- Prevent mice, rats and other rodents from causing costly repairs to your vehicle due to wire damage. Rodents are attracted to the heat of the engine bay and like to make it a home. They then tend to chew on the wiring and potentially cause thousands of dollars of damage.
The Mouse Blocker Pro uses ultra sonic frequencies and Strobing LED lights to help deter rodents. It's an easy install and it consumes minimal energy to make sure your regularly driven vehicle's battery stays charged.

I feel it’s important for people to know that this sonar rodent deterrent does in fact work very good. HOWEVER more importantly it will not work AT ALL if any rodents have already moved in before using this device. The same applies to the sonar rodent deterrents sold for indoor use around the home. If the devices are installed as a front line defence, BEFORE the rodents arrive, they are reliable and super efficient. But when used as an attempt to force rodents to leave... well... forget it they make no difference at all.
Thanks for sharing your experience!
AnthonyJ350 I have heard a lot of people say “those devices are a scam they don’t work at all” and I hate that people end up with that mindset. It comes from not knowing the information I explained previously, say a person used it to try to get rid of mice... they end up with that mentality that the sonar’s are useless... unfortunate first time experience caused a naive perspective. That’s all I want others to avoid by knowing this. Also I should mention I have 4 yrs pest control experience under my belt. And as always I hope the info I provided helps people with their rodent prevention adventures.
Nathan Jantz Exactly. You don’t treat an infestation with one method only. Redundancy, redundancy, redundancy to get the original infestation OUT and thereafter, regular maintenance.
My dad was obsessed with chipmunk/rodent control around the property. He hated that the neighbors fed the birds, complained that the feeders attracted rodents. He spoke about stories of how they love to go in cars and chew up the wiring. I never saw any evidence of rodent activity around the house and thought he was letting retirement get to him. It never personally happened to him so I couldn’t understand why he was so preoccupied with this ?I told him that ONLY happens to inactive vehicles that sit for long periods of time. Then ...yes...it happened to me during a visit to my parents house. My car was only in their driveway for about 5 hours! Little vandals made it inoperable!! Had to get it towed off my parents driveway. My Bf and mechanic couldn’t believe how much damage was done in that short amount of time. I remember my father just staring at me with that smug look on his face as they towed my car away 🐭🐿🐀
Eppy VonPeppy Ya it doesn't take much on a modern vehicle to wreck it. The owner's vehicle I did the install in is super happy. None of the mouse traps have been activated around the truck since the Mouse Blocker was installed.
Eppy VonPeppy You and your dad should look into installing this product on to your vehicles.
AnthonyJ350 We has no idea there was anything out there like this!?! Thank you for taking the time to bring products like this to light 💡
You sure your dad didn't slip away for 20 minutes with a wire stripper/cutter to teach you a lesson? ;)
parents...they always know best dont they
Peppermint oil.
You can either buy the pre-made packets (they use them in tractors..available at farm supply stores) or make them yourself.
I let old teabags dry out, pour a bunch of peppermint oil in them and put them in the cab and up near the battery compartment.
Rodents hate peppermint oil. They will stay away.
Thanks for sharing
I have had a problem with chipmunks and/or mice nesting under the hood of my car. They chewed my wiper fluid hose and it cost me $80 to replace. I used 3 bars of Original Scent Irish Spring in sandwich bags with slits cut in one side to allow the scent out. I cleaned out the existing nesting material under the hood and put the three bars in with the slit sides facing up. It's been over three weeks and no signs of new nesting activity.
UPDATE: 5 weeks and still good. Change bars when scent fades.
2L82Sk8Bye they ate the soap n my car
Thanks for sharing!
Hey, I’m grateful you even took the time to post this potential solution. Thanks!
You have the freshest smelling mice in the neighborhood. :)
I have found a GREAT PRODUCT! Loraffe Under Hood Animal Repellent. They work! They run on two C batteries. I bought two on Amazon and used both under the hood. Then after about two months I put new batteries in ONE and waited a month and put new in the second one. This way when the batteries run out in one the second one still keeps working.
Peppermint oil works too!
