Protect Your Vehicle from Rodent Damage with RatMat
In France, there has been an increase in rodents chewing electrical wiring and building nests in vehicles. Rats, mice and even pine martens can cause significant damage to vehicles, potentially costing hundreds of euros for a standard car and thousands for electric vehicles, motorhomes, tractors and other specialist vehicles.
How Does RatMat Work?
RatMat works like an electric fence on the ground, creating a protective barrier around vehicles, buildings and other valuable property.
When connected to its power supply, RatMat creates an electrical deterrent that rodents learn to avoid. The system is designed to prevent rats and mice from crossing the protected perimeter while allowing vehicles, forklifts and people wearing appropriate footwear to pass over it.
You can drive over RatMat with a car, lorry or forklift truck, while rats and mice will avoid crossing the barrier.
A Non-Lethal Alternative
Traditional traps and poison are designed to kill rodents, which some people may find distressing. RatMat provides a preventative, non-lethal approach by keeping rodents away from the protected area rather than relying on poison or traps.
It only takes one rodent chewing through electrical cables to prevent a vehicle from starting. In some circumstances, damaged wiring can also create serious safety risks.
RatMat gives you an additional layer of protection and peace of mind while helping to protect your valuable property from rodent damage.
Protect Cars, Electric Vehicles, Motorhomes and Tractors
RatMat can be used to protect a wide range of vehicles and equipment, including:
-
Cars and electric vehicles
-
Motorhomes and caravans
-
Tractors and agricultural machinery
-
Commercial vehicles and lorries
-
Forklifts and other equipment
Rodents can cause expensive damage to electrical wiring, insulation, air-conditioning systems, air filters and vehicle interiors. Preventing access can be considerably easier and less costly than dealing with an infestation and subsequent repairs.
Protect Commercial Buildings
RatMat can also be installed at entry points and around the perimeter of commercial buildings, including factories, warehouses and supermarkets.
By creating a protected perimeter, RatMat can help prevent rodents from entering areas where they could cause damage or contaminate products and equipment.
What Happens When Rodents Encounter RatMat?
Evidence from use of RatMat indicates that rodent activity can stop at the protected perimeter. Rats and mice can learn from their experience with the system that the area should be avoided, helping to protect the vehicle or property inside.
RatMat has been used to protect vehicles that have previously experienced rodent damage, and the manufacturer reports extensive use without a vehicle being damaged while parked within a RatMat perimeter.
Protect Your Property Before Damage Occurs
Rodent damage can be expensive and difficult to predict. RatMat provides a preventative barrier designed to keep rodents away from your vehicle or property.
