Pestrol Rodent Free:
With ever-increasing reports throughout Australia like below: its no wonder that companies are trying safer, cleaner methods of controlling rodents.
New breed of “super rats”, immune to poison and too smart to get caught in traps has invaded Sydney, the Daily Telegraph reported. Australian Museum naturalist Martin Robinson said: “A lot of suburban rats have been baited for as long as Sydney has been settled, so many populations have become immune to those baits. One of the interesting things is that when they become immune to the bait, they can actually become addicted to it.”

Pestrol: Alternative pest control solutions that Australians trust, since 2002.
ELECTROMAGNETIC
Electromagnetic Pest Control utilises the existing wiring within the walls of your home or building by simply sending a pulsing or shifting signal through the wires, this is tuned to irritate the pests nervous system. The signal is turned on and off at set intervals so the rodents and cockroaches will not build up a tolerance. Electromagnetic vibrations from the unit are picked up by the rodents and cockroaches. Making it difficult or impossible for them to gather food, breed and build their nests, and communicate with each other. As a result, your home becomes an extensive pest repeller and all rodents and cockroaches will want to escape and stay away.
ULTRASONIC
Ultrasonic pest control utilises a high-pressure ultrasonic sound that is higher than the human hearing range. The Pestrol Rodent Free technology emits a disorienting pulse that startles and frightens away cockroaches and rodents from your home or office. Using a variable pulse generator, Pestrol Rodent Free emits fluctuating sound waves so pests don’t get accustomed to the sound. The Pestrol Rodent Free will need to be plugged into a powerpoint approximately 0.2 metres from floor level in order for the ultrasonic to run along the ground, living rooms and hallways. Ensure the unit is placed in an unobstructed area for the ultrasonic waves to achieve maximum coverage- ultrasonic waves do not pass through solid objects and or turn, bend around corners
IONIC
This unit has a very small Ionic Generator that is well known to assist in the reduction of odours and smells. The limitation with this component is that it will only work in a small area from where the unit is plugged into the wall.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How many units do I require for my home/office?
For maximum effectiveness, it is recommended to have 1 unit per electrical circuit that is present in your dwelling. Often multi-story homeowners purchase 1 unit per floor.
How do I know if my Pestrol Rodent Free is working?
You may see increased activity as rodents and cockroaches are forced from their hiding places. Often it can take up to 3 weeks to remove rodents. Cockroaches may take longer as eggs can lay dormant for many months before they hatch. Pestrol Rodent Free has a full 100-day money-back guarantee, well and truly enough time to ensure you are happy with the results.
What happens if the lights stop flashing on the unit?
The Pestrol Rodent Free alternates the technologies so the rodents and cockroaches do not become immune. Therefore the unit switches on / off for maximum effectiveness.
Will the Pestrol Rodent Free affect my pets?
No, Pestrol Rodent Free has been used for many years by thousands of satisfied customers in Australia and NZ. Will not affect dogs, cats, birds, or fish as they have a different genetic structure to rodents and cockroaches. The ultrasonic sounds can in some cases be heard by cats and dogs. Pestrol Rodent Free cleverly allows the user to shut off the ultrasonic component of the unit, whilst keeping the electromagnetic technology running.
How long will the Pestrol Rodent Free last?
There are no moving parts in the electronic circuitry, we expect the unit to last up to approximately 10 years, and we also provide a 2-year manufacturer’s warranty.
I have Rodents in my roof and wall cavities, do I need to plug the Pestrol Rodent Free in these locations?
No, providing your plug the Pestrol Rodent Free into any power point, the electromagnetic technology will work through your electrical wiring that reaches into these cavities to repel Rodents from their hiding places.
Has the Pestrol Rodent Free been electrically tested?
Yes, the unit has passed all electrical testing. Will not affect any electrical equipment or WIFI products.
The unit has worked really well, however, I just spotted a rat or mouse; does that mean my unit has stopped working?
No, remember the first time you purchased the unit it can take up to 7-10 days to remove rats and mice from your dwelling. Rats and mice are always on the move and if you get a new infestation it can again take 7-10 days to get rid of the new intruders.
Does it matter what side of a double sided wall socket I plug my Pestrol Rodent Free unit into?
According to our customer experience and advice that has been provided by electricians. The results are better if the unit is plugged into the left-hand side.
How much electricity does the Pestrol Rodent Free consume?
Pestrol Rodent Free costs the same as running an 8 watt light bulb, equating to cents per month to run.
Is the Pestrol Rodent Free effective against Possums?
Whilst this technology has not been associated with repelling Possums, many customers have experienced favourable results in driving Possums from their homes.

