Mousework

My boyfriend and i have recently bought an old cottage (previously owned by a divorcing pair of hippies) that had aquamarine/pink walls with a mint green bathroom. We ripped away some walls whilst refurbing (not the lovely green and pink walls surely?), and to our delight we found a few dead mice (4!) in traps. I cant think of a nastier way to die than dislocating my shoulders trying in vain to get out of a mousetrap and then starving to death, so in the interest of humanity i binned them all. Besides, we'll be taking our 2 cats and they will rip them to pieces...

This all meant that i had to come up with a humane way of keeping the mice at bay, after much goggling i came up with this: The ultrasonic pest repeller

It works in two ways:

Firstly; it sends an electro-magnetic pulse through the wiring of your house. The electromagnetic pulse (also known as EMP) is a high-intensity, short-duration burst of electromagnetic energy that is meant to be very irritating to the mouse. When you plug the repeller in it travels through the wiring to surround the whole house.

Secondly; it also emits ultrasonic sound waves. These waves are at such a high frequency they are above the range of human hearing - gain the aim being to annoy your unwanted guests (would work well with children especially well as the younger you can hear high pitched frequencies).

Both of which should culminate in pests being driven from your house - all without affecting the cats! I will let you know how it works once it arrives... The aim of the PestGuard is to make 'as hostile environment as possible for the pest' Yay - a reason for me to be even more argumentative!!!.



Not my most technical of posts, although i think that mentioning electromagnetic pulses and ultrasonic sound waves in one post is quite good for me, but i am too busy painting to learn anything new :)
