Battery Operated Under Hood Ultrasonic Rodent Repellent for Cars, Pack of 2

We purchased the Loraffe Pack of 2 Under Hood Animal Repeller Battery Operated Rodent Repellent Ultrasonic Rat Strobe Light Mouse Deterrent for Car Engine Garage Attic Warehouse Indoor Pest Control, Vehicle Protection as we had a 2006 Honda Civic Hybrid (just traded in on a 2021 Subaru Crosstrek) and also a 2016 Honda Pilot. Mice were getting up in the hood and above the hood insulator pad of both the Pilot and the Civic, and building a nest in the blower fan housing (above the cabin filter) of the Civic. WE had tried EVERYTHING, mainly pillow batting soaked in Peppermint Oil, but once the oil evaporated/dispersed, they came right back! We're trying the Loraffe Under Hood Animal Repeller Battery Operated Rodent Repellent Ultrasonic devices as it was getting expensive to keep replacing the hood insulator assemblies. Very easy to mount in to the Pilot and the new Subaru; instead of using the ties included, I used heavy duty exterior grade Velcro stuck to the back of the devices and placed the other Velcro side on a firm plastic area that was easy to access when the hood was open. It seems that the mice were getting into the engine compartment and then climbing up the firewall to access the hood insulator. As a precautionary measure, I then used some other wire ties and attached a short length of aluminum decorative type chain that I had to the device's mounting holes on one end in the event that the Velcro fails and the device comes loose and drops. We shall see how these devices work before replacing the hood insulator on my Pilot (the danged mice stripped the fibers out of the insulator on the Pilot and had carried it over to the Civic when we had it!! Don't want to take any chances with a new car in the carport! Update4/21/2021 after 2 weeks using the devices in 2 cars:. Picture shown is a BEFORE picture of area underneath the engine cover on a 2016 Honda Pilot. I'd forgotten to check under the engine cover that snaps on to posts above the engine. I had to order another engine cover assembly due to an overly enthusiastic mechanic and to mice chewing the 4 rubber grommets that slip over the posts on engine. When the new engine cover arrived, I took the old one off and there was no sign what-so-ever of any mouse activity under the engine cover, nor in the hood insulator yet! I also have used an aluminum adhesive HVAC tape on the hood insulator (placed on the upside between insulator and the metal hood of the vehicle and placed the battery powered ultrasonics device, along with the 'promotional' 12V device sent by the company along the back firewall where the mice were crawling up into the hood area. Same placement on our new Subaru. I check every morning when I turn the devices off for the day (turn them on at sunset). So far, no mice and I'm very happy with the units!

I had regularly scheduled maintenance completed on my vehicle, went home, parked it for the night and the very next day the check engine light comes on in my car. Thought it was odd, so I take it back to the mechanic. Come to find out, something(s) had chewed through 10 wires, some of the plastic on the battery compartment, and even the insulation that surrounds the battery. $850 worth of damage in one night on a car that is driven EVERYDAY! Immediately researched repellents. I purchased these based upon the overall positive reviews, price, and the fact that you get two in a pack. I am not certain if I can contribute it to the devices alone (I bought a liquid repellant, too), but all-in-all, the combination has left me completely satisfied. I did have some minor chewing on a portion of the plastic cap that covers the positive charge on the battery, but I repositioned one of the devices for more coverage with the strobing lights and have had no other damage since then (also positioned two cheap dollar store mirrors to help reflect the light for even more coverage). I did not permanently mount these under the vehicle's hood. I just place them near the areas they have chewed (or are likely to chew) every night. Ultimate test came over Christmas as the car sat unattended for six days. Came home to no damage and the batteries are still good. Wish I'd known about these sooner. For $45.00, I could have saved myself an $850.00 headache. These come highly recommended and I'm going to purchase another pack just as a backup. Update: I am on day 62 of owning/using these devices and still no chewed wires or plastic. Also, I'm attributing it entirely to the under hood repellers. I ran out of spray, but the critters haven't returned, even when temps dropped to the 20s. The batteries are still going strong, too. It says they last for 65 days, but I haven't permanently mounted the devices, so they are turned off when I leave for work and are not turned back on until I get home or it is dark (no issues with critters during the daylight hours). Weekend use fluctuates. Sometimes they remain on all day, but sometimes they aren't used at all. I'm sure that has contributed to the extended life of the batteries. Still highly recommend.

So far so good I believe it’s scaring the rats off

Purchased as a preventative as opposed to getting rid of rodents (no current infestation). I am using inside my travel trailer which is stored outside in a RV storage facility (covered but not indoors). If I have no infestation in the future months I will presume the units are working. They function as advertised and they come with instructions which is sometimes a rarity on Amazon products. Battery installation is simple and advertised battery life is 65 days which is very good IMHO. UPDATE: Just bought two more for my truck. So far, no sign of rodents in our travel trailer. Units are functioning well. Adding to my truck and another to my RV. Raised review from 4 star to 5 star. Update Jun 7-21, one of the units test button stopped working. Unit worked, just not the test mode. Emailed customer service and the unit was replaced. Customer communication and service has been stellar!

Originally bought in January 2021, and was quite happy with the pack of 2, as I have 2 vehicles to protect. Easy to install and position under the hood. I liked the units; the batteries Duracell Alkaline lasted about 3 months and then the unit would give a warning beep to signal low batteries. The one unit is still working fine, but the other no longer works. Seems a bit of corrosion developed in the 2nd unit. One of the contacts appears to have some very minor rust on it, so I cleaned the rust with my Dremel and wiped out with alcohol. Still, no go! Obviously I changed the batteries and checked them to make sure they had enough charge. Very disappointed in this situation! I really liked the units and felt they were helping discourage any late night "visitors!" It gets kind of pricey when you only get 6 months of use out of them. I hope the other one lasts longer. 09/4/21 Thought I would give the seller an opportunity to respond, but have heard no response. Therefore, I am downgrading my review based on lack of customer care/service! Can't recommend the seller or the product!

I’ve tried these units to help combat indoor (not car) mouse infestations, placing them under the sofa, in closets & cupboards, etc in conjunction with using plug-in ultrasonic units with LED lights, also deploying peppermint oil, cinnamon oil, aluminum foil and motion-activated camp lanterns. I’m losing the battle, almost think I can hear the mice giggling at my efforts. Just ordered humane traps (hard for me to make happen given severe disabilities) but I’ll try then I’ll sadly give up on humane efforts and go for traditional traps. Wish it could be otherwise but I can’t live with the copious mouse poop these little creatures produce.

I had a mouse inside the house (yuck) that highly panicked me when was discovered. I'm not afraid of them, I just see them as disgusting creatures, although cutes somehow. For the droppings, I could infer that probably got into the house from beneath the cooker. I moved in recently and the cooker is kind of old, although it works fine and is very clean. I immediately looked for solutions and I bought some Victor's electronic traps (worked like charm) and these repellent boxes to pair with the traps. These were very easy to set up and the instructions are clear and with a very adequate font size, unlike other manuals/instructions with a font size almost unreadable. I'm not going to use the boxes in a car since I haven't discovered signs of mice in the rest of the house, including the garage. I'm going to place them on the crawl space today (I was waiting for the traps to caught the mouse/mice) and wait for them to do their job in case there are more around (there should be others according to the experts). Let's see what happen next, but I'm excited with these repellent boxes.

easy to work, stays in car while driving....Nice
