It's Autumn in Australia, and the mice are making themselves at home in my kitchen. My question is, has anyone had any experience with electromagnetic or ultrasonic pest control devices? I would like to know if they are a worthwhile investment.

i find a very heavy hammer and possibly a thermo nuclear flame thrower to be very handy...

Get a cat. Nature's best and softest pest control.

Just don't give the cat treats at diner time. It might return the favor.

ive only seen positive feed back from the adverts
i dont think the mice will mind if they have to put up with a sound if there is food about they will there for go outside to nest and still nip inside for a feed
So yes they work in that they may not nest inside but a hungry mouse will still come inside
