1. DETERMINE THE SIZE OF YOUR ATTIC, CRAWLSPACE, WALL VOID, OR DARKENED AREA.

The EVICTOR® 10K covers a 15 ft x 20 ft. area. (300 square ft.)  You need to purchase enough strobe lights to cover the desired area and not leave any dark spaces. A squirrel, roof rat, raccoon or other rodent may contintue to live in your attic if it can shield itself from the light.

After installing the EVICTOR®, Flying Squirrels and Eastern Grey Squirrels usually leave the attic within one or two days.  Occasionally there may be an increase in noise and activity the first few days.  Squirrels can be very frustrated with the flashing high intensity light.  The EVICTOR® serves them an eviction notice and they are not happy giving up their home.

2. BEFORE ENTERING THE ATTIC, MAKE NOISE, THEN STOP AND LISTEN. 

The absence of noise in the attic usually means that the rodents have left the area.  Shine a flash-light into the installation area before entering.  Squirrels with with young can be aggressive.  Playing a loud radio near the entrance to the attic can help clear the rodents out of the space temporarily.  

3. HANG UP THE EVICTOR®, MAKE SURE THE ATTIC IS CLEAR.

Hang up the EVICTOR® in a central location, approximately three feet above the floor. The strobe lights should overlap and shine in all dark corners to create an umbrella effect. If there are windows in the attic tape cardboard over them to block off any outside light.

In order for the EVICTOR® to work properly, the space must be uncluttered and as dark as possible.  No other light source should be on to interfere with the performance of this product while in use. 

4. PLUG IN THE EVICTOR®

Plug in the EVICTOR® near a light switch or into a surge protector. Leave it on continuously day and night. In as little as twenty-four hours the squirrels will leave the attic.

It is highly recommended that a switch and outlet with GFCI protection be placed near the entrance of the space where the unit can be turned on and off remotely. For small attics it can be convenient to plug the Evictor Strobe Light® 10K unit into a nearby light fixture. 

FOR BEST RESULTS, IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED THAT THE EVICTOR® STROBE LIGHT OPERATE CONTINUOUSLY 24/7 YEAR ROUND.

Do not have the Entrance/Exit Holes sealed for at least 1 month. Many customers can not locate the entrance or exit holes and choose to leave the EVICTOR® operating year round for continuing protection against damage from rodents.

For best results it is recommended that the Evictor® operate continuously 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Do not seal the entrance or exit holes for at least one month. Exposure to the Evictor® trains squirrels, roof rats, norway rats, raccoons, and other rodents to hate your home. The Evictor® 10K discourages digging, chewing, and other property damage.

CAUTION!!!

Persons with medical conditions aggravated by strobing light should not be exposed to this unit.

WARNING!!!

High voltages are present inside strobe beam assembly wait at least five minutes after shutting off power before changing replacement strobe tube! If no switch is installed, care must be taken when entering or exiting attic crawlspace. This product produces a high intensity strobe light, do not look directly at the light! Your eyes will be adversely affected. Leave the space immediately

DOES THE EVICTOR® WORK THE SAME AS A NORMAL DISCO STROBE LIGHT? WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE?

A disco strobe light actually pulses faster than EVICTOR® but it only has a fraction of the brightness.  The EVICTOR® 10K is a 175,000 candlepower high intensity strobe light.  It is the intensity of the strobe lights that make our products so effective on any squirrel, roof rat, raccoon or other rodent.  

EVICTOR® 10K Professional strobe lights are also OMNI-DIRECTIONAL shining all all directions to create an umbrella effect in attics and crawlspaces.

DOES THE EVICTOR® DEFINITELY WORK? WHAT IS THE SUCCESS RATE?

EVICTOR® strobe lights are 100% successful at permanently evicting squirrels, roof rats, norway rats, and raccoons, and just about any other rodent.  They were tested on homes where squirrels occupied attics and crawlspaces for over 30 years.

WHAT RODENTS DOES IT WORK ON?

It works on Squirrels, Roof Rats, Norway Rats, Raccoons Feral Cats, Bobcats, Opossums, Groundhogs, Skunks and More living in attics, crawlspaces, and darkened areas under houses.  

It also works on Rats living in cars chewing electrical wiring.  It does not work on bats.

HOW MANY HOURS SHOULD THE EVICTOR® 10K STROBE LIGHTS BE LEFT ON FOR IN A ROW?

The EVICTOR® 10K Professional strobe light is intended to be left on 24 hours a day, 7 Days a week, 365 days a year.  If you had a serious rodent problems with multiple entry holes and a lot of damage, chances are other rodents will enter the attic if the strobe light is not left on.

HOW LONG DOES EACH STROBE TUBE/BULB LAST?

The Strobe Tubes or Bulbs are rated to last 7000 hours with continuous use of the EVICTOR® 10K Professional strobe light.  Many customers find it lasts well over a year.

IS THIS GOING TO MAKE MY ELECTRICITY PROVIDER RICH OR DOES THE STROBE LIGHT CONSUME LESS THAN ONE WOULD EXPECT?

Our products are very energy efficient and portable. The EVICTOR® 10K Strobe Light is 175,000 Candlepower and covers an area of 300 sq ft. yet discharges no heat. 

Energy usage for the Evictor 10K unit is only 105.12 kilowatt hours per year. Running continuously, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for a full year, the estimated energy cost is only $9.04.*

*Kilowatt-hours per year are a measurement of energy use. Your utility company uses it to compute your bill. $9.04 is based on continuous use for one year and the 2005 National Government average cost of $.086 per kilowatt hour.

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 can 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.  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 young.

MY PROBLEM IS NOT IN MY ATTIC. THE RODENT ENTERED MY HOME THROUGH THE SUB-ROOF BETWEEN MY FIRST AND SECOND FLOOR.  CAN A STROBE LIGHT BE PLACED IN THIS AREA?

Yes!  The EVICTOR® 10K Professional can be placed in a floor or ceiling.

HOW DOES THE STROBE LIGHT AFFECT RODENTS?

The EVICTOR® Strobe Light's high intensity flashing annoys the squirrel's eyesight making it difficult for them to live in and move around the space.  They will leave the space in a few days after installation of the light.

DOES IT WORK FOR MICE?

The EVICTOR® has not been tested thoroughly to work on mice, in a limited number of instances the strobe light has been successful.  If you have tried the EVICTOR® 10K Strobe Light on another rodent that is not mentioned on this site please contact us and tell us about it.