Thanks for sharing!
This and all those other ultrasonic gadgets only work on one thing...removing money from your wallet. I watched a video where a guy used 8 of the top sellers of these things. He put them in a circle and put bait in the center. The mouse looked at them and walked right on top of them and proceeded to chow down. It's your money.
Was this one of the devices in the video? Do you have the link?
I had to installed in two of my vehicles and I just found my check engine light on and took it to the mechanic and found out that rabbits chewed all the wiring under the hood. So this piece of shit does not work. I'll try the peppermint spray and hide under the hood with my shotgun to take care of the problem!
Rabbits are a new one, didn't think they could climb up there.
I heard one time a guy left his vehicle at the airport parking lot while he flew somewhere n it was next to a field n when he came back n got his car a rabbit did some damage to his engine but i forget what
It stills works, but didnt that time with rabbits, seems to work with mice n rats real good many people say
Well, I had a snake in my garage. Every since I removed it, I have mice in my car now. I wish the snake would come back.
Dang..lol
Thanks for sharing
It is well known, when you see a snake in a house, it means you have rodents! And snakes kill rodents, so they are useful.
Wow DISCO LIGHTS, for mice.
You need to put in a dance 💃 floor
It's the intake manifold.
@@AnthonyJ350
I guess your correct, because I sae a single white mouse 🐁, dancing like John Travolta, to the music of Staying alive, Staying Alive. Because he had just eaten so decon.
I have this on my Tacoma....HONDA ELECTRIC TAPE WITH CAPSAICIN. A roll is not cheap but seems to work. Another thing i did was buy fake snakes. I have 4 snakes under my hood. Rodents do NOT like serpents. This is my tip.
Thanks for sharing!
Be a nice surprise for any mechanic too lol
Just came back from leaving my car for a month and a fucker nested in the air conditioning! There was dead grass and alot of droppings in the hood. It's a new car too! I have a new found hatred for rats. Thank goodness my car works but it chewed on the filter.
Sorry to hear that.
I just had a freakin squirrel do $2000 damage to the wiring on my F150, installed a unit similar to this, and hitting it with peppermint oil, too. Insane.
I know, it's becoming a costly issue for people.
i had my f250 wiring chewed twice 1st repair was $3900.00 second was $2000.00 have sticky pads, Irish spring, peppermint oil soaked pads, electronic strobes w piercing sounds
want to park on electrified floor next
This is very good. Peppermint oil is also very good and you don't have to worry about your battery
Thanks for sharing!
Damn I can hear that high pitch noise lol. Great video man !! Thanks I'm going to set mine up tomorrow. That was loud lol
Thanks for watching!
Had a squirrel eat my main wiring harness, twice, very expensive! I put a brick in the empty space that it wanted to nest in. I will give the gadget a shot since I live in the sticks.
Mister Flunker did it work
The birck? Yes. The critter needed space and I filled it, I suppose anything solid will work.
@@misterflunker1 try peppermint oil
I'll give the mint spray a try. Friends tell me it works great. In the meantime, I gave my auto insurance a call, and they told me that my computer and wiring harness for the engine and fuel injection are covered under comprehensive. YES !
Nate Greene Do you mind me asking what insurance you have ??
Tell me please
Let us know how the spray works.
@@AnthonyJ350 I use peppermint spray mixed with water, hit the wheels and then around the body and engine works until rain or a couple weeks. Before I did this over $1000 damage to 3 cars. I now try to keep my vehicles inside
@@peteosinga8845 Thanks for sharing your experience on this!
had one of those units squirrel built nest right under it and $6200 wiring harness, garbage. Shop and insurance rep. recommended rat tape instead and shop wrapped it.
Was it specifically this unit brand?
Very easy solution park a Prius next to it LMAO 😂
Yup, do it every day, everywhere.
I need something like this for inside my car, I have a 99 Tahoe and just found droppings inside
We had a customer with that issue. After we installed the Mouse Blocker they never came back.
The lights will work, however, the ultrasonic is totally useless. You can find videos on youtube and it shows mice and rats next to these things.
