WE WERE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH FLEAS ON OUR CATS THAT WE HELP INSIDE OUR HOME. I HAVE TRIED VARIOUS PRODUCTS FROM STORES AND FROM OUR VET BUT NOTHING HELPED UNTIL I TRIED THE LENTEK PC-0M PEST CONTOL ORIGINAL. IT TOOK ABOUT TWO DAYS UNTIL I COULD SEE THE RESULTS. I PLAN TO BUY THE THREE PACK ... TO HELP WITH THE REST OF THE HOUSE. I RATE THIS PRODUCT A FIVE STAR OR HIGHER, A GOOD QUALITY PRODUCT WITH AN EXCELLENT WARRANTY

I bought this product from a TV infomercial five years ago during the summer. Because we did have a recurring problem with various pests and we didn't want to deal with the expense of a monthly pest control company fee, I decided to take a chance on what was considered pretty radical technology then-using ultrasonic and magnetic sound to drive away pests in your home. Plus I liked the idea of not using toxic fumes. I got the product, actually read the instructions, and plugged it in using an extension cord (doesn't slow down it's effectiveness) so I could position it correctly under our dining table with an unobstructed view. The rest of that year, I saw some improvement, but not a lot-it slowed down the march of spiders coming in from the fall rains, and kept most of the mice from coming in to watch TV in the winter (we live near a wooded area, so pests are unavoidable), but there was nothing to get really excited about. The next spring brought some surprises though...the mean green flying machine did not take over our home as usual. By that I mean the flies, bees, mosquitos, gnats, etc. They would come in, and after awhile, you could actually see them frantically trying to get back out...if they didn't, you'd find them RIP'd on your windowsill the next time you dusted. The next thing we noticed that our dog stopped having problems with fleas-to the point that we were able to stop buying extra flea control for him. He's not stupid either-whenever our poodle has had a visit with another unprotected dog, he would come in and lie down right in the line of sight of PestContro :) That summer marked a real slowdown in spider population, and we only got one rodent visitor that winter. Since then, except for an occasional dusting of its casing, I haven't touched or moved our PestContro from under the dining table. Also, our lives have been pretty much pestfree. No, we are not totally 'free' of pests, but I didn't expect PestContro to do that-I just wanted to slow down the 'colony' and to keep them from taking up residence-In my opinion, PestContro delivered on that promise.

After purchasing this to help battle a cockroach infestation, I learned that insects do not "hear" the ultrasonic frequency emitted by this device. Nevertheless, I plugged in two in my kitchen and my roach problem was not helped. I understand that it may help with rodents, however.

This little device is a complete hoax for insect problems.

Living in NYC, you will try anything to be rid of the roaches, mice, waterbugs, etc. PestContro worked wonders!

It was so effective, I could hear a family of mice scrambling to move out of my walls a few hours after I plugged in the device. IT IS GREAT!!!

Please remember to give PestContro a chance. It can take up to a month to fully fix your pest problems.

The only available outlet in my son's room was behind his bed. After a few months of having the PestContro in place (and not noticing any lack of pests), I moved the bed only to find a Daddy Long Legs spider living happily in the web it attached to the no pest unit!

I have this plugged in just inside the back basement door where any vermin or insects might find to enter. I have not had a problem with either, so I have to assume that it is working! I do have various spiders, but nothing else. Have had it for several years.

This product works great for getting rid of ants. We had many last year and this year, hardly any....the unit is in the kitchen so this year, we see ants in the basement. I just bought 2 more units so I can put one on each floor.

My house seems to attract spiders. I don't have any other pests except for my relatives and the occasional mosquito. I purchased the Lentek PC-01M Pest Control Original, and followed the directions for placing it in a spot where its ultrasonic thingies would have an unobstructed path. It says something about needing a few weeks for maximum benefit, so I simply forgot about it until one day, about a month later, I was cleaning. I swiped at a few cobwebs and remembered my new Lentek PC-01M Pest Control Original. Sure enough, it was humming away, lights on and presumably operational. I dusted the cobwebs off of it and shrugged my shoulders. Ripped off again. I have noticed since then that the first area to get cobwebs always seems to be directly in view of the Lentek PC-01M Pest Control Original. I guess the bugs like the darn thing. I sure don't.

This device is very good, I didn't had roaches, spiders in my apartment since 1997. However, after the black out on 2003 in new york city, my 2 pest contro devices stopped working appropiately. Therefore I am forced to buy 2 new pest contro's.

After reading previous comments about the products, I guess it depends where you live. I happen to live in a 30 floor building and it works fine for me, the only problem I had was after the blackout and the devices started making a twitching sound. Probably due to the power failure, the pest contros were no longer in use. From that point my kitchen has small roaches and about 3 adult roaches by my kitchen table. I bought a newer version called "pest patrol" after the black out and that one didn't do a thing.

I`ll take a shot with the original pest contro, and I rather use this product than the newer ones that seem to have dissapointed a lot of consumers here at amazon.

I ordered two for the price of one, I received one and one month later I was told that the second item was no long available. Now I no longer have the package or the bill to send the first back.
