Does riddex work as well as they advertise?

Answer 1

"No. Most people say it actually ATTRACTS bugs" That is a simple answer, but the useful answer is more complex. Basically though, the device does work, but only in a limited area. For instance, in a part of your home where there is no wiring, the bugs might find a nice place to hide, thought of course the manufacturer claims, without much evidence, that it covers one whole level of a house. It apparently sends out a signal/sound that bugs cannot tolerate. You can imagine how that doesn't really cover all the bases. If it were me, I would put them in the kitchen and dining areas where food is, so they won't hang-around anything to eat, and forget trying to cover every other square inch. I wonder though, as the device wears out over time, does the frequency of the sound/signal change, and actually do what that one post above suggests, attract bugs?

Answer 2

I don't know how well they say it works, but all it does is help bacteria growth in your septic. The bacteria eat the solids in the tank.

But if you don't have a septic tank your in good hands.