This specific unit?
@@AnthonyJ350 No not this one in particular..
Using this or mice poison? See mice droppings throughout S10 blazer. Told there is no way to mice proof ur car to seal it up from nice getting inside the cabin. Is this true ?
Nothing is a guarantee, but we've seen good results with this product on the highest setting.
Ok. I will give it a try. What I was talking about were some of the high sonic frequency repellent devices that i have not seen a lot of success with. I will let you know how this one goes. Just spent another $200 on a chewed through EVAP filter on top of the engine.
Are there garbage bins by your vehicle?
@@AnthonyJ350hi there, where can I buy that device?
@@raulrazo7035 If you check their website, it shows authorized dealers for your area.
But does this work for the wires underneath the car such as the engine light wiring where we're getting chewed now for 3rd time. $280 each time to fix pmus we're not even sure if it's a mouse or a chipmunk or a rabbit? No chewing at all underneath the hood
Very high chance, you'll have to put it at the highest setting.
I had something similar...it worked for about 10 months and the squirrel got me again. Is there a physical screen or shield that can be used to keep them out?
You can try rat traps around the vehicle as a first layer of defense then have the Mouse Blocker to supplement.
good ideas,i must try,i hope it will work.Tryed everything
Let us know if it works for you!
@@AnthonyJ350 i will.
The light is different how about chipmunks I have a problem with chippers
Thanks for the feedback
Yes. I had pushed the button. Not sure how to get to the inline fuse. It seems to be rubber sealed. Still waiting on the company to call back.
The fuse holder just twists to unlock.
If it really works ? Thanks
We use it and the local Toyota dealerships here are using it.
I can't see that lasting any length of time with that internal relay chattering every few seconds ... I give it a year tops .
Mine still works
Shawn Woods tested a bunch of the electric mouse deterrents and now had any differences between the decibel readings when off or on
Did any strobe lights as well?
Can I power this through the fuse box or some other way since my battery's in my trunk. Thanks fdf
Ya for sure you can, try to go on a wire with a ring terminal and keep the fuse in the positive wire.
rear mounted batteries have fuse boxes under the hood with a + terminal. any ground works as a --
Thanks
Thanks for watching!
OK you are going to have to dumb this down for us non-mechanics. At first it looks like you are attaching it to the negative and positive terminals of the battery but then you show that distribution thing with all the fuses and I have no idea what that is if I installed it correctly. I attached mine to the positive and negative terminal of my battery and at first I saw lights and it seemed like it was working then it died. I'm not sure if I did something wrong.
You did it correctly. If the voltage is too low it will shut off. If you turn the engine on and the voltage goes over 13.5 it will also shut off.
I just put it at the distribution point for a cleaner install. It was still at a battery connection.
@@AnthonyJ350 ok thanks
@@AnthonyJ350 I just bought my car at a dealership and the battery had to be boosted to start it because it had been sitting around a while. I guess I need to get something to check the voltage of the battery.
@@wordpainting3 I would have it check out. If the terminals look corroded at all I would just put a new battery in. Don't want the vehicle leaving you stranded.
So, months later, how well did it work?
Mel Ivey out of 5 vehicles I know of personally only 1 had a repeat. But I can't confirm if they turned it off. It works in my books.
AnthonyJ350 Thanks for the rapid info. 4 out of 5 aint bad! Had all the vehicles suffered rodent damage previously? Are they (sometimes) parked where rodents wd have access?
Our problem is that we have 4 vehicles regularly parked outside near mixed forest. They all have rodent habitation issues but mostly innocuous stuff. The problem vehicle is the 2002 (yes it’s old but so am I) Acura MDX, in which the mice love to inhabit and expire in the passenger compartment filter and blower. Do you happen to know of any info source for preventing their access? I have used stainless steel wool in the home and in another vehicle, but the local shop says there’s no way to block access on the MDX.
Mel Ivey I'd have to see the design of the opening. Yes all the vehicles I'm referring to had previous rodent damage. I would also suggest taking off the engine cover as it retains heat and they like to nest there.
