DOES THIS PRODUCT KEEP RATS AWAY

Yes it does.. but you have to spray once per week... Rodents think there is a fox and stay away.. I tried firste mechanicial (traps) then chemical warfare (poison) against Squirrels in the house.. none worked.. this as phychological warware worked!!!

It does work for rats. I've noticed a big drop in rat visits in all of the places I used to find their remnants. But as the package says, it only lasts two or three months for a package before the smell goes away.

Yes, it works for mice and rats. You have to make sure it's set to the rodent setting and leave it plugged in all the time. It takes a few weeks to work, but it does work. We had both mice and rats coming in the house. I haven't seen or heard any evidence of either in weeks now.

My best guess is NO. The opening and "maze" through which the mice go is way too small for even a small size rat... It has been wonderful for getting rid of mice problems though!

I have used this in conjunction with expanding foam to thwart squirrels and other rodents from eating through the A/C connection siding hole on the house. Now there is an expanding foam product that is touted to be designed especially to stop rodents from entering a home through a foamed in hole. I have used this along with the copper mesh to further keep out rodents from the house attached garage. Initially you must determine how the rat is entering your shed. If through a hole, the mesh and the aforementioned rodent foam might work. Also, you might wish to contact your local animal control official to further discuss rat elimination using the proven bait process. They too may offer solutions and advice.

Never, I still have a roach problem. This doesn't seem to make a difference. The only thing this keeps away is the pigeons.

Hi, I don't know if it works for rats. My problem is with very smart field mice. There are several web sites that give good advice for rodent problems. I will say I did try a mole sonic device in the ground near my problem area. This is suppose to work for all rodents. It did not work. Maybe you would have better luck. Hope you find an good idea that works. Good luck

I've not had that problem and I'm not quite sure. The plastic covering the top may prevent the rats. I know the wire around the feeder sure helps keep the doves and pigeons out. Good luck.

I've repelled spiders and other insects. Haven't had the need to repel rodents. I believe in the product reviews I saw quite a few people saying it definitely worked for rodents. I would read through some of the reviews if you haven't yet. :)

No. It didn't keep anything away. Not cats, mice, moles, voles, gophers or chipmonks.

It works on mice, but not for rats. I think they have one formalated for rats, tho. Look at the website. That's the best I can offer.

Sorry, never had rats, and don't know if it would work on them or not. Maybe contact manufacturer

This trap is best for rats, but there are similar versions for mice. I found peanut butter to be effective for both.

I don't know why it wouldn't. It seems to deter skunks, rats, and mice -- even the neighbors dog!

As far as I can tell, it repels nothing. I bought two. One I mounted under the hood. After two weeks they (mice) built a nest on top of it. They other I put in the cab. Rodent droppings persist. SAVE your money

Seems to work OK...I keep mine under cover so it does not get Wet... Don't know about HIGH HEAT. Rats are more Weary about NEW things... Mine catches Mice fine... But still waiting for a Rat.... I have tried Peanut Butter and Dog Food... Thinking about Bacon....Of course I also have to Contend with Ants going for the Bait also on Any NON_WINTER time. Not fun!

I don't have rats but I used to manage a pet store. I wouldn't use this for rats. They are so smart and I think they would use there little noses to go underneath. One of my Hedgehogs did that.
