Loraffe Battery Operated Ultrasonic Under Hood Rodent Repellent for Cars

I was very skeptical of these kinds of products but I was desperate, as my last car was TOTALED by mice and chipmunks only a month ago. The whole ordeal was a nightmare and I needed a solution that worked. I tried peppermint oil bags first and still saw the chipmunks running around the property and around the cars cars as usual, hopping right up under the engine like the little pests they are. Very annoying because those scented bags are expensive and were clearly not working at all. I also put used cat litter underneath the car where I parked and guess what the little buggers did? They brought some if it INSIDE the engine area as nesting material - gross, and another failure. So I bought and very easily installed one of these devices in mine and my husband's cars and walked away not feeling super hopeful about it, but ready to give them an honest try. I wasn't really thinking about it for a week or two until it hit me - I had not seen a SINGLE chipmunk on my entire property since I installed them! I typically see 2-3 running around the front of the house, the back patio, and the vegetable garden at any time. But I kid you not they are GONE. They packed up and moved out! I cannot believe these things actually worked! I am in absolute awe. I bought another one for my garden. shed and I bought the plug in one for my tool shed. I will diligently be checking these spaces and the cars once a month to replace batteries and investigate for rodent evidence to make sure they are still working. I'm so relieved to not have to worry about rodents for a while and I am very hopeful that these are a long term solution. Thank you so much!

After spending literally thousands taking my car almost weekly to the mechanic to fix the wiring chewed on by squirrels, these battery powered units stopped the nonsense. Highly recommend!

So, based on the mostly positive reviews I decided to give these a try. I even went above and beyond to prepare my car, as I had the engine compartment professionally cleaned to get rid of any trace of prior rodent activity. I placed one of these in the engine compartment using the ties, and the other sits in the cubby near the gear shift. For the first couple of months, I didn’t see any activity. However, one day I am driving and my odometer stops working. Then the check engine light comes on followed by the steering indicator light. And about the same time I lose power steering. Took it to our mechanic and sure enough, rodents had chewed through several wires causing the problem. Fortunately it only cost $270.00 to fix. I say fortunately, because our Toyota Corolla had $2,500.00 in rodent damage about seven years prior. Needless to say, these Ultrasonic Rat Repellants didn’t do jack! 8/23/22 I have an update and in turn, I am raising my rating. So, after they didn't work as described, I decided to try them with the sound on (in Test mode). And guess what? After 3 weeks of parking it in the same spot, they did not eat the wires again. In fact, I see no evidence of them being in the engine compartment since the last episode. I will continue to use them with the sound on. If they didn't work for anyone else in the Ultrasonic mode, then try them with the sound on. It has worked for me so far.

I’m very pleased with these under-hood rodent repellents. They’re compact, easy to install, and the battery-powered design makes them convenient to use without needing to connect to the car’s electrical system. The flashing LED lights are a nice additional feature, and having two units makes it easy to cover more than one vehicle or area.

So easy to install batteries. Guide is excellent. Once batteries were in, all the test lights did what they were supposed to do. Put one in our attic, one in a kitchen drawer that is a mouse magnet, one in our barbecue and one in a box with a fire pit glass shield on the deck. Just installed them so hope the rodents hate them! Update December 2023. We have used these for a few months now and haven't heard a mouse in the walls or drawers. We've lived in our country house for 45 years and have put up with the awful smell of dead mice, especially in the bathroom walls. Within a month of installing these repellents, the mice apparently have moved on as there are no mouse sounds anywhere. They are advertised for cars, but work for houses, too. They are spendy, but worked for us and are so much better than poison. We are hoping the mice don't get used to them and will continue to go elsewhere.

This unit works really well for under hood of your car to deterrent rodents from moving in!!! I would highly recommend it if you have that problem.

Dont know how well they work? They flash lights a lot within in a hour, i used them under hood of vehicle I camped in desert n forest a lot, a couple times in desert in areas with more mice running around the mice still got in my engine n i caught them in there a few times n saw them running around, so dont know how well these worked if it kept them away the other times or not, i also left hood propped open like 3-7 inches n when i heard mice in engine i put engine hood all the way up n a few times the mice still went in there, but they didnt hang out in areas they normally do with hood up like on top of engine n on battery building nests, they went in other hidden places like the sides above tire- but keeping hood up worked in other places real good n mice stayed out I glued magnets on back n put one under hood above engine n glued velcrow on one n put it on side of battery So dont know how well they work They should make one with louder more irritating noises n it might work real good I slept in my vehicle so i could hear when mice were running around in engine at night

Before ordering, we had no idea if these would work. Based on research, it's a toss-up. These and a few other gadgets like this have been installed and on 24/7 throughout our house for several weeks, and the number of mice seen has gone from one (or heaven forbid, two) a week to zero. None in the traps or caught by our cats. The only thing changed is adding these electronic repellers. Our cats are disappointed at the reduction in play toys, but we are not and neither is our pest control guy. When we set these up, he couldn't say if they'd work or not, but even he is impressed that there has been a major reduction in mice even though it's freezing outside and the mouse population should have gone up inside as mice seek shelter from the weather. We live in the country, so mice are a given. We have cats and a dog, so we don't want to use any kind of poison since our cats have gotten ahold of a couple of mice. If the mice are poisoned and the cat eat them, it would probably be too late for vet care before we realized what happened. Of course we take all the preventative steps we can like not leaving any pet or people food out, putting out pet safe mice deterrent, etc. There are baited snap traps all over the attic, basement, closets, etc. but mice would still sneak into the house. Even our pest control guy said that without poison baiting, it would be a constant battle since mice can get into a home through the teeniest openings and a house in a place where they have a lot of natural predators is a spot mice will seek out for safety. We live across from a nature preserve with several species of predator birds such as eagles and hawks as well as coyotes, foxes, and such. These little battery powered units are easy to operate. We just had to set a reminder on the calendar to change out the batteries every five to six weeks. None of uur pets are not bothered by the lights or noises put out through the speakers. They're also small enough to be put almost anywhere, and are not intrusive in the least. So far they have been amazing in our constant battle against mice and even a random squirrel, and we highly recommend.

Yes, finally got around to using this item. Kept vermin and unwanteds out of the vehicle motor whilst car was not in use. So will definitely buy again. 👍

El sonido de test funciona pero no permanece para auyentar las ardillas

Okay it is still flashing away after a few months and seems to be working or the cats have picked up their game. Non intrusive in engine bay and cable tied ( zip tied🇱🇷) to solid panel section.
