The CARCAT story 2015-> 1st Gen -> CARCAT Ultrasound rat repellent (Launch) 2018-> 2nd Gen -> CARCAT-Duo – Ultrasound + LED(White) strobe 2021-> 4th Gen -> CARCAT-RED – Rat repellent system - ZigZag Ultrasound +Blue/Green LED strobe What happened to 3rd Gen CARCAT? CARCAT -3rd Gen was planned to launch in quarter-1 of 2020. But corona happened. The lockdown gave us time to up our research & development cycle and double the upgrades. This new cat on the block (4th Gen) has an all-round– Hardware + Firmware + Enclosure upgrade . Back in 2015 we could have never imagined CARCAT would evolve from just a rat repellent into a more complex rat repellent ‘system’, which also safeguards and monitors the cars battery for optimum use. This would not be possible without the support and feedback from our valued customers and CARCAT fans. It’s tough to get rid of rats- Research shows rats depending on their species, share around 92 to 95% of their working DNA with us, humans. They are very intelligent and extremely territorial animals. No wonder, rats are one of the toughest pest to get rid of. Rats are one of the most resilient and under estimated creatures on earth. They were here long before any human species walked the earth and they will probably be around long after we are wiped out. No wonder- they are one of the hardest pests to get rid of. There is probably no 100% way to get rid of them , but with each new upgrade we use that understanding to try and reach closer. Why do rats love your car’s engine area? Rats being nocturnal animals come out from their day dens (sewers & gutters) at night in search of food. Your vehicle’s engine area is a safe 2nd home to take food stuff and eat in peace – away from cats / dogs. Post dinner they have a necessary teething need to sharpen the insides of their front incisor teeth. Failing which can be life threatening, cause their incisors grow at a rate of about 3 inches annually. The near endless supply of cables & wire under the hood ensures they have a juicy chew all night. Your car even has essential and clean water supply in the wiper spray ducts. CARCAT-RED - 4th Generation What's New! ✔ ZigZag pattern ultrasound algorithm – Creates even more irritation and auditory distress to rats ✔ Optimized intermittent pulsing – 20% less power consumption than previous generations (without hampering efficacy) ✔ Green/Blue LED strobing – Maximizes rats dichromatic vision spectrum (They cannot see longer wavelength red light and is not used) ✔ Polycarbonate enclosure – Higher heat endurance under the hood - Fire retardant grade ✔ 2-meter wire - Longer harness - Reaches further away from battery ✔ Enable / disable below features with config touch key - Standby mode - when engine is running (works for both 12V and 24V system, default= Enabled ) Shutdown mode - Car battery low (<10.5Volts @ 12V and 21V @ 24V system) – prevent battery damage (default= Disabled ) 30 second audible beep - some customers are sensitive to audible beep (default= Enabled ) Happy Customers- With a efficacy of over 94% and 6000+ happy customers in India and globally, CARCAT comes 2nd to none , making it the most trusted method to safeguard wires and ducts under the hood of your vehicle from rats. A simple installation and 24/7 protection from rats and rodents, makes CARCAT the preferred and automatic choice for rat protection in cars, trucks and other vehicles across India and the globe. CARCAT-RED! Engineered to keep rats away! Built with the best design approaches and auto grade materials ✔ Heat and fire resistant polycarbonate enclosure ✔ Indian designed, German engineered piezo-electric crystal ✔ Broadband ultrasound emitting crystal & cavity resonator ✔ Waterproof sealing The brain & muscle powering CARCAT-RED Rugged PCB design! ✔ Auto grade electronic components - withstand high temperature under the hood ✔ Built-in surge protection circuitry ✔ Low-power microcontroller ✔ High-efficiency crystal driver & RGB-LED drivers ✔ Fail-safes to ensure CARCAT-RED functions without a glitch CARCAT-RED current status & mode- Installation and wiring guide for CARCAT-RED CARCAT- RED - Unboxed A - CONFIG Key (Touch) B - Mounting screws (x4) C - CARCAT-RED D - CARCAT cable (2 meters) E - RGB LED (Strobe / Status) F - Fuse box (Waterproof) G - Ultrasound crystal H (-) connector (Black insulation) I - Front grill J (+) connector (Red insulation) Ensure proper installation The unit should be mounted on a hard