Want to Know How to Get Rid of Rats? Ask the Peeman, like Kathryn did

Rats hanging out in cars and eating essential parts is a common enough problem in the District of Columbia. As City Desk previously chronicled, it happens in Adams Morgan. It happens at 15th and U. Kathryn Kailian, anesthetician who lives in Dupont Circle, had to take her car in six times for service because of rat damage. At one point, she submitted a claim for the $1,200 her dealership charged to completely re-wire her vehicle. “Our insurance company dropped us,” she says.

Fed up, Kailian Googled for solutions and found PredatorPee Coyote Pee. She ordered a bottle of it on the Internet, sprayed it on her engine, and hasn’t had a problem since. One bottle will last her “for years” since she only spritzes every few months. The smell dissipates pretty quickly and the rats have left her alone, despite the fact that she parks in an alley with Dumpsters filled by Five Guys, Chipotle, Cosi, and other delicious-to-rats restaurants.” Posted by Jule Banville < WashingtonCityPaper.com/blog on Feb. 6, 2009 at 10:26 am

 

You always know when you have rats. You know – you go down in the basement and turn on the light and you see just the flick of black cord-like tail disappear in a dark corner. Or you see the ugly droppings or you spot one burrowing in the chicken feed. No matter whether they are city rats, roof rats, country rats, Norway rats or whatever you call them in your neck of the woods, you just want them GONE!

The PeeMan to the rescue! PredatorPee Coyote Pee will get rid of the rats- it is as simple as that!

Here is what you do:

To Keep Rats Out of Buildings:  Use liquid CoyotePee in our 12 or 16 ounce bottles in conjunction with our ScentTags or 33Day Dispensers.  Just fill the dispensers or spray the tags and hang on the provided wooden stakes every 10-12’ around the outside of the foundation.

To Get Rats Out: Use our specially designed “pee-loaded” CoyotePeeShots. Just take off the caps and place in those dark corners that rats love – like under the sink or anywhere you have seen droppings.

To Keep Rats out of Your Car: Use PeeShots placed by each tire and in the engine compartment while the vehicle is parked.

 

Thanks to the help of our customers, we found that when it comes to Pee, rats hate CoyotePee. We don’t know exactly why they fear coyotes more than any other predator, but we know they do because our customers say so. Our Pee customers tell us what works, and the PeeMan listens and develops the pee products the people need in order to take care of their problem. It’s that simple.

Rodents Cause More Than £370m Of Damage Annually To Cars in the UK Alone

Guest Blogger Toby Bateson

Rats are renowned for being highly destructive. They are well known to damage food, clothing and buildings. roof-rat-961499_640They also target machines and computers, including the wiring in your car engine. Repairs can be expensive, sometimes an entire car may need rewiring as a result. For a high end sports car or SUV this can be in the region of £7000.

car-482683_640Research by Hammer Technologies has shown that an amazing 9% of car users in the UK have had their car damaged by rodents at some point. Damage found included chewed pipes, bitten plastic cowling and broken wires and pipes.

The reason they tend to do this is thought to be because their teeth grow constantly throughout their lives. They chew on hard materials such as steel wires in order to wear their teeth down. The warm engines of cars are also thought to attract rats looking for a home.

The survey demonstrated that the average cost of repair came to £300. The total cost of rat damage to cars every year was calculated to be an amazing £377,410,90.

The way this figure was found, if you are interested, is as follows.

In 2013 31 million cars were on the road in the UK, according to official Department of Transport figures. The survey showed an average of 1.86 rat damage events for each person who was affected. Eight of the 33 episodes reported occurred in the previous year.

9% of those surveyed had suffered rodent damage to their cars. The following sum calculates the total cost of the damage. 9% * 31 million cars * £300 * 1.86 episodes per person * (8÷33) episodes in the last year = £377,410,909.

If you have a car make sure you do everything you can to protect yourself. The PeeMan has products which will protect your car from rat damage.  Visit the store  now to get the protection you need.

Ask the PeeMan: CoyotePee vs. Rats

It is Wednesday, the PeeMan’s favorite day of the week! The day when I get to share with the whole world my pee-related wisdom. My wife would say that I do that every day BUT only Wednesday is “Ask the PeeMan” day on the blog. Enjoy!

Q. Hi. I’m pretty much sold, but we live in Chicago and the things come to our yard from the alley.  Question: how does it smell to humans? We want to repel the rats so we can enjoy the patio. And…will it drive my small dog crazy? I honestly don’t care that much, if the rats leave us alone.  Thx for your reply

A. CoyotePee smell dissipates quickly beyond range of the human nose and your dog will just be curious. Here is the link:

Ask The PeeMan – Oh Rats!!!

It’s Wednesday again and that means it’s time to Ask The PeeMan! Here are couple of “ratty” questions I have gotten in my PeeMail lately. Enjoy!

Q.  Hi,
My house backs onto a blueberry farm hence I am forever having battles with rats and mice that somehow get into our home.  I see that coyote urine is recommended for rats and bobcat urine is recommended for mice.  Do you recommend using both urines simultaneously (side by side) for both indoor and outdoor use?   Or should I just go with one type and if so, which one?

