1.0 out of 5 stars Yet Another Quack Device, August 13, 2005
This review is from: Pest-A-Cator 1000 (Kitchen)
I would never spend the money one of these things costs, but I was lucky to come across one for free, and was curious as to how it worked. Because when you plug it in, it doesn't make any noise, vibration, or anything. All it does is flash a red LED on and off, that's it.

So I decided to open it up and see what is on the inside. Having a strong background in electronics, I had to laugh when all that was inside was basically a small coil and a circuit to make the LED flash on and off.

I did a search on the internet, and I see there has already been complaints against this product from the Federal Trade Commission.

I associate with squirrels and wildlife on a daily basis. I pluged this unit in outside on the deck when the squirrels came up for a snack, and they paid no attention to this device, even when placed under thier food dish with an extension cord while I video taped it to show to others how ridiculous this quack device is. I found some spiders and insects outside and placed the unit next to them with the traveling extension cord, and the same thing, they could care less about it.

The worst part is that there are only about $2 - $5 worth of parts on the inside, and they charge around $40 for it?
