Does Rat Repellent Work?

The answer to the question depends on the type of repellent you are talking about. There are many varieties with home remedies such as peppermint oil, garlic oil and ammonia being the least likely to work. The forums have many people saying that these methods are effective but there are also many people who say that they make no difference.

Part of the problem is that in order to be effective the concentration of these odours needs to be high. This can make it unpleasant for the homeowner. As they tend to be volatile substances the concentration often drops off quickly meaning that they need to be replenished often. An arduous task if a large area needs to be treated.

Proprietary repellents may be more effective but the reviews, again, are mixed. Some of them are also toxic making them unsuitable for use where there are animals or children about. High-pitched noise generators also have mixed reviews.
