further resulting in larger coverage.
Obstructions like cement driveways and walkways will take away from the effective coverage area and should be noted.
PLACE ALONG FOUNDATIONS AND FENCES TO REPEL GROUND NESTING ANIMALS LIKE CHIPMUNKS AND RATS
To stop foundation dwelling rodents, place units 20 feet apart (no more than 30 feet) and 1-2 feet away from the foundation.
PLACE ALONG PROPERTY BORDERS OR ENTRY POINTS TO KEEP UNWANTED ANIMALS OUT
To keep moles and voles from tunneling under your grass, place units where your grass meets pine straw or other mulch. Space them 20 feet (no more than 30 feet) apart to create an “invisible fence” through which unwanted animals won’t enter.
