Repellio with children and pets

Chemical-free pest control for family homes, and the one exception every pet owner should know.

Many families choose Repellio for one reason above all: it keeps pests away without bringing poison, glue or springs into the home. Here is what that means for each member of the household.

Children

There is no bait box for curious hands, no spray mist in the air and no residue on surfaces where toddlers crawl. Because pests are driven away rather than killed, children will not come across dead mice or insects either. As with any plug-in device, use a socket where the device cannot be pulled out and played with.

Dogs and cats

The maker describes Repellio as harmless for dogs and cats. Most do not react at all. Animals are individuals, though, so watch your pet for the first few days. If your dog or cat seems unsettled in one particular room, move the device to a room your pet uses less.

Small pets: the important exception

Hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, chinchillas, gerbils and pet rats or mice hear ultrasound very well. They are, after all, close relatives of the animals the device is meant to repel. Do not use Repellio in the room where they live. A device in another room, behind a closed door, is a different matter, because ultrasound does not pass through walls.

Birds, reptiles and fish

The maker gives no specific information about these animals. If you keep them, plug Repellio in elsewhere first and watch how your animals behave before using it in the same room.

Chemical-free protection for the whole family. Test it for 30 days with the money-back guarantee.

Order Repellio

Simple electrical common sense

  • Use the device indoors and keep it dry.
  • Do not cover it with furniture, curtains or boxes.
  • Unplug it before cleaning and wipe it with a dry cloth.

Why chemical-free matters

Insect sprays leave a film on surfaces and a smell in the air. Poison bait can be carried around the house by the pests themselves, and pets sometimes find what was meant for mice. Repellio takes all of that out of the equation.
