Has anybody used those electronic pest controls that plug into your wall and if so, do they really work?
It is advertised to get rid of roaches, rats, and mice.

i have been using one for the past year. a few days before i plugged it in i was seeing 4-5 cockroaches a week (i live in an area where cockroaches are everywhere even if you have the cleanest house! )
after i plugged it in, it went down to 1-2 a week.
after about 2 weeks, i stopped seeing them all together.
i can let you know once the weather starts warming up again if they start to show up, but i honestly haven't seen one in sooo long.
so in my opinion, yes, they work.
email if you have any more questions!

I have used one for years and have not seen any roaches. This device has a high frequency sound that is adjustable and as far as I am concerned, it does the job. One other note, it does not work to get rid of ants.