Hows its do w/ hybrid engines that dont run all the time?
As long as the voltage hits over 13 volts, it stays off.
@@AnthonyJ350I bought a "Pro". I had difficulty finding a location on my Prius, but improvised. Battery went dead once, car sat for a week, but not too low a jump didnt work, I DID slow charge it & check often..I have a very small battery/lower reserve capacity. Still worth it than chewed up wires. So far, so good. Thank u for your informative video. 👍
Looks great, but what about if the mice have made a home inside the cabin of the car? Would installing it in the engine bay make them stay away from the inside cabin of the car as well?
christopher evensen Try this:
I have had a problem with chipmunks and/or mice nesting under the hood of my car. They chewed my wiper fluid hose and it cost me $80 to replace. I used 3 bars of Original Scent Irish Spring in sandwich bags with slits cut in one side to allow the scent out. I cleaned out the existing nesting material under the hood and put the three bars in with the slit sides facing up. It's been over three weeks and no signs of new nesting activity. I also put in glove box and hatchback. Yay. It seems to work. Replace every month or when odor fades.
The hopes is they a repelled away from the vehicle all together. If they're already inside the cabin, it might drive them further in. If inside it's highly recommended seeking help from a professional to remove them and sterilize the vehicle.
Is it safe for dogs? It could bother them at that frequency.
My distributor said his dog just walks around his truck.
My Prius battery is in the trunk, the rodents are under the engine. Will it still work?
You would have to find a 12 volt source up front or bring it up.
Will a 18 lb. Norwegian Forest Cat or Maine Coon, take care of this problem???? Or just put USED cat litter under your car???? If mice smells cat they go to your neighbor house.
Thanks for the feedback
Sounds like a plan to me as *redundancy* is a given in any approach.
Yeah I definitely need that.
They've worked good for me.
Good video. I noticed droppings under my engine cover too. Had never took off the cover until I did some wiring project. Where can I buy this if I live in Vancouver, Canada. Buy straight from the company? Thanks.
Visions Electronics Surrey sells them
@@AnthonyJ350 is it listed on there website v
I have 30 vintage cars this unit is great for the daily driver but what the vintage cars not driven for ten years or more, I'm putting moth balls in every ash tray those cars I did that none got into the interior,
But I'm also going tontrybspaying diesel fuel on the engine and compartment and the floor were its parked.
They are 70s American car with no engine cover, I've always left the hood popped up but not open as sometimes the hood gets stuck n you break rthe cable trying to pop it after years of sitting.
I will try that device on my daily driver
A cat or two is the simplest solution to a rodent problem.
There's a 110 volt plug in the wall version for these.
How do you mount it to your vehicle? Thanks
There's different ways. It has built in mounting holes so you can mount it directly to sheet metal or make a bracket. You could also use zip ties, but I prefer mounting it solid to the vehicle.
hi i have problems with squirrels on my car did this work on them???
We know Mice and rats from the manufacturer, anecdotally we've seen dogs not go near the vehicle. But I don't have any sort of confirmation for squirrels. I would e-mail Mouse Blocker direct with your concern.
What are they doing to you vehicle.
AnthonyJ350 They are chewing through the foam wire covering and started to build a nest i have ford f150
Kill all squirrels around your home, shoot them or get traps n catch them n kill or let them free far from your home
Some scorpion pepper juice sprayed on engine compartment ( harness and wiring ) works well.
Sounds like a much better option that the noise maker.
Thanks for sharing
I'm wondering if the light is what the real deterrent is here.
I have tried half a dozen sonic pest repellants and absolutely none of them did a darn thing.
Dogs and cats will look at the thing, but other critters like mice and squirrels
seem to take no notice of it or if they do they don't give a tinker's fart about it.
The only things that have ever worked for me once I find mouse or
other rodent droppings is either a large cat, traps, or poison.
Makes sense, the light would be very disruptive and unappealing to go towards.
Interesting observation. Thanks!
When I worked on my Buick today found insulation in the trunk. I put rat bait in there for now cause that's all I had available. Going to try mothballs and peppermint
Thanks for sharing your experience.
