we have had great luck with the repellers that you plug into an electrical outlet.
when new homes were being built alongside our house the field mice all came running to live with us. we had a devil of a time getting rid of them until we tried one of these things. it worked so well that when we had a squirrel problem at our cottage we bought a couple of repellers for there, plugged them in and the squirrels ran away just as quick as the mice did at home.
so i am quite impressed withe them.
i dont recall the brand name but they are about twenty dollars each and worth every penny.
i liked the fact that i didn't have to put out any poison that the pets might get into. good luck!

I have not tried them yet because I believe they will hurt my pet but here is my story:

I keep a clean apartment but what started attracting roaches was when I moved my iguana out of a class cage into a wire cage about 6 feet tall. I began noticing roaches. The exterminator came out but I would not allow him to spray my pets room (seen no roaches there). The exterminator told me that he seen no roach nest but sprayed the apartment anyway. Later, I continued to see roaches and checked my pets room since that was the only room not sprayed. I found the roach nest in a box next to my iguana's cage. They would leave the box and eat my iguana's dropping. The nest was "ugly" with about 24 adult roaches, eggs and baby roaches.

Later, I had roach problem again, checked my iguana's room and could not find roaches in there so I just sat and watched/waited. Seen a roach crawl from under my pets light stand. Took the stand into the bath tub and begin spraying it. Out came another 2 dozen of large roaches, babies and inside were eggs, again, leaving the light stand to enter the cage and eat the droppings.

I sprayed the room and now will invest in roach motels. Good luck.

P.S. If you have them, look for the nest !

I bought a 3 pack at the local hardware store. I guess they work. I haven't seen any pest since I plugged them in. Give them a try, it's only $20.00.

No, they do not. They don'y work on the flying rodents either. The sticky traps worked the best for me. A net for the flying ones.

Crap no. We tried 3 different kinds with no luck. So we mixed some cormeal, sugar, and boric acid powder together in lids and set the back in the cabinets away from pets, and they die when they eat it.

no they are a gimmick. take the money you wish to spend on them & put it to good use, call an exterminator.