Thank you.

Philip

A.  Philip,
Rather than having you buy 2 types of urine, start with the CoyotePee and see how it does for both. Here is the link:

Q. I have a large macadamia nut tree which the rats love.  They pick the fruit or knock it off.  The tree overhangs my roof.   I have tried traps with banana, peanut butter, tangerines, avocados but they continue to go back to the nuts.  I have even tried the nuts themselves in the traps…no progress.  If I get the coyote pee, should I put it on the roof, hang it in the trees, or apply it some other way?  Thanks for any information you can give me.  I plan to order from you but am unsure of how to do the applications.

A. Spray CoyotePee liberally on the trunk of the tree and ideally also create a “pee-rimeter” back about 20′ feet from the tree.  The goal would be to intercept them before they get overwhelmed by the lure of the food source. See these links for more info:

All Natural, Safe Rodent Control – 100% PredatorPee

Hello All! Well, the snowbanks around here are almost as tall as I am, and the mercury is struggling to creep above zero. If I were a rat, mouse, mole or vole, I would certainly want to be anywhere INSIDE! It appears Maine rodents aren’t alone in that – the excerpts below from recent articles highlight problems with vermin from the west coast to across the pond.

Seattle, WA — (SBWIRE) — 12/18/2013 — Pest problems are not just limited to the elimination of the pest, people have to understand that pests such as rodents and mice do a lot more damage than just being a nuisance, rats and mice are notorious for the germs and diseases they spread. Additionally, these pests can also cause structural damage to a house, especially in the attics and crawlspaces. Thus, it is essential that not only the pests are taken care of but proper measures are taken to deal with the damage they might have done to a structure. http://www.sbwire.com/press-releases/attic-crawl-space-cleaning-nuisance-rodent-rats-mice-removal-414053.htm

Pest controllers have warned that Britain’s sizzling summer caused a huge increase in the number of rats and mice near our homes. The warmest, driest summer since 2006 helped Britain’s rats and mice reproduce in big numbers, according to Rentokil. And with temperatures set to plummet this month, they’ve warned homeowners that these rodents will now be seeking shelter indoors. The summer of 2013 saw lower rainfall than previous years and less flooding, allowing rodents to stay in their burrows longer and have undisturbed periods where populations grew. They now expect rats and mice to cause problems in Britain’s homes after their numbers grew ‘exponentially’. Female house mice can give birth to litters of up to 14 young, as many as ten times a year. David Cross. Head of Technical Training Academy at Rentokil UK, said: ‘Rodents like warmth, quiet and a source of food and as the first cold-snap is set to hit, it is worth following a few simple steps to avoid attracting rodents into your home.’http://uk.news.yahoo.com/pest-control-rats-mice-rodent-infestation-problem-vermin-rentokil-uk-123605184.html#FLdr6o4

Add to this that the EPA and other groups are growing increasingly opposed to the use of traditional rodenticides, and things are looking good for rodents and bad for home owners. Thankfully, we have a safe, all natural solution for your winter vermin problems – 100% PredatorPee! Our satisfied customers have used both our 100% CoyotePee and 100% BobcatPee successfully and safely for years.

But, don’t just take my word for it . . .

PROBLEM: Egg-Stealing Rats SOLUTION: 100% Coyote Urine

chickens
Howdy!

So much time, energy and money goes into raising chickens. Nothing is more satisfying than finding that first perfectly formed egg. Nothing is more devastating than having those eggs taken or the hens harmed.  It is a dangerous world for chickens, and one of the common threats comes in the form of a large rodent with a snake-like tale.  The Rattus norvegicus and Rattus rattus otherwise known as brown and black rats can wriggle their way into the smallest hole and steal away precious eggs and/or maim chickens. What is to be done? Well, as you may have guessed, we have a pee for that – 100% CoyotePee to be exact. But, you don’t have to take my word for it.

“Yes! I told the Chicken Chick about the rats in my coop and she told me to order from you, and so I did!  Thanks, tiff”

So, if you have Templeton the Rat sneaking into your coop, don’t wait. Go to www.predatorpee.com get your CoyotePee right away!

On the home front, I got myself a  hot tub! Once you reach a certain age, you wake with a new and exciting ache or pain every day. Well, I decided to take matters into my own hands, and while the wife was out of town, I looked up ‘hot tub” on that Craigslist thing and voila!  All I can say is aahhhhhhhhh

If you don’t have a hot tub, I hope you are enjoying this late spring evening in some other way.

Oh Rats!!!!

Well, in my neck of the woods, rats are few and far between. They have plenty of places to scurry and hide outside. But, I hear for city folks and others these disgusting rodents can be quite a problem. That is why I have developed an informational page just for those of you who are hearing unwanted pitter patter of little feet in your houses.  Rat Problems? Click here.

That is all I have for today. The snow is gradually disappearing and the maple trees are starting to give their sap, so I am hopeful for spring. The PeeMan
