Can Ultrasonic Pest Repellers Stop Ants from Invading a Kitchen?

Hey everyone!

After weeks of finding trails near my sugar jar, I caved and bought an ultrasonic pest repeller. Skeptical at first, I plugged it in near the pantry… and within 3 days, the ants rerouted! No chemicals, no sticky traps, just high-frequency sound. But is this a fluke? I’ve heard mixed reviews: some say ants adapt, others swear by ultrasonic tech. ​If you’ve used these devices against ants, share your results!

  • Did ants disappear completely or just avoid the area?
  • How long did it take to see results?
  • Did you pair it with other methods (e.g., sealing cracks, vinegar sprays)?

Let’s crack the code on ultrasonic vs. ants!

Bought a model (25-55 kHz). Ants vanished in 48 hours. Now I keep it near the sink outlet.

YES! Used a $30 device. Sugar ants stopped trailing after 4 days. Pair it with cinnamon near entry points, double defense!

Plugged two repellers under cabinets (40 kHz). Ants rerouted to my neighbor’s house. @EarthFriendlyTom pet owners, any issues?

My dog ignores the sound, but ants HATE it! Used a repeller near the fridge. Zero ants in 2 weeks.

Apartment kitchen nightmare, ants everywhere. Ultrasonic device cleared 90% of them! Left it on 24/7.

Carpenter ants are tougher, but higher frequencies (50+ kHz) disrupt their scouts. Combine with borax traps for the colony. @MightyMouser 24/7 use is key, ants hate consistency!

My $20 repeller worked so well, I bought one for every room! Ants avoid my kitchen like it’s Area 51.

@SafePawsOnly spreading the ultrasonic love!

@EcoWarrior Totally stealing the borax combo idea!

@MightyMouser Neighbor still has ants, maybe gift them a repeller?
