Ultrasonic and Indoor Pest Control

Pests come by their name honestly. When a home suddenly finds itself with insects or rodents, there’s no end of frustration trying to reverse that condition. And while there are certainly a lot of ways to battle the infestation, a lot of approaches include toxic chemicals that make homeowners wonder if the cure isn’t nearly as bad as the problem, especially if you have pets or children.

This ultra sonic pest system works for indoors or outdoors and retails for about 50 GBP

As a result many families try electronic pest control options. Now, you should be aware that these systems don’t have a long history behind them to boast of success. Nonetheless some consumers seem happy with the results they get, so it may be worth a try in the green household.
Electronic pest control comes in two forms – one electromagnetic and one ultrasonic. The ultrasonic system makes a sound that humans can’t hear. These don’t seem overly effective on insects, so they’re typically made to combat rodents or animals that have sensitive hearing. If you chose an ultrasonic system, try to find one that changes its pulse. Like any other noise, pests can get used to the sound. Having a variable sound decreases the chances of that happening.
By comparison the electromagnetic system makes a field of energy around the home that seems to irritate some pets. The overall goal is making the pest’s life so uncomfortable that they look for shelter elsewhere. Like the ultrasonic option, this field goes unnoticed by humans. However, pet owners should be aware that animals may find both the electromagnetic and the ultrasonic system agitating. You may also find that depending on the frequency both these systems may disrupt other devices like alarms, so read over the specifications carefully before buying.
If you’re dealing with things like flying pests, neither of these approaches may help. That’s when some folks turn to bug zappers. A bug zapper uses light to lure the insect close enough to trap them. If you find one that has ionic features, this can even catch dust mites and kill them!

The retail for this system is about 25 GBP

All three pest control approaches have similar pricing, so it really boils down to what you think will work best for your problem, and what product has the best warranty.
