When the rats I live with saw "rodent protection system", they thought it might be something to protect them from Shawn Woods. Now they're getting surly.
I had a friend leave his car at work for a few days as we went on a business trip. When we finally returned we noticed the engine making odd noises. Upon inspection, the wires to one of the spark plugs had been chewed straight through. We were both very tired, so I took him home that day. The very next morning, he opened the hood to have a better look at the damage and see if it was a quick fix but there was a rabbit having itself a meal.
I had major rat damage done to wiring of my car. Bought a new car, paid to have "rodent tape" around wiring. Tape $50.00 Application $300.00. We also use cotton balls soaked in peppermint oil in engine well. So far, so good.
Peppermint oil works, for a few weeks anyway. I've used it on several occasions to keep rodents out of unwanted places. For $6 (give or take a buck) for a tiny bottle, it's not the cheapest, but certainly not in the thousands range like this electric product that also uses your utilities or batteries. Otherwise I put out some snap traps and sticky traps to catch the stragglers.
This seems like a good way for storing something long-term in a garage or shed with a controlled environment. Even though we don't have a lot of vehicles in the yard from what I observed it seems like anything that's in constant use everyday the mice tend to avoid as the smell of people are always on it. But the moment it's parked somewhere and left for a week or two or even a month is when they start sneaking into the passages & vents and making homes under the hood. So this is good for protecting something collectible that isn't used all the time. It looks like it would also be good for preventing rodents from getting into bins of chicken feed :)
@@Tsuchimursu Not really. Because chicken feed itself is becoming rather expensive. The last thing you want is rodents thinking your chicken feed is for them. You also don't want them getting into the bins and making nests in there either. The zappy floor tiles are expensive upfront but if they last and continue to work over a long period of time then the price pays for itself by protecting your assets. The assets being your chickens and their food source. Seeing as eggs are slowly becoming hard for some people to find the zappy floor is a good idea for those who want or need it.
I live in a forest with lots of wildlife, including mice. Last week I discovered a mouse nest on top of my truck's engine! Of all the places he could have picked to build a nest he chose on top of an engine that I use - and gets hot - every day. No place is safe from mice.
Houston here. Same here. Rats were taking small snails into my engine on top and feasting there. Then I started smelling dead fish threw my vent. Opened hood and pile of shells and roach legs. Cleaned up an now have cotton balls there with peppermint oil. I check it weekly now.
Sorry Shawn. This video needs a couple more test, a little more information. What does it feel when you touch it, or walk on it while it's on? Is is safe around, kids, pet dogs and cats? What happens if a lot of leaves fall on it or get blown on it? Does it still work after being exposed to rain or snow. It certainly looks like a great product, but need to know more before spending the big bucks.
I see your point but we should use common sense. Shawn's videos are all about function, practicality, etc. and his point was clear to me. In a covered setting (even with no walls) the barrier serves its purpose by deterring the threat. Sure, no dead rodents in such an event, but the goal is vehicle protection from something other than a crook with a window breaking device looking for quick access. I don't see this product being used completely outdoors where it is subject to the environment for an extended period of time here in southern La. I suspect in MN, in Dec through Feb, it is a less appealing ball game.
A Class action Lawsuit should be brought against car manufactures for knowingly bringing to market vehicles that have soy based wiring that inherently draws mice to damage the wiring .
A few years ago, rodents found the wiring on my Kobata tractor. The dealer told me to look for eaten blue wires, and sure enough, that's all they touched. Seems that blue is better color to be seen by these critters than others. They also make a spray for the inside hood of your car to prevent squirrels from eating rubber/ wires under the hood.
Great idea, but it would be a lot cheaper to lay chicken wire on the ground and hook it up to an electric fence pulser. You could even buy a solar powered model. And nobody has mentioned anything about keeping this thing clean.
Not exactly a trap, but you don't need to worry about accidentally kill endangered rodent but you still want to make sure no rodents have funny idea to chew your wire. Expensive starting cost, not to mention the electricity bill, but the product definitely do as advertised.
I would love some sort hybrid between this and an electric fence that I could put up around my cabin, but it would have to go over uneven ground, and be relatively easy to put up/ take down. And they couldn't just go under or jump over. Also substantial enough that it wouldn't get knocked down by the neighbors dog or wandering deer. I would pay a lot for something of that effect.
Interesting product, but very impractical for use on the road at an rv park. Definitely need protection for the vehicles. But it has to be more simple and easy to set up (and take down). Some rv’ers say a motion sensing light, placed under the vehicle, will deter the critters. I use one of the catchAll live traps pretty effectively. Place on the inside of the tire and I normally catch 3 or 4 per week. Some sort of rodent force field would be the bomb for this application, but what would that look like?
I wish I could afford this! Had $2k+ of rat damage to my engine twice now, and Im pretty sure it's happened again despite mint spray. Luckily insurance covered both times (animal damage), but not sure how many times they will! I live in the sticks amd have a lot of rodent habitat around my habitat.