rigid surface and secured tightly to the mounting surface using the screws provided. Mounting should be such that the front grill of CARCAT always faces hard metallic / plastic surfaces. (This ensures multiple reflections of ultrasound waves. Ultrasound energy is quickly absorbed by soft materials like foam and rubber, drastically reducing performance.) The unit should be mounted away from hot surfaces or engine parts. Wiring CARCAT-RED to battery terminals First remove fuse from fuse holder(F) . Connect (+) connector (J) of CARCAT to (+) of battery. Connect (-) connector (H) of CARCAT to (-) of battery. Use cable ties to tidy up the wiring. Re-insert fuse in fuse holder (F) . Lower battery consumption Standby time - A normally used healthy battery will typically have no problems for around 15-20 days. Note:- The battery discharge curve does not include consumption of other equipment / devices like security systems which are also continuously powered by the battery. Typical self-discharge rate of 4% per week is considered. Do's & dont's to ensure maximum effect and efficacy with CARCAT-RED - 4th Gen Clearance from front grill for maximum effect Ensure minimum clearance of 20 cm (~8 inches) between front grill of CARCAT and any other engine part. In case of foam underneath the bonnet Do not mount unit facing the bonnet, if it is covered with insulating foam. CARCAT-RED should be affixed properly Never keep CARCAT dangling loose or suspended by its cable. Do not affix using double sided tape Never affix CARCAT using a double sided tape. Direct contact with metallic / plastic surface enhances repelling effect. Review: fully control of the rat protection in the car - जब से लगाया है गाड़ी में चुहे से मुक्ति मिल गई है Excellent Product – Truly Effective Rat Repellent! I purchased used 8 month the Carcat Rat Repellent Device for my car, and I’m extremely satisfied with its performance. Living in an area where rodents are a common problem, I was worried about wire damage and costly repairs. After installing this device, I’ve noticed a significant difference — no more rat droppings or signs of chewing under the hood. The installation was simple and straightforward. The device is compact, well-built, and fits neatly inside the engine bay without any hassle. I especially like that it works automatically and doesn’t require constant maintenance. It gives me peace of mind knowing my car’s wiring is protected. Overall, this is a reliable and effective solution for anyone facing rodent issues in their vehicle. Highly recommended for car owners who want a long-term and hassle-free protection system! Review: Worth every penny! - We park our cars outside and we recently had two incidents - rat bit and damaged the fuel line in my 18yr old Getz and couple of weeks later, it bit off the wiring in my wife’s Jazz. It’s not a matter of money, but rather the availability of the damaged parts and of course, the downtime. First I tried to eliminate the rat, but when I couldn’t I moved to creating a deterrent. Tried naphthalene balls, tobacco and eventually settled for spraying the engine bay with 3M rodent repellent. This was effective, but one day I saw rat droppings on the engine of the Jazz and attempted bite marks on my Getz’s fuel line. This meant the rats were revisiting and I needed to keep spraying the engine bays regularly. This is not always feasible, so I started looking for more permanent solution. I researched for devices that could be installed in the car that would keep the rats away. That’s when I came across Carcat. Went through their website in detail, read customer reviews on desertcart and other sources. One thing I realised is that the company has really put a lot of thought into their product, including researching on vermin behaviour and how to improve the product to counter the vermin menace. I didn’t find any other product which gave such detailed explanation on the problem and how the product was going to help deal with it. Sure, it’s expensive, but think of the ROI. Changing the wiring harness in the Jazz costs 17k, and if the ECM is damaged, add another 25k to that. Now imagine you having to change this frequently. In the case of my Getz, it was grounded for 7 weeks because I couldn’t find the replacement part! I had to finally source it from outside the country! So that’s that. Also, the product has nifty features, like turning off when the engine is started and the standby mode (when you