Like those in pest repellent devices aren't dangerous are they?

damage the human ear, but as long as you don't put a pest repellent device up to your ear or anything you should be fine.

Thanks, how about 3 feet away? I think i'll just put it away farther since on here a lot...

I'm no psychoacoustician, but I doubt a pest repellent could cause damage to your ear from a few feet away.

We sell these at Orchard...believe me, you have nothing to worry about with this device......No innocent pests were damaged in this test.
Let me offer a battery operated "thumper" you shove into the ground to keep gophers away.....they don't work either......

It won't hurt you, nor will it inconvenience the pests much.

I don't know about that Shelly, after some research I've found some pest repellants with a dB rating of 130 and higher.

I'm assuming your referring to Shelly's statement about it affecting people. The SPL is irrelevant if the tone is ultrasonic. You could have a 180 dB SPL device broadcasting at ultrasonic frequencies, and you wouldn't even know the difference.

160 dB SPL in a car, now thats a different story. Pure ecstasy.

Do those devices really work? I'm always catching spiders in my "bug jar" and putting them outside. I may be compassionate but I can't stand the creepy things!

As long as you have a few spiders around you will not have silverfish ( or moths ) eating up your clothes.

In that case, our clothes will be moth-free for as long as we're in this apartment! (We seem to be living in spider central here.)

Thanks all. It wasn't my idea to get one. I'll just keep it going since it does no harm to me.

Now if you want to have some fun,just put it on top of some white paper.
Turn it on and use a magnifying glass and look real close.
Those sounds are music to their ears,and if you get down close you can see them dancing a jig.

Those are called Irish Fleas. We have them on our imported Dunwiddie Killeen manx cats.....

the one "as seen on TV" that Target sells for 30 bucks. It uses the electric wiring system to do whatever it has to do (an electronic signal that disturbs the brain of insects, arthropods, and small mammals like hamsters, according to the brochure). Roaches are gone after 2 weeks. Our pets are chihuahuas and seem unnafected (I will let you know if they attack us in our sleep).

Whoa - for a minute there I thought your post said your pets are chupacabras !