Peppermint oil works great! Just apply it fairly often all around engine and compartment! Rats stay away moth balls don’t work I saw a test on CZcams!
100% Peppermint liquid concentrate in a water spray bottle works for about two weeks. You can find it at a health foods store. Good luck.
Ironic that there are NO videos that actually show it actually working against rodents. You just have to take people's word that it is working.
Like I said in the video, we had a close friend that had to set traps up around their vehicle. After installing it the traps weren't catching the rodents anymore. You can always call the manufacturer and ask to talk to dealerships that install them.
Feel free to post your own CZcams after you install cameras around your vehicle, in the engine compartment etc. and wait for the vermin to appear. No Photoshop cheating either.
*You also take people’s word the groceries you buy are safe to consume.*
Until you’re in the ER with uncontrollable diarrhea, vomiting etc. OOPS.
Shawn Woods You tube channel…….nothing but catching rats. He tested the sonic things..Go check him out. Amazing!!! 2022
Yes, intermittently the garbage bin gets placed near the vehicles. Thanks. I assume that is a bad thing. I will make sure the bin stays in the backyard.
They probably smell the food in the garbage bin, then get attracted to the vehicle because it's warm.
I just paid out 163.00 dollars today for chewed up spark plug wires. I would use something like that, but does it work? So don't ask me if I want to hurt them lol. whatever will keep them out I am all for it. I opened up my hood once and there was some leaves and a turkey bone sitting on top of the engine lol I was like what the .......
Marcia T From the friend's vehicles I've put them in no mice have come back.
Thank you Anthony That way I won't have to commit murder lol
This early winter I have noticed mouse droppings on my motor under plastic valve cover. Chewed acorns etc...
I purchased a similar device $20.00 Loraffe is the brand name on Amazon and am going to install it hopefully this solves the problem......
Hopefully that works for you.
Mostly all car brands are using Soy Based wire insulation on their cars and trucks .Quite a few Toyota Full size trucks and SUV’s we’re at a local dealer $25,000 total vehicular harness or harnesses they even chewed the fuel lines and brake lines Take Care April 6 2020
SurferJoe71 So how did it work for ya? Thanks.
This happened to me lately and the rodent chewed on red wire battery cable so I could not even start the car! The problem with this device is not only it covers a certain area and not everywhere but also for me I got an Audi and the battery is way back in the trunk so not practical I guess!
There are different setting levels and you can make the Mouse Blocker quite loud.
Passive factory immobilizers can drain your battery. Just ask any 2000s Ford truck owner. How long will your battery last with this thing chirping away (Sorry. I didn't have 8:26 seconds to spare to watch the whole vid. Maybe you covered it but SFW)?
I guess it's fine if you drive your car every few days. What works even better is a $1.50 mouse trap changed every week. Leave the dead mouse there for a few days. The others learn that your car is not a drive through Wendy's. And you do your neighbours a favour by getting rid of the bastards.
Cars put away for the winter should have a trickle charger on the battery anyhow. Problem solved.
Especially neighbors like mine: “Slick” My next door neighbor feeds the damn things very generously year round. I’ve tried pleasant convos with the guy repeatedly to no avail.
I am preparing for a genocidal assault due to his years of feeding the fat, happy critters because they’re “cute.” My objective is to annihilate the current infestation in every possible way-neighbor not included. He’s not worth going to jail for in any event.
I need this kind of electronic, but i cant find it in our country philippines
You would probably have to contact Mouse Blocker directly and ask them to ship it.
STEEL WIRE PADS WORK!
To do what?
Hi AnthonyJ350, I have 2 old cars that are parked in my driveway for the summer months and used throughout the summer. (Im in the country with forest behind and farmers fields beside) Ive had the 2 car covers turned into swiss cheese by mice and other varmin, shredding them to make their nests. Late spring and summer, I get them inside the cars making nests to have their babies, and just about every year! Recently, Ive had mouse traps with peanut butter on them, caught one in the trunk, and was only found 2 weeks later. Well the trunk was full of maggots, burrowing into the trunk carpet! And now, found another nest in the other car, and one dead one, somewhere! Still trying to find the rotting carcass! From what I saw in your video, you dont work for mouse blocker but you have bought and used them. Think they might work in my case? Thanks!