go on vacation). It’s easy to install, just follow the instructions provided (which is pretty detailed I must add); it took me all of 30mins to find the spot to fix it, drill holes and finish the wiring. Adding the pictures and videos of the install done on our Jazz; one of the videos is the device disengaging when the engine is started and another one of the light works inside the engine bay when the bonnet is closed. I installed the device three days back and so far it’s doing its job. You may ask why this detailed review - well, I’m sure there are folks out there with the same predicament I was in and need a no-BS review, so here it is. I’ve purchased a second device for my Getz, which I’ll be installing tomorrow. And no, this is not a paid promo; I wish it was, but it isn’t. Hope this helps. Update: couldn’t upload multiple videos as desertcart doesn’t allow it. So, put all three in one. Enjoy. Update 2: It’s been more than a month since I installed the Carcat in both our cars and I’m happy to report that there have been no intrusions in the engine bay nor any untoward incidents with the car involving the vermin. No, it is not that they’ve migrated to Canada; I still see them scurrying about (big fat ones) - they just don’t mess with our cars. So, all in all a great product and a worthy investment. ## Features - ✔️ PREVENTS EXPENSIVE CAR REPAIRS – Helps protect vehicle wiring, engine bay insulation, sensors, hoses, and cables from rat chewing. - ✔️ ADVANCED ZIGZAG ULTRASOUND – CARCAT ultrasonic rat repellent uses continuously varying ZigZag ultrasonic waves designed to create discomfort for rats inside the engine bay. - ✔️ 24/7 ENGINE BAY PROTECTION – Operates continuously to help deter rats from entering parked cars, SUVs, commercial vehicles, and automotive engine compartments. - ✔️ HELPS REDUCE RAT NESTING – Designed to discourage rats from nesting inside the engine bay where warmth and shelter attract rodents. - ✔️ EASY BATTERY CONNECTION – Simple 2-wire installation connects directly to the battery without wire cutting or vehicle modifications, helping preserve your car’s original wiring and warranty. - ✔️ LOW POWER CONSUMPTION – Energy-efficient design consumes minimal battery power during continuous operation for long-term vehicle protection. - ✔️ SAFE FOR HUMANS & NON-TOXIC –Built under IRPA ultrasonic safety guidelines for safe daily automotive use around people and pets. - ✔️ HEAT, FIRE & WATER-RESISTANT DESIGN – Rugged polycarbonate enclosure is designed to withstand high engine bay temperatures, moisture, and regular automotive operating conditions without melting or deforming. - ✔️ SUITABLE FOR ALL VEHICLE TYPES – Works with petrol, diesel, hybrid, and electric vehicles for reliable engine bay protection. - ✔️ MADE IN INDIA – Designed and developed using ultrasonic rodent deterrent technology researched and refined globally since the 1980s for long-term automotive protection. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08YFJJH5Q | | Best Sellers Rank | #969 in Car & Motorbike ( See Top 100 in Car & Motorbike ) #1 in Automotive Ultrasonic Pest Repellents | | Brand | carcat ultrasound rat repellent for automobiles | | Colour | Red | | Country of Publication | India | | Customer Reviews | 3.9 out of 5 stars 1,722 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Polycarbonate (PC) | | Included Components | CARCAT-RED, Installation manual, 4x screws, 4x small cable ties, 4x unit fastener ties | | Is Electric | Yes | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 11L x 6.5W x 2.6H Centimeters | | Item Type Name | Ultrasonic Rat repellent | | Item Weight | 222 Grams | | Manufacturer | Address (Desingned, Developed, Manufactured and Marketed) 24/5th flr/A-wing, Gurudatta Building, R.B.

My neighbour also bought this but the rat has bitten the device cable itself Thanks ## Frequently Bought Together - CARCAT Ultrasound Rat Repellent for Automobiles - 4th Gen car Rat Repellent - red - Made in INDIA -Waterproof Rat Repellent for cars - 94% efficacy, cream - 3M Rodent Repellent Coating, 250 g| Rat Protection for Engine Parts and Wires | Long-Lasting Effect --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/349772891-carcat-ultrasound-rat-repellent-for-car-4th-generation-ultrasonic-rodent](https://www.desertcart.us/products/349772891-carcat-ultrasound-rat-repellent-for-car-4th-generation-ultrasonic-rodent) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-11*
