These type of products are supposedly harmless to humans and pets( who determined that, especially about pets?) Well I am been driven mad by sounds which may or may not be due to these devices. Maybe my neighbours have installed them. The sounds are deep repetitive booms. The medical profession call it tinnitus but that is also a speculative idea. In any case I think these machines should be banned as they constitute a severe sound nuisance!
No wonder the whales are trying to get away from sonar by beaching themselves It must be unbearable for the poor creatures.

riddex and similar devices are a scam

they do NOTHING

"why are they allowed to advertize on TV" should be the real question

Beware of this company. I just saw the commercial and decided to do some poking about. I found this among other reputable sources that point towards the FTC's decision as well as many posts from dissatisfied customers over Riddex's products. I've not had the displeasure of trying it myself, but from the looks of things, I'm glad I never will. Anything positive I found were copies of each other, or sounded like fabricated testimonials, posted on different forums and under short, unreliable names. Too bad, I needed a good solution. So far the best option is to burn the place down and start over... I'm too afraid that an expensive terminator isn't going to be enough.

I had nearly two hundred crickets and some other insects in my garage when I moved in. They were jumping all around me. I killed or drove them all out. Then I had to leave home for about four weeks. I expected several hundreds of insects again in my garage when I returned and they were there. But this time they were all dead or nearly dying. What was the difference? I had installed two Riddex Plus on opposite walls of my garage. Together Riddex worked, although my friends insist that they all died due to summer heat in my Texas garage. I still see insects dead. Not so many as in the summer.

I just saw a commercial for this product. It supposedly repels and gets rid of rats without using chemicals. I looked up the product (Riddex) and found this response.

Why did I see the commercial after the FTC decision?
