Does it repel squirrels?

My parents have problems with squirrels eating the engine wires in their cars. Mothballs and dryer sheets (like bounce) have worked for keeping them away. I don't know if this works for squirrels but I still have not seen a single roach since I plugged in the 2 riddex things.

From experience, we know it IS effective for deer and rabbits. Don't know about squirrels. Might be a question for the manufacturer. We like it because it doesn't harm any animals but is effective for deer, which is our problem here.

Hi Lynn,The Yard sentinel does effectively repel deer, squirrel and chipmunks. Although squirrel and chipmunks can often be deterred by the same frequency, deer tend to be effected by the lower end of ultrasonic sound.For best results at repelling multiple species at the same time, try the "continuous sweep" setting. This will allow the unit to randomly cycle through all of the available frequencies rather then targeting a specific pest!Regards,Rick JCustomer ServiceDeal Republic

I can not give you a definitive answer. We use the Green Esteem pole for our hummingbird feeder. Squirrels do not bother it.

Absolutely. I've had it about 3 months, and have only seen 1 squirrel in the backyard. He was running for his life. I am having great luck with it. Before, the squirrels were eating through all of our chair cushions. Haven't lost a cushion since I installed it.

I don't know if it repels rats but it sure does mice. If the package doesn't list rats I would assume it wouldn't, but give it a try, rats don't know how to read so you never know.

I've repelled spiders and other insects. Haven't had the need to repel rodents. I believe in the product reviews I saw quite a few people saying it definitely worked for rodents. I would read through some of the reviews if you haven't yet. :)

No, I don't think it would kill a squirrel. Not enough power behind the shot.

This product was absolutely ineffective when I tried to use it to repel squirrels from a garden. I think it does nothing.

Yes it does.. but you have to spray once per week... Rodents think there is a fox and stay away.. I tried firste mechanicial (traps) then chemical warfare (poison) against Squirrels in the house.. none worked.. this as phychological warware worked!!!

As far as I can tell, it repels nothing. I bought two. One I mounted under the hood. After two weeks they (mice) built a nest on top of it. They other I put in the cab. Rodent droppings persist. SAVE your money

Squirrels are rats with fluffy tails and as such they can chew thru this mesh easily.. NOT saying that they will because they can get all tangled up in the mesh. IT is my firm belief that it will help deter them but will not completely stop a dedicated fruit hungry squirrel. YES i would use it to make it harder for them to get to the fruit

I would not recommend this product as a deterrent of squirrels on any surface.I used it on wood with very liberal applications and it didn't phase the squirrels in the least.

Not sure about squirrels but it does stop birds eating fruits. Make sure fruits are not touching the net.

It is NOT resistant to squirrels... As my "hole-y" lid will attest. Keep it indoors, or spray it with a deterrent.

No, it seemed to work for a while, but the animals got used to it. you need a ton of it and have to reapply constantly. I have quit using this product. I bought those high frequency sound tubes you stick down into the ground. They emit what sounds like a distress call and sends the critters in the other direction. They aren't foolproof, but better than anything else I have ever used for squirrels, moles etc. I only saw 1 squirrel in my yard last summer. Hope this helps.

I do not have a chipmunk problem but hopefully it would deter them as well as it does for squirrels. I'm impressed at how well this works with squirrels.
