Ultrasonic Squirrel Control Devices:

Squirrels can hear these devices but people can’t. So when squirrels are exposed to their irritating or loud sounds they tend to stay away–just like you wouldn’t buy an apartment near a busy airport if you had a choice. The indoor units won’t effectively evict squirrels living in a house or other structure, but they can greatly reduce the chances of new squatters moving in. Both outdoors and indoors, ultrasound is blocked or reduced by obstructions (it is completely blocked by walls)–so ultrasound devices work better in clear yards than in cluttered landscapes, and in open attics rather than in ones studded with cartons or partitioned by dividers.

Victor Pest Chaser® Rodent Repeller

The Pest Chaser® repels rodents (squirrels, rats, and mice) from indoor areas by emitting high-frequency ultrasonic sound waves (range: 32-62 kilohertz) to create an acoustically hostile environment. The sounds are completely inaudible to people and non-rodent pets. Rodents are unlikely to get used to the Pest Chaser®, because it has a complex output that varies in both frequency and intensity. The Pest Chaser provides coverage for a single space or room of about 400 square feet and works best when there are few intervening obstacles like furniture or stored products. A light on the unit shows when the Pest Chaser® is working. The unit is AC powered and is rated to have an average service life of five to seven years.

Yard Gard: ultrasonic repeller, AC or battery powered yard and garden protector by Bird-X

A strong and versatile ultrasound generator designed for both indoor and outdoor use, the Yard Gard can repel raccoons, squirrels, dogs, cats, skunks, deer, armadillos, opossums, rats, bats and other animals without disturbing birds or fish. Well-suited to protecting yards, gardens, patios, porches, greenhouses, garages, and building interiors, the weatherproof Yard Gard covers an area of up to 4,000 square feet and is easily mounted on a pole or flat vertical surface by means of keyhole slots at the back of the unit.

The powerful (100+ decibels at 3 feet) ultrasound emitted by the Yard Gard can be adjusted to a wide range of frequencies (15,000 to 25,000 Hz) to deal with specific creatures. Powered either by 4 "C" cell batteries (not included) or by AC current, the Yard Gard comes with a 30-foot extension cord and a 110 volt AC adapter that has its own 6-foot cord. If set to operate intermittently (in either battery or AC mode) the unit will only generate ultrasound when its motion sensor detects movement within the sensor's 35 x 70 foot range. However, the unit can also be set to emit sound continuously if it is working in AC mode. Some people with good high frequency hearing can hear the unit at its low (marginally sonic) frequency settings, but this situation can be resolved by selecting higher settings.

To repel squirrels and smaller animals, dial the frequency to the rodent setting, connect the Yard Gard to an AC outlet, and set it up for constant emission. Repelling squirrels from the area of a bird feeder can be a challenge because the seeds are a highly attractive food source. The sound waves from the Yard Gard only expand to a height of about 3 feet, and the sound goes out in a straight line, so it cannot go around objects such as trees. To get optimum performance, set the Yard Gard at a height or angle that will directly target the bird feeder and treat the bird seed with Squirrel Away™, a product that is inexpensive, harmless to birds, and offensive to squirrels.
