Inner-Soil Vibration in Pest-X-Repel Electronic Repellers
The use of vibration as a means of pest control is most frequently observed in treating infestations of underground rodents and reptiles. The Pest-X-Repel models that utilise this method (KR-7 and RR-2) are strictly intended for outdoor use and are meant to be placed underground. Once installed, the devices produce a regular vibrating emission which spreads within the soil.
The target species, such as moles, voles, underground reptiles and etc., have an acute sensitivity to inner- soil vibration and perceive it as a threat. The reason for this is underground vibrations are often an indication of an approaching predator or seismic activity, which provides strong incentive for resident pests to relocate and seek shelter elsewhere. The vibration emissions are separated by differing intervals in order to avoid habituation.
Coverage
The coverage of vibration-based electronic repellers is highly contingent on the quality of installation and soil composition, since both affect the degree of dispersion. Generally, soil that is denser and moist is a better conductor for underground vibration. This should be kept in mind when creating the perimeter of the installation within your control area. Depending on soil composition, it may be worth considering reducing the space between your electronic repellers.
When installing your Pest-X-Repel KR-7 or RR-2 it is vital to ensure that the unit is in good contact with th surrounding soil and is placed at the appropriate depth. Please refer to the KR-7/RR-2 manuals for further instructions.
