USKICH 10 Pack Snake Away Repellent, Snake Repellent Balls for repelling Outdoors Indoor Snakes Rats and Other Pests, for Yard Lawn Garden Camping Fishing, Natural Plant Formula Pest Insect Control…

Second time to order. They do deter squirrels. Use rubber gloves to handle. Put the balls in the little sacks. They will last longer. They last a while. They smell like garlic.

I would give ZERO stars if I could! The box and advertising boldly claims that these foul-smelling concoctions are “safe for kids and pets!”. THIS IS A BLATANT AND DANGEROUS LIE. Peppermint and other essential oils can have highly toxic effects on cats and dogs, to say nothing of smaller, more delicate pets like birds, hamsters, or reptiles. Just INHALING the nauseatingly powerful, nose-burning fumes can cause serious harm to a small animal, and extended exposure will almost certainly lead to serious problems! Ingestion (such as by a curious dog or cat) would mean an emergency trip to the vet!Another member of the household bought this product without my okaying it, and these caustic monstrosities are now on a one way trip to the dump. Oh, and the scent also drove (or possibly attracted—apparently, a few snake species are actually drawn to peppermint?) a wild snake into my basement, as well (the first time such a thing has ever happened in my home). So even if you aren’t a pet owner, you may want to avoid buying these… unless you enjoy being jump-scared by slithery home invaders when you open your basement door.

Difficult tto know long term benefits

I’ve tried traps and a host of other advice to get rid of my not too friendly ground squirrel until I tried this product. He really don’t like the it and it’s been 2 weeks so hopefully I won’t see him again.

I placed all 20 balls in the bag throughout my attic and my yard. It did seem to deterre the Squirrels, however after it rained they were back.

Love the Product.... But.....IT CANT GET WET...I placed 1/2 ( out of 20) in my yard and for 2 days it Worked !!! KEPT THE SQUIRRELS outta my feeders. !!!!Then it R.A.I.N.E.D.....& my squirrel repelant DISSOLVED..For THAT price.... It should be stated on the pkg :" DO NOT SOAK "" DO NOT GET WET "IT STATES NOTHING OF THE SORT.!!!Lot of $$ to throw away when on a product you can't use once WET..TOO BAD it's not ANYWHERE on the packaging about WEATHER...I'll disperse the REST after the R.A.I.N. passes .

Seemed to work

Did not work, I put 5 of them under my boat and the rabbits still relaxed right by them, find another method to use !!!Also in a box of 20 balls there was only 10 baggies to put them in, what the heck ???