Two days ago, I got my car back from Honda. The wiring harness had to be replaced due to squirrel damage. The cost was $1,400. This was the second such incident in 10 yrs, so maybe the electrified zone might be the way to go.
I have had mice all over my engines for 23 years, so far nothing destroyed but they put nesting supplies on top of engine and do chew on stuff. I had to evict an opossum once who took a ride to the tire store, a man gave him the boot unfortunately.
How do you prevent someone from stealing your grid guard? Once people know these cost money they would just get stolen. I guess you can't use it outside? What about rain?
You guys think he's catching rodents, but he's actually training them for world domination,that's why he keeps them as pets so often, think about it o_o 😂
It did seem to work well, but is just too expensive. I guess if you have something super valuable that needed protecting, and had a lot of money to spend, it would be good.
Neighborhood cats will love that.! On shock, cat gets airborne and slides across your car hood with 20 switchblades sticking out of its feet.. Will do wonders for your paint !
Every winter, my car and truck come back covered in salt and ice. They drip conductive salt water all over the garage. I wonder if that would short out the grid guard.
Hi the tiles are designed to work in wet environments and have numerous drainage holes. Provided the tiles are not submerged under water they will work. The tiles are made from high quality stainless steel and should not corrode. Hope this answers your questions
You should try putting a motion detector directed at the middle where the food is. so the electric grid would turn on after hes already in the middle. And could the mouse escape then?
This looks really awesome, glad someone made it. I've made all kinds of home-made devices to try and prevent rodents getting in my vehicle, but nothing really worked.
I have mouse traps in my car one in the trunk one on the passenger floor. I get a mouse every so often you need to check before they start to decomposing. No more mouse poop or pee so it's a win.
Hey Speckled Jim - Lou here from TheGridGuard. Knock-Offs - Always a concern.....Right! If you get our System, you will see that we have spared no expense in manufacturing. It's pretty impressive stuff. High density PVC and stainless steel Grid work. The Energizer is a custom build unit as well. Not cheap to replicate. A lesser product will just not hold up to the traffic and weather. We also have pretty stout patents but you never know. We are here to help should you ever need a system. Best, Lou - -
Perhaps a 60x12 ScatMat with additional mat extensions would work too. It's flexible and a 9V battery works for months, or you get an AC converter for it.
Could you rebuild it with wooden boards, chicken fence and a power source for electric fences and try the same? Should be possible to nail the fence on wood and cut out patterns, wire it up and protect the toy car for less bucks.
I got a Honda EU3000I Inverter generator (normally about $2200) for free once because of mice. They made a nest inside of the cooling fan and it caused the engine to overheat so badly that it dropped a valve into the cylinder, destroying the internal parts of the engine. I bought new parts for it on eBay for like $120 and rebuilt the whole engine myself, and bam- I have a quiet generator that has zero issues running the A/C in my camper. It’ll even run it all night long while making minimal noise.
I just paid over a hundred dollars for a fan motor and a cabin air filter. So glad I didn't have to pay someone to put them in. Mouses kamikazed in the fan and they had nested and dined on the air filter. I was blowing that nasty air through the car every time I drove it! I knew I'd been smelling mouses for a couple of weeks. Yuk!
Good test, and appreciate the disclosure of how you got the product, and the objectivity of the testing. But I'm wondering if people could get shocked by it. Do you have to turn it off each time you go to your car? And maybe if you have two, clean, sealed walls in your garage, you'd only need to protect the other two sides.
It would zap rats better if it only turns electric field when some camera or a photo sensor detects the mouse ON the grid. Also this would save the battery
I picked up a massive rat at a client site. It made a nice little nest around the battery. I was lucky not to pick up any damage, but I managed to catch the bastard with a live trap.
Volvo tried soy based wiring way back in the 80s and it all fell apart. Why would any automaker make that mistake again? Also I'm pretty sure any determined rat would figure out to jump it. They jump huge gaps around here.
Surprisingly, they don’t tend to jump it. Part of this is because they have an option to go elsewhere, part of it may also be because, as Shawn said, They seem to be able to detect the electric field. In this case, they would not be able to see how far the field extends and this may stop them wanting to jump into it.
If this could go around the bottom of my house it might be useful. I have a ton of snakes so not many mice but they find a way in sometimes and the occasional snake inside aswell.
@@-danR well bear boards with nails in it is more ugly and nasty with punctured feet - while a good zap to a cow with a live electric wire keeps them in check ... and a hot pad of zap for a bear would make them think twice having feet the size of dinner plates touching all those electric grids. Just one touch and it would be - dont fook with me bear - nothing to see (smell or eat) here - move along - move along !!!
@@-danR might be a good option in the wilderness around a campsite and Yosemite with the bears tearing apart cars - and that would cure them of their boisterous attitude !!!
my brother inlaws truck had a squirrel nest in it during the winter, the check engine light came on and it didn't get good mileage, and sadly dodge doesn't make the parts he needs anymore he needed a new circuit board and wiring harness.
1st entry on the Website of it ( in the description if you read it ) : A human won't get a shock from water on the floor in contact with the tiles, however it is advisable to wear shoes and avoid contact. If the tiles are submerged they will cease to function. The Grid Guard is made from PVC and stainless steel which we expect to last for decades, even in harsh weather conditions.