There's a good chance they'll work. You'll want the 110V version you plug in the wall, since it sounds like your cars just sit and don't get driven that much. Nothing is a guarantee, but we've had great success with the units we've installed at the shop. Hope that helps.
How about a video of it really working
Show us how this works on rats mouse etc.
If you can bring over some mice we can test it.
Red squirrels just got my old Buick. Lots of soldering wires.
That sucks to hear. Hopefully the fix isn't too bad.
So, I ordered two units from their website and got them in today. Hooked them up . . . They are both DOA. Heard a faint clicking noise at first, then nothing for several minutes while they stayed connected. Tried starting and then turning off the engine too. Key was not in the ignition. Not sure what else to think. Left a message for Matthew at the 877 number to call me. Not sure what I could have done wrong. The hook up is so straight forward. Was attempting to install on a 2001 Toyota Tundra.
Did you push the button on the unit? And check the inline fuse.
Some people say to spray armour all on exposed wires
If it works, the down side to that is dirt and dust will stick to the wires you sprayed it on.
I used a strobe/ high frequency/ultrasonic device in the engine compartment which kept mice/rats out of the engine compartment only. They did 7,000. damage anyway! intire wiring harness had to be replaced. What's next?
Are there garbage cans near your vehicle?
What kind of vehicle was it?
Nope. The sonic waves DO NOT go through metal !!! So now I'm putting battery powered ultra sonic units inside the body - spare tire well, inside rear bumper where they were entering the body. Then I'll go to parking the car on the electric fence idea.
2006 Honda S2000
pretty damn cool!
Eddie David I think so. It just snowed and the customer told me they could see the mouse tracks stop going to the truck.
I park my car for 21 days will it kill my battery?
How big and good quality is your battery? If the voltage gets too low it automatically turns off.
I installed this. A rat entered the fresh air duct under the plastic grill under the wiper blades. Useless
This exact product? You sure it was on? If the battery gets low it automatically shuts off.
Does rodents include 1 ft long alley rats & squirrels???
Maybe?
Well, if you’re dealing with Manhattan sized rats and if they’re as bold as those, bring in some heavy duty artillery to trap/kill the things. Any problem of this type IMO should include redundancy in your strategy. Good luck!
This worked for me
Awesome!
Thank you for the video I tried the mouse blocker and didn't work for me mice were still getting in engine compartment, so far what has worked for me is spraying peppermint I set large cotton balls and spray them and so far it has worked for me really well I spray every 3 days the only bad thing my car smells of mint and I hate mint lol but at least it keeps the mice away so ain't gonna complain.
And that was on the highest setting? Where did you place it under the hood?
@@AnthonyJ350 Hi, yes actually around the same place you had yours and actually I should of mention it worked the first few days but it seems they got used to it quick I also live in the desert so don't know if that might make a difference but this is the first year I've had so many mice and rats, I've lived here for 10 years now
Forgot to mention yes it was on the highest setting
@@marochruiz1019 That sucks, what kind of vehicle was it in?
@@AnthonyJ350 it's 2005 Kia Spectra5 a little hatchback what's funny I also have a 2004 Chevy Cavalier and they don't even care for that one they leave it alone lol
This is an nice device. Just too much to connect it.
It's a 2 wire hook up, positive and negative. How is that "too much"?
What about inside cabin ?
Just put the wires through into the inside of vehicle through engine compartment where other wires are going n way it will, you will probably have to extend the wires
You would have to install a unit inside. It's usually not necessary. You can get a 110V plug in version and place it inside when you store the vehicle.
The LEDs don’t seem very bright.
To be fair, I am filming it with a light source on it and I don't know the settings on the screen you're viewing it on.
Is it still working?
Yup, works great!
Thats a good way to see if working with cell phone mic
Thanks for the comment!
