Abstract
A pest-control device that repels pests with sound is illustrated and described. The pest-control device can, for example, be plugged into a standard wall socket. Sound-transmission openings in the pest-control device can be positioned to selectively direct sound sideways along the wall including the socket. This can increase the effectiveness of the device at repelling pests in corners along the edges of floors and countertops, where pests tend to travel. The pest-control device also can include a light sensor that detects the ambient light level. An output volume can be permanently configured or temporarily configured to increase in response to a signal or absence of signal from the light sensor. For example, the pest-control device can be configured to increase the volume of pest-repelling sound at night when pests are most active and people and pets typically are not present.