I leave my hood open all the time while in storage and it seems to deter them making a nest under the hood
Where did you put the cotton balls and how often did you refresh them? Was this a car that was stored or being driven frequently?
This seems like a good way for storing something long-term in a garage or shed with a controlled environment.

Thank you Shawn for keeping it real and honest since day 1!
never thought 1 m people would be so invested in killing rats, i think we are human after all
From a company called Hammer Tech, I expect it to fire tiny rodent-seeking darts that explode or something. But this'll do. :D
Haha Ironman 2 reference
Yes, Hammer Tech designed the original Rat Mat, Grid Guard gained exclusive distribution and made further enhancements.
Great for stored classic cars.

Totally agree. What is the child and pet safety like?
Very well and comprehensively put. And snow salt slush would total the thing.
Also, rats will climb into trees and shrubs, so this wouldn’t prevent one from jumping onto your protected item from above.

Blue must taste better
@@nominalvelocity That's why they make blue M&M's.
Likely the dye used inn the blue wires either that or that manufacturer used a soy based plastic.
Great idea, but it would be a lot cheaper to lay chicken wire on the ground and hook it up to an electric fence pulser. You could even buy a solar powered model.
And nobody has mentioned anything about keeping this thing clean.
You can't electrify something that's grounded. That's why electric fences have insulators and why this product has the plastic base.
@@johnnyrambles chicken wire on masonite board then. Still $900 cheaper. Innovation Johnny, "innovation"...
Not exactly a trap, but you don't need to worry about accidentally kill endangered rodent but you still want to make sure no rodents have funny idea to chew your wire. Expensive starting cost, not to mention the electricity bill, but the product definitely do as advertised.
The electricity use of this would be negligible. It's essentially an electric fencer supply. High voltage, very very low current.
It draws 0.4W.

And they couldn't just go under or jump over. Also substantial enough that it wouldn't get knocked down by the neighbors dog or wandering deer. I would pay a lot for something of that effect.

Then sits in the car and drives away. Then returns back because it forgot the grid guard, tosses it in the trunk and drives away again

@@-danR well bear boards with nails in it is more ugly and nasty with punctured feet - while a good zap to a cow with a live electric wire keeps them in check ... and a hot pad of zap for a bear would make them think twice having feet the size of dinner plates touching all those electric grids. Just one touch and it would be - dont fook with me bear - nothing to see (smell or eat) here - move along - move along !!!
@@-danR might be a good option in the wilderness around a campsite and Yosemite with the bears tearing apart cars - and that would cure them of their boisterous attitude !!!
This looks like a great product, I may have to invest in this!
I'm going to tile my whole house and garage with that thing
The house that mouse built, Disneyland, must have bit Shawn's wallet hard. Now he is coming up with electric rides for the nice. ;-)
for two to seven thousand dollars it better work.
Having a cat in the garage would be cheaper.
my brother inlaws truck had a squirrel nest in it during the winter, the check engine light came on and it didn't get good mileage, and sadly dodge doesn't make the parts he needs anymore he needed a new circuit board and wiring harness.
This is a great system.
I bet it will keep the neighbor’s dog from peeing on your tires too. 🤣
It should let the rats cross and zap them when they are inside the perimeter.
What about pets? I thought that there would be lots of comments about pets and other animals, but nothing, except questions about rain, salt and such.
If it is not a lethal device then the pets would quickly learn not to step on it.
Looks like a good product
What, if any water insulation? I would imagine this for garage use only and not great for wet or slushy days.
1st entry on the Website of it ( in the description if you read it ) : A human won't get a shock from water on the floor in contact with the tiles, however it is advisable to wear shoes and avoid contact. If the tiles are submerged they will cease to function. The Grid Guard is made from PVC and stainless steel which we expect to last for decades, even in harsh weather conditions.
Even a rat came 2:25
I wonder if this would work for keeping raccoons out of my truck and workshop.