Well these seem to have sorted our rat/mice problems that have been ongoing for months using rat sack. Very happy to say the least. No more vermin continuously dieing and rotting around our home finally.

Pestrol NOT rodent free
In October of 2021 I purchased Petrol’s rodent free repeller’s after we started to notice rats/mice infiltrating our 4 bedroom home.
It’s also worth noting that I also had a pest control expert come out to my home and strategically place rat bait in several locations around my home a few days prior to myself looking into Pestrol’s product offerings.
I wanted something that would work as a preventative solution rather than having to go along with the cycle of laying rat bait after noticing a infestation, so Pestrol seemed like a great solution according to their website.
So as suggested by their website I purchased 3 units which should provide adequate coverage for a house of our size.
The products themselves took almost a month to arrive which although disappointing, I was just happy to have finally received the product so we could start living pest free asap.
On initial use of the products I noticed that they make an audible clicking/high pitch sound, which I thought was strange because Pestrol says that the technology it uses cannot be heard by humans.
I’m not sure if this is a fault of the product, but either way if the product worked as described this would be a small price to pay, and eventually the sound just blended into the background white noise anyway.
According to Pestrol it can take 7-10 days for the device to repel mice/rats, but in our experience this was NOT the case, It wasn’t until over a month before we stopped noticing signs of rodent’s in the house.
I was sceptical whether it was Pestrol’s products that had helped with the decrease of rodent activity, as the timeframe lined up with how long the rat baits are supposed to take effect according to the pest control expert I used, as these baits are slow release and dehydrate rodents so they flee your property in search of water (so they don’t die in your home).
It’s now been 4-5 months since installing Pestrol’s rodent free solution, and once again for the last 3 weeks we have rodents infiltrating our home.
The only thing that’s changed is that we no longer have any rat baits left around the home and coincidentally that’s when the mice/rats have returned.
So I’m pretty confident in saying that it was the rat baits that initially got rid of the rodents and NOT Pestrol’s products.
I’m now left with three fancy flashing lights worth $337 that clearly do absolutely NOTHING to repel rodents like Pestrol advertises, and still no solution on how to help solve my rodent problem.
If Pestrol stands by the quality and effectiveness of their products, I welcome the opportunity for a representative of Pestrol to contact me in regards to a possible solution for my particular predicament, as I believe excellent customer service is just as important as providing quality products that work as advertised.
Any help from Pestrol would be highly appreciated, and I will update my future interactions with the company on this review.

So easy to control any nasties thinking that they might come inside.
David W. (verified owner) –
They don’t work. We have the same rat activity now as we had before, even close to the devices(???) That’s $337 I won’t see again, best to keep your money in your pocket.
Michael R. (verified owner) –
Efficient delivery. Appears to be effective.
Beth (verified owner) –
Fantastic product. We have been using this product for over a year now and found it really does work. We were living in a shed prior to building our house and the mezzanine was a haven for mice & rats. Since installing the Pestrol device it is Rodent free. We have now installed them in our house. Definitely worth the money.

Still not sure weather this product works efficiently as I have installed these and I still have vermin activity in my roof space
Peter (verified owner) –
The product does not work and I emailed them over a month ago without any response. The product is bad and the customer service is worse. I do NOT recommend this product or company

I have not noticed any cockroaches around the house as yet, but it being colder I feel I should wait for summer before I can say the products are working well. They are all plugged in and working.

Im nearly satisfied. Still have mice and rats in the roof (can hear them) but not as much as before. I read online that it can take a number of weeks to see a permanent result so im hopeful it happens.

No noises in ceiling space so maybe no rats