I've tried everything from high frequency, subsonic, alarm, strobe, peppermint spray, some nasty smelling repelaway stuff and absolutely nothing has worked. my last resort is to set traps and re-locate them 🤯🤯🤯 I'm tired of wasting money and time on remedies that just aren't working.
Have you tried this specific one?
@@AnthonyJ350 yes I did and it did not deter the rodents in my area. I returned them a few days ago and used a spray called repelsall (it stinks so bad) and set some traps but in 2 days I havent seen any new droppings so I'm hopeful.
@@HeathMartinVO Glad to hear you found a solution that works for you!
Have you tried Ferrit shite as they run a mile from it!
llewbach77 where the hell do I get ferret shite! I’ve heard fox urine works too, but once again not readily available. Lol
Thanks for sharing!
Does it work on squirrels?
I would think so, I would contact the manufacturer directly.
Noise emitters simply do NOT work - they get used to it, and ignore the source. A waste of money
Also, I had mice eat the sewer hose that connects to my camper - turned it into a SLINKY!
This one seems to work for us and local dealerships are using it. What about the strobing light?
Well, using ONE approach when you have an *established infestation* may not be enough with an already established/extended “family” of vermin.
Redundancy increases the likelihood of success so try using another one or two other methods concurrently. Good luck!
I will putting my car for 6 months does this device is going to work? I will be removing that battery connection.
There's a 110v version you can plug into the wall.
Yeah doesn’t work had one installed after being fixed and cleaned from rats two weeks later they were back even with the Alarm on high
This exact brand?
@@AnthonyJ350 I will get back to you
I think this will work but if it's closed to pets it might harm them. it's producing low frequency sound only small creature up to insects will hear this. Use wisely.
Great point!
Where can I get one in Canada
mouseblocker.ca/
Something chewed the hood insulation pad on my brand new Camry. I'm thinking a ground squirrel or a rat. It made a mess. I ordered one of these mouse blocker pro's and it arrived today. Gonna install it tomorrow. I hope like hell it works. Is yours still working and keeping the pest away? If this work I'm gonna be ordering several for all of my vehicles. Does it take weeks for this to begin to work? I hope not. I hope it keeps the rodents away immediately. Thanks for the vid.
Mine still works. Put it on the highest setting after you install it.
Please let us know how it works for you after you install it.
I most definitely will. I just have got done installing it. Pretty simple install.
I use slap traps & poison bait. I want to see a body count. I live out in the county on 4 acres. I use one bite bait I get from my local farm coop. Mice have a range area of about 1/4 acre. I put out the throw packets until they aren't eaten anymore. I monitor the packets during the winter months and if I see they are being eaten again. I replace them until they remain uneaten. All this concern about other animals eating poison from dead mice is city folks BS. I and the rest of the farming community have been using mouse bait for decades. Mouse bait uses a blood poison. Apparently it doesn't bother cats, raccoons, opossums, rabbits, hawks, eagles, mag pies, wood peckers, skunks, coyotes and so on, because it's wild kingdom around here on my property. Stop by and you can pet a raccoon, LOL.
That's crazy, thanks for sharing your insight. The traps seem needed when you're at home and this piece is a supplement aid for normal use around town or a trip.
I have good luck with Mint spray for mice in the house mice spiders ants do not like the smell
Thanks for sharing!
The household ones do not work why is this one gonna work!?
Different design?
AnthonyJ350 & T Huss the info I provided in my original comment should create more of an understanding in general but if u guys would like I can give you both a detailed explanation of how the devices work and also how and why they are both efficient and equally inefficient under separate circumstances. Also the devices for around the house and the device for in vehicle compartments are essentially the same thing (they are different considering power requirements, one is a 12v dc setup and one is a 120v ac setup) but they are configured to function the same way mostly (sound pulses and frequencies are a match)
Its the Mouse blocker pro 3000 xl
Thanks for the comment
Just let some homeless cats stay in your garage, it's a win win, the cats get a nice dry place to live and the mice dont. Just be sure cats are not under the hood before you start the car.
@Steve Allen
Well if a momma cat put kittens under there at least you can be sure there ain't no mice .lol.
