FAQ
Does it work the same as a normal disco strobe light? What’s the difference?
A disco strobe light actually pulses faster than the MB100K but it only has a fraction of the candlepower. The MB100K is a 1 million candlepower high intensity strobe light. It is the intensity of the strobe lights that make our products so effective on any rodent.
Can't I just trap the squirrels in my attic?
You can. But. . .if you a have serious squirrel problem that has lasted months or years, the squirrels will return. When you trap a squirrel in the attic you have to use nuts or peanut butter. Once you trap the first squirrels, you will invite other animals in. Besides, the cost to trap just one squirrel by a professional averages to twice the cost of one MB10K Evictor Strobe Light.
My attic has mounds of pink insulation covering the attic floor. Will the strobe lights be effective if a rodent can tunnel into the insulation?
Squirrels will tunnel into the insulation. In some instances they have built a kind of insulation wall to hide from the light. However, squirrels prefer to live on top of the insulation, so it will not be a problem. The nests are easy to find because the insulation is depressed into a bowl shape. Also, when you place the strobe lights in the attic, you make the area an unsuitable place for squirrels to raise their babies.
How long does each Strobe Tube/Bulb last?
The Strobe Tubes/Bulbs can be expected to last for one year operated continuously. You can buy the MB10K and MB100k Replacement Tubes from Evictor Products Inc. here.
