I have Squirrels in my attic and wondering if this light would work against them?
175,000 CANDLE POWER HIGH INTENSITY STROBE LIGHT
Covers 30×30 Feet (900 sq .ft.)
Repels Squirrels, Rats, Raccoons, and Rodents from Attics, Crawlspaces, Wall Voids, and other Darkened Areas
Easy Installation – Plugs into standard 120V AC Electrical Outlet
Humane, Safe, and 100% Effective
Find out how they are getting in. Get a box of moth balls from the dollar store and throw them in the attic. They can't stand the smell. Then fix the entry point. A pellet gun, fire, and iron skillet works too.
Seal off the attic. Patch up holes and cover spaces that are wide enough for a squirrel to get through.
It will be much cheaper
If you decide to buy it, make sure the light covers the ENTIRE attic area. Otherwise will not work. Also they might just hide under insulation...
Found out where they are coming in but they built a nest in outside wall. Wonder if this month is when squirrels have baby's? They are coming in at vents on the end of the attic. Should I try moth balls? I set a live trap with food and they are smart or something because they havn't gone near it.
I set live traps and this is a smart squirrel and it never goes in the trap. I even set out rat poison and the squirrel eats it but never dies. I'm now going to place moth balls to see if this get rid of them. I think this squirrel is a female with babies. I know where the squirrel is coming in and I can seal it but I've been told if you keep out the mother she will find or make another hole to get back in.
I wonder if squirrels mover their babies like animals do?
When I had squirrels in the attic, I called in to a radio home fix-it show and they said to get human hair from a barber shop and put it where they were coming it to scare them away. I never actually tried that. I went up in the attic and made noise while someone else stood outside to watch for the squirrel to run out, then we lined the vent opening with flashing and attached screening. They didn't come back.
Old post but in the attic I would pipe in the music IRON BUTTERFLY - IN A GADDA DA VIDA
With the strobe light.