@Steve Allen
And, cats don't chew on wires.
Cats wreck the paint
This does not work
Thanks for the feedback!
DOESNT WORK JUST MAKE NOISE ALL TIME AT VERY HI FREQUENCY BUT DOESNT WORK AT ALL!!!!!!
Have you tried this unit?
@@AnthonyJ350 I got two of this devices at SEMA Two years ago, installed and rodents still dropping, chewing the harness on my vehicles
@@jaeamado9634 Interesting, we've had good results with it. I won't say it's a guarantee. I only can do a video on my experience and feedback in vehicles I have installed in.
These devices just don’t work man. Sorry.
I have 3 customer vehicles with previous rodent nests (also had wiring damage) where they never came back after the install documented. One had to lay traps around the vehicles and since the install they dont even go near the traps anymore. Also one of the local Toyota dealerships is installing it because it's a major problem with newer Toyotas due to the type of insulation they're using, it attracts rodents.
I'm not saying it's a guarantee, but we have seen results with this product.
Grant Brown Have you validated one personally? Until then you are merely assuming it doesn’t...
Why not set up a recording of a cat in heat?
What device would you use to place back the sound accurately?
AnthonyJ350 Well of course you can! Get a recording of your MIL in heat, an inflamed histrionic ex or another harpy and it’s enough to blow the eardrums out of people ;-)
At 90.00 I hope that this thing will work
Does for me.
This sounds like a paid promotion (commercial).
These things have been proved not to work. Rodents get used to the sounds and the lights. After that, you're screwed!
I've used it as well as close friends. Not saying it's a guarantee but we've had good success. Any video of mine that are sponsored, you will see an icon, but I always work with product that makes sense to me and I've had personal experience with.
11.5 volts won't start your car!
Older cars can. Ones with a BCM probably not.
I got a 2020 Tacoma, fresh off the lot and fucking rats destroyed my harness. lol, fuck my life.
Sorry to hear that. Did insurance take care of you?
Crazy, how much is it
TxJonathan We sell it for $129.99
Those just don't work, found this out 1st hand.
What kind of vehicle, and what setting did you have it on?
@@AnthonyJ350 Jeep JK on max. We live in the country where mice are par for the course. Nooskey traps work very well and more eco friendly. The mice/rats die almost instantly as it breaks their necks. Owls cats and other animals can still eat the dead mice with no effect, the rubber band in most cases is not eaten by the predator and if so it passes out without harm.
You should do a review on the Nooskey traps. I secured 3 in my engine bay with reusable zip ties. I also have 3 in the garage in stratrgic places.
This is nonsense. That won't keep rodents away.
Have you tired it? The Toyota dealerships are using it in my area and newer Toyotas are susceptible due to the soy in the insulation.
@@AnthonyJ350 Well what does that prove? Nothing. I wouldn't waste my money on that.
@@wolfy1 Based on experience we had 3 vehicles with rodents of friends. One had to step traps around her F350. After installing the mouse blocker, the outside traps no longer were touched.
Well duh, don’t use it then. Problem solved. Hope you can easily afford a couple grand to repair the damage these little terrorists cause.
The only way I can be convinced that this works is if Shawn Woods tests it.
Maybe Mouse Blocker will send him one to try. It has worked for my customers, and I'm the one doing the wire repair. Not saying it's a guarantee but we've had good success so far.
It plays high frequency rap music
I thought it was high frequency Country music.
@@AnthonyJ350 yeah, there is a setting for that and middle eastern music
@@pacvend I'm not sure if we're talking preferences or if you're trying to make your comments sound racial....
@@pacvend Why are you even mentioning you don't like other music genres in this? And the way you put it, shows a lot of prejudice.
@@pacvend Are we going to start talking about how the American government has failed you and the proper immigration isn't being practiced? I understand you have a border crisis and it needs to be fixed.
or use waterproofing aluminum tape- I had replaced my spark plug wires at least 4 times and tried everything before I tried this: photos.app.goo.gl/PuW96EkVQ7zDAQdr9
