.....that you honestly think are a ripoff. You know, the ones you plug in and they say they make a noise the critd don't like?

A contractor I worked for used them in a house we left open to critters for almost a month during a massive remodel. Squirrels and mice had invaded the empty house before we got there as it sat empty a few years. Within the first day, they were all gone and never came back as long as the house was open. IIRC we had 4 on each floor and in the basement.

At 15 bucks a pop or less, if you have electricity in the garage or storage bay, why not try a couple?

My FIL stores antique cars for months at a time and puts a FEW mothballs in the interior and trunk and engine bay. Seems to work for him and these are $100k plus cars.....
