Finally, a high-tech solution for an age-old problem: bugs and rodents. We've all been there, watching a tiny ribbon of ants march along a kitchen counter or finding telltale droppings in the closet's hinterlands. Lentek International elevates mousing to an art form with its ultrasonic pest repeller. This dandy device plugs into a regular wall socket and emits an ultrasonic sound that fluctuates from higher to lower frequencies, targeting different pests--lower for bigger pests, higher for smaller. Exposure to this harsh sound (which is inaudible to humans) makes your unwanted guests skedaddle. The device works best in high-pest areas, but if you want super results, place two in the same room but on opposite walls. This creates a ricochet effect, and the bugs and mice won't know what hit 'em. Some of the best features of this repeller are that it won't interfere with your TV or computer, it uses no chemicals, and it's safe around children and most household pets. --C. Whitney-Ward ...

Never Buy This One ...
This is one of my worst purchase @ AMAZON since last 4 years or so. The product pratically does not work ... drains only electricity.

A good power consumption device, but nothing more
I tried this device in my garage to keep out insects and spiders. After several months, there is no detectable difference except for a slightly larger utility bill.

I think the spiders are better at keeping out the insects.

I definitely feel like a sucker for buying this.

A disappointment
My wife is DEATHLY afraid of mice so that was our primary intention of this product. We plugged it in, but the mice still seemed to stick around. We killed a spider right by the device! Our house is small so it should have been able to handle it. I tried all the settings I could think of. Also tried it in different plugs. Hopefully you'll have better luck.

Ants R Gone
I live in a condominium with apartments above and to the sides of mine. At least once every couple of months I would have an infestation of ants. Since I put one device in my kitchen and one in my bedroom, I have not had any more ant parades. It's been over 1 1/2 years and I am a believer! ... Read more

Not working for me
I put the Lentek PR21M to work on 3/13/02, I am still seeing spiders and ants after nine weeks. I am starting to doubt that this thing will work at all!

Pest Control For On The Road Camper
I wasn't quite sure when purchasing Ultrasonic PestContro, that it would work for me. But after having it installed for over 2 months now, I havn't seen any traces of mice droppings anywhere in my trailer. I was tired of setting traps, and then finding that the mice were just eating each other when traped. This is one product I'am glad I bought. It really works. Best part I like is that it is portable. It uses 110 volts, when hooked up at my back yard, and 9-volt battery when out on camping trips. I do intend to buy 2 more, one for my garage, and one for the house. Thanx Lentek, For a great product. Charlie, Fallston, Md.

Peace of Mind, With Lentek Pest Control
Since buying my New 1998 Coachmen Coachmen Travel Trailer, I have found that mouse traps are only good, if you can check them often. When you put it up for Winter Storage, you can't always check the traps. When you finally do, you find that new nice have been eating the one's caught in the traps. There are plenty of other Electronic Pest Controls around, but this is the first one I've seen that has a battery back-up. This is what I have been looking for, since I go hunting for two weeks at a time in the mountains. Now I don't have to worry about bring'ing home unwanted critters. I have found no evidence of any mice in the trailer, since installing the Lentek PR21M Portable Ultrasonic PestContro. With a price tag of under $20.00, you would not exspect to find all the features that this one has. Adjustable frequency, test mode, portable using either 120 volts, or 9-volt battery, and a large protection area of up to 1500 square feet. I'am planning on buying two more, one for the 2 car garadge, and one for my large shed. I store bird feed in both, and this will deter the nice problems. Thanx Lentek, for a great product, at a reasonable price. Charlie Pedrick, Fallston, Maryland. 07/03/01

Short life for a portable unit
I purchased this item to place in my shed, which doesn't have an electrical outlet. I thought it would be perfect since it's portable and made by Lentek, a company that got great reviews for their other pest control products. However, this unit runs less than two weeks on battery. Not worth the money if you have to replace the battery every other week. ... Read more

Hello Bees
I bought this product for my dad as a gift. They have a problem with bees outside on their patio. The instructions for this product state that it can be used indoors or outdoors and it would repel bees. We tried it on a very small patio one day and the bees were actually attracted to the product. They were sitting on top of the machine when we had it on in both the silent mode and audible mode. I returned the product and we decided the best alternative to getting rid of the bees is to use fabric softner which is cheaper.

GOODBYE, BUGS!!
I have recently relocated from NYC to a very rural area of west coast Florida--Bugs Galore! Although my home was new and not infested, I had constant creepy-crawlies for guests no matter how much professional pest control was used indoors and outdoors too. I bought 2 of these units; one for a central area inside my house and one for outside on my patio/pool area. It works wonderfully! My patio area is now totally free of most insects and the few that do get in are driven crazy by the sound and either evacuate immediately or die. Indoors, my house has been totally pest-free. I also purchased several of the smaller PestoControl wall plug-in units to use in conjunction with the PR22M unit. All in all, I'm very pleased with the PR22M Ultrasonic Dual PestoControl. ...

No more chemicals, traps, or discreet pest funerals: high technology is finally in the pest control business. Lentek's nifty electronic pest/insect repeller takes the guesswork out of ridding your home of uninvited varmints. Have a pesky squirrel in your rafters? Plug in Select-A-Pest, hit the power button, and then press the selection button on top of the unit. It has separate settings for small animals, rodents, bats, spiders, and fleas. And the unit's design is weatherproof, so it's ideal for using outside or in an unheated attic or basement. The larger the pest, the louder the sound that the Select-A-Pest emits, so be forewarned. However, if you want to use it inside your house, it has a silent, fluctuating ultrasonic setting that will deal with a variety of nesting pests. You'll have to play around with it a bit because results can vary depending on the temperature, humidity, and density of the objects in the room. Overall, this repeller approach works well: it's clean, efficient, safe around children and most pets, and, best of all, it sends your unwanted pests packing. --C. Whitney-Ward ... Read more

Doesn't work
I had a different pest repeller for four years and when I had that one I never saw a bug or mouse. I thought this one would be better because it was more expensive and you can select which pest that it works for. Well since I have had it I saw a roach a few feet away from the unit. I just had to get rid of a bee that was in the same room. We even had a bird that was standing on the porch screen not to far from the unit. I wish that I had bought a different brand.

Does not work for spiders!
I bought this product mainly for the spider problem we have in our garage. I followed the directions for effective use and I haven't seen any decrease in spider activity. In fact I think there's more now. Can't say if it works for mice or larger animals but I would guess that it's more effective on them. ... Read more
