Shae - I do not call repelling rats from a kitchen...success. You still have a rat infestation. That's exactly what ultrasonic devices do; they repel rodents, they do not eliminate the problem. In the case of the continual squirrel problem, I subscribe to live trapping and removal. Squirrels are easy to trap with a Havahart type trap. Close one end. Use salted peanut halves as a trail leading into the trap. Then place some salted peanuts under the front of the treadle. The squirrel will commit completely into the interior of the trap and stick his blunt nose under the treadle to get to the trove of peanuts you've placed there. Bingo! One trapped squirrel. It's best to put the trap out at night; the squirrels will be foraging early the next morning. Take the squirrel at least a mile away and release it. Keep doing it until the squirrels have been eliminated.

Why do you think they do not work?
