Does an Electric Rat Deterrent Really Work?

Yes. RatMat has been tested over six years of research and real-world applications, proving to be 100% effective at deterring rodents from protected areas. Unlike ultrasonic devices or chemical repellents that lose effectiveness over time, RatMat works immediately and consistently by delivering a mild electric pulse that conditions rodents to avoid the area.

Key findings from research and customer reports:

• Rats and mice actively avoid stepping on RatMat after a single shock.
• Food placed on the mat remained untouched for up to 25 days, even in areas with high rodent activity.
• Zero rodent-related damage to vehicles, machinery, and storage spaces in protected areas.

How RatMat Works

RatMat functions like an electric fence but is designed for ground-level protection. It consists of durable interlocking steel tiles that create a hard-wearing, conductive surface. When a rodent steps on the tiles, it receives a mild shock, training it to avoid the area. This makes RatMat a humane, non-toxic alternative to poisons and traps.

How Many Tiles Do You Need?

Each RatMat tile measures 30 × 30 × 1 cm and connects seamlessly to form a protective surface.

1. Measure the area you need to cover (in metres).
2. Divide the length and width by 0.3m to determine the number of tiles per side.
3. Multiply these numbers together for the total tile count.
