Pest Controller order info...

Pierre...after much frustration with internet search on NorthernTool.com web site, they no longer have that item; however, after talking with a sales rep
(1-800-533-5545), they do offer similar devices, also adjustable for sound intensity, that are most likely a bit advanced from the unit I purchased 10 yrs ago. Ask about items #168426 @ $60, and #167912 @ $49. You need to order a Catalog to view the items, but information is available with the phone call.

They are high frequency devices that I could not hear (not saying much there!), and as mentioned, did work for me. Unfortunately I cannot confirm the operation of current models. I think it would be worth a shot...hope this helps, and good luck. Bob

Re: Rodents

With two clips - one with CBs and the other with birdshot. The first is for non moving targets and the other is in case they charge when wounded.

Blood Meal / Cayene Pepper

This works for larger animals. Not sure if it also works for rodents. Of course you would have to circle the car around the floor with it. And it's cheap. Larger animals get the smell of the blood meal and think that a previous animal has crossed the same path with grave consequenses. And the cayene.......well that should be obvious. Good luck.

Re: Rodents

Bill,

I've never yet had good luck with the .22 shells loaded with birdshot.
I just don't miss the first time, and that takes care of it.

Re: How about this one

Had a farmer childhood pal who would take a card board milk carton, dangle it off twine fill it grain and tie the other end to the hair trigger of his 410 pointed at the milk carton.

It never failed, they would run down the little ramp he made and just crawl right in. wouldn't take long before a couple more of his buddies showed up......well you get the picture

One day his ole horse got curious...from that day on we nick named the ole stud lippy cause that's where he got it.

But really folks, try dried blood placed around and in the car.

It's reccomended for keeping pests out of gardens.

Re Mouse Out

We started using Mouse Out at the mine I work at about 4 years ago.If properly used it works great. It is a spray on grease type lube. How to use this on a nice car would be tough. Although it works great!
