5.0 out of 5 stars Squirrels and raccoons beware, February 18, 2008

This thing WORKS! great... it will send rodents running/packing their bags.. but note this is Very load and disturbing. its good for a weekend house or when/where no one is home,you cant be in the house with it turned on (it also chases humans/you away).. if you have a squirrel or raccoon problem i would recommend you buy this product to get them out and then seal the entry/access points/holes so they don't return.

I am surprised it's a commercial product. Even in the "quiet" mode, it's
too noisy. I bought this to repel raccoons and squirrels, but it annoyed
my family and neighbors. It's not as the product description said "The noise is intolerable to pests yet friendly to pets and humans". Finally,
I returned it and I paid double shipping fee to get rid of this product.
If you have 10 acres backyard, it may be powerful to repel most of creature, otherwise, don't think about it.

I bought a TX-PRO about a year ago (2007.) I'd acquired a little sports car over the summer and had cleaned out a detached garage to accommodate it. Friends and neighbors mentioned the damage that squirrels and mice had done to stored cars and motorcycles over past winters. I sat the unit on a table near an outlet, on the driver's side of the car. It's been running ever since. I change the frequency and volume every now and then. No damage or nests of any kind have been found. The entire garage remains in pristine condition. Pests of all kinds have found other places to live.

I bought second unit a couple of weeks ago (2008.) I'd heard gnawing sounds coming from under a staircase one chilly afternoon. A quick inspection of the nearest outside wall revealed missing pieces of grout between the basement door sill and the foundation - large enough for a field mouse. Initially, I pulled the first TX-PRO from the garage and set it up on the stairs to chase the mouse before making repairs. It worked! I decided to order a second unit as a spare for the garage, but then put it to work full-time in the basement after it arrived.

The TX-PRO is effective. It has no moving parts. It consumes little power. It doesn't bother my beagle, although he certainly can hear it. My first unit has been tested at length, but only at higher volumes in a detached garage. I can't see it being used in a residence at these levels as it is clearly audible and annoying to humans (sort of like a non-stop cicada.) Therefore, I can recommend the TX-PRO for outdoor use right now. We will see how it does indoors at the "quiet" setting this winter.
