The Battle Against Ticks And Fleas Goes 'Ultrasonic'!
Keef Whiteman - Friends of the Dog
A new age of tick and flea prevention has arrived! What do we need to know about them?
First of all the device emits ultrasonic pulses that are imperceptible to humans and pets, but disturb ticks and fleas, thus keeping them away from your pet. The operating range is approximately 1.5 meters. The device is primarily intended for preventive purposes. Now, lets learn more!
Are they safe?
Typically, ultrasonic pest repellers are considered safe for pets since the high-frequency sounds they emit are generally beyond the range of human hearing and pose no harm to dogs and cats.
Some sensitive animals may find the sound bothersome, so it's important to observe your pets' reactions to see if they react to the device’s sound frequency (Scotty has tried the ‘tickless’ device and gave it a 10/10!)
Why use them?
How do they work?
An ultrasonic pest repeller is an electronic device that emits a high-pitched sound. Humans are unable to hear the high-pitched sound, but household pests can hear the noise and are either killed, repelled, or incapacitated by it.

Why use them?
- Ultrasonic flea and tick repellents are built in an electronic system.
- This means that there are no harmful chemicals involved when using them.
- Most conventional flea and tick products like sprays, shampoos etc. contain harsh chemicals.
- Although these chemicals are approved by the FDA, they can still have an impact on the environment.
- Many products are known to cause itchy eyes, rashes, and breathing issues in kids and elderly.
- They can also harm pets causing skin problems, vomiting and plethora of other side effects.
- Some of the chemicals can even harm pregnant women and the growing fetus.
- Moreover, these products enter our landfills and water sources polluting them.
- Many fish and aquatic organisms are being harmed due to these chemicals.
- Due to these reasons, we need to look at alternative ways to get rid of fleas, ticks, ants, bed bugs and roaches.
- Keeping this view in mind, scientists are looking at chemical-free ways to keep our homes bug free and ultrasonic and sonic devices may be a result of this.
How do they work?
An ultrasonic pest repeller is an electronic device that emits a high-pitched sound. Humans are unable to hear the high-pitched sound, but household pests can hear the noise and are either killed, repelled, or incapacitated by it.
Benefits
- Even though the devices make life miserable for pests, they are safe for humans.
- You can also adjust the settings to target specific household pests, like lizards etc.
- Easy to use, simply plug in the repeller in a central area and the device will cover up to 5000 square feet. You can also select the intensity of the output. Lower ultrasonic output will repel rodents, rats and lizards, while a higher setting affects fleas, ticks and other smaller bugs.
- In addition to selecting the intensity, you can also vary the pitch.
- Many plug in flea repellents also come with night light feature that makes it ideal for kids rooms and in passages.
- Ultrasonic flea and tick repellers cost just pennies a day to operate.
- Safer and ethical compared to using poisons and traps.
Do consider the following - Some dogs and cats with sensitive hearing may find these devices uncomfortable.
- Never use ultrasonic flea repellers around epileptic or sick dogs.
- Room size: The larger the room, the harder it is for the device’s sound waves to reach all corners of the room.
- Furniture placement: Some larger furniture can block the sound waves from getting through, which can decrease the device's effectiveness.
- Device placement: Johnson says it's essential to place the device in areas where you've noticed pest activity, such as entry points or spots where pests are active.
- Environment: In addition to dust, rain, and snow affecting these devices, higher humidity levels absorb sound waves and make the high-pitched sound less threatening to pests.
- Pest type: Different pests may respond better to specific frequency ranges, so choose a device that emits a frequency range tailored to your specific pest problem.
