WHAT'S MEW
RAT WEAPON
An ultrasonic anti-rat
weapon with complex in
termittent frequency shifts,
the E-RAT-icator, has been
introduced by Vexilar, Inc ,
the Minneapolis based
company specializing in
ultrasonic products.
Developed in Japan, the E
RAT-icator has undergone
four years of intensive
research and testing. It
utilizes ultrasonic bom
bardment to drive rats from
premises and induces stress
severe enough that the
rodents’ reproductive and
feeding habits are shattered
One of the most adaptable
of mammals, the rat has
quickly built tolerance or
immunity to virtually all
poisons used against it. And
it is clever enough to avoid
poisioned bait and to in
dicate that it is poisoned ~o
other rats
The E-RAT-icatoi,
however, employs ultrasonic
frequencies in the 15 to 20
kilo Hertz range and can
vary frequencies and length
of due to the
special circuitry of the unit
The E-RAT-icator, once it
starts it’s ultrasonic attatk,
will drive rats from the area
covered within 10 to 30 days.
Periodic use of the unit after
that will prevent them from
returning
Tests have revealed that

causes rats to become
restless and to reduce their
food intake and their sexual
activity, says the
manufacturer. Undisturbed,
a single pair of rats can
theoretically produce as
many as 15,000 descendants
in a year’s life span.
Rats destroy an estimated
billion dollars worth of
property annually, in the
U.S. alone, not counting fires
they may start by gnawing
the insulation from elec
trical wiring. They destroy
approximately a fifth of all
good crops planted in the
world; and rats and rat
borne parasites spread 20
kinds of disease, from
typhus to the plague.
When rats flee the area
protected by the ultrasonic
unit, they are forced to in
vade the domain of other rat
packs. But rats are
territorial-aggressive, seld
om stray more than 300 feet
from their birthplace, and
will viciously exclude
strangers, condemning them
to death via starvation.
The E-RAT-icator can be
used singly or in multiple
hook-up, depending upon the
size of the building to be
protected. A single unit can
cover an area up to 2500
square feet and has an ef
fective distance range of
over 120 feet Its maximum
effect is within 75 feet,

MOISTURE METER
A new moisture meter - the
Froment 1209, now makes it
possible for farmers to
quickly and easily monitor
the moisture level of
forages, grains and hay and
thus zero-in on the optimum

and harvesting.

The Froment 1209
moisture tester is easy to
operate. One simply inserts
a sample of forage, gram or
hay and takes the moisture
test in less than one minute -
in the field, at the blower, or
as fed.
The instrument is
primarily designed for
teeing the moisture in
forages and grains that have
moisture contents between
25 per cent and 75 per cent.
One of its exclusive
features is that it utilizes
self-sealmg plastic bags for
enclosing the materials to be
tested. This prevents con
tamination of the unit and
eliminates false readings
due to sample residues left in
the instrument. Each bag
lias an area for conveniently
recording results of the test
sample.
