The ladybug's purchased from this vendor did not stay in my yard after they devoured the aphids. I don't know how to make a home for them as the other respondent states he did, however, you should find some information about that on the internet.

Mine hasn't worked for ANYTHING. Deer love it, birds, I'm surprized it hasn't drawn in RATS.worthless.

Hey Jim - I purchased the Victor M792 but it didn't do a thing to deter the mouse problem we had. I also tried the peppermint oil trick that people posted, but that was a farce too - the mice ate the cotton balls we put in the vents! So, I have nothing to advise apart from old fashioned traps.

Hi, I had the very same problem (note had), I cut the blocks in half and laid the pieces (usually underneath the patio) where I believed they "traveled" the most. Voila! they ate all the pieces, after laying a second batch I noticed not all the pieces were gone/eaten, we did not see any more voles/field mice. I left the uneaten pieces in place - no more mice so I have removed the residue.

Hello, When I used the Snake-B-Gone, I just sprinkled the little pellets under tree's, bushes, along the property line. I would use it just like the pellets of the Snail's B'Gone, Hope I have helped and that all of your little slither s stay away. B

The real question is how do you get them to go in? We have one at our lake house that only had one bee while others wreaked havoc on our house. We have one at our home that has none and have drilled into our fence and deck. Maybe I didn't place it in the right place

Most likely to much bait. I was doing that at first. I took a butter knife and just got a dab on the tip of the knife and put it on the rim of the bait hole. Make them have to go all the way to the hole. They have strong smell. They will go for it. Hope it works!

Thats messed up, poor bat. That glue board is super sticky and holds. I use the glue boards flat and inside the tincat trap. But heres something I personally experienced. I placed a tincat trap with the glue board in it in a very mouse infested area just before night fall. Early the next morning I checked the trap, it was empty. There were so many mice caught that night that they urinated them selves loose from the glue. Of corse there was lots of fur too. But it seems that the glue can be loosened with worm soapy water. (the tincat is not effective without the glue boards)

If you simply throw the chunks of poison out onto the patio or around your yard, some of the poison will be carried off and away by other animals .........such as squirrels. If you throw it into the entrance and exit holes the rats use they will push it out of their tunnels. Havoc works well, I recommend threading a wire through the hole that is present in the bait and securing the ends...........sort of forces the pests to eat the poison in place and then you will see the product disappearing ..............and you will know then to keep an eye open for dead rats around your property/ If any of your neighbors have pets or small children a bait box may be a much safer way to go.

Not sure I see much improvement. I ordered 4 units for 3500 house. My major problem is squirrels on the attic. 2 units are placed on the attic, 2 around the house. I do not see mice in the house, but it was not a problem before. I have cat in the house, he used to catch may be 1-2 mice per year I still have ordinary mouse traps on the attic and it would catch 1-2 per month in winter. With those devices - my "mice crop" is definitely reduced, but they are still here :-) But it seems have no effect on squirrels on the attic - I still hear them almost every day.

After the first night deploying the trap I can tell you that several mice got in and yet none were there in the morning. Either they teleported out, evaporated, or escaped. I am going with escape as the most likely option in which case this trap is not helpful or effective. I am going to go with kill traps.

I personally had a conversation with a pro pest control person, and he advised me to try this unit in my crawl space for Pack Rat control. He said that they hate lights at night, which is when they are most active. He specified a powerful strobe lite. They are trap shy after two catches, and so I have to try this method and see if he is right.

I live on the edge of a wooded area on the coast of Maine. My garage has a dirt floor and is easily accessed by rodents--I have tried a combo of peppermint oil full strength, moth balls and am hoping to keep mice out of the car that i leave in there for the winter. If you have any other ideas post them here. I hope it works.

I got one to deter deer which I am happy to say it seems to work. Another was placed to deter armadillos. I'm not real sure how it has affected them. They really did a number on flower beds before I got it set up. I'm not sure about rats and mice. If they are on the list for these give them a shot. Make sure that you set them up correctly. You may also have to set them up tilted down toward the ground and not on the ground. We also have neighborhood cats in our yard unaffected by this machine.

well we have rats from our outback compost pile and other critters around our deck, but nobody ever came inside. I think maybe the magnets are too strong for them to push through. Or maybe they never wanted to come in our house; not sure why they would want to when food is plentiful outside in the summer when we use the screen...
