Pestplug 4" X 25' Long, 100% Stainless Steel Wool

Very good wool for plugging rat/mice openings. Really like that it is stainless steel and doesn't rust. The only negative was the junky scissors included with the wool. They can't even begin to cut the stuff. In fact, they barely cut paper. Dear Mfgr., if you're going to include scissors, make sure they cut your product! Otherwise, just leave them out. Anyway, the wool itself is really good.

Working in a tight crawl space, the gloves and scissors worked perfectly. I used a wood chisel to insert the product where I wanted it to go. Now let’s see if I get any more mice in my basement!

Be ready to clean up a LOT of tiny metal filings, because this stuff makes a mess!So far it has been about 8 months & there are no signs of rust.So aside from the initial mess & process to install, this product seems to be genuine & works as intended.

I have not had any more mice indoors since I installed the steel wool. I had to use tin snips to cut 4 inch X 25 ft size into 3 equal widths, then tucked the 25 ft lengths up into the space between the foundation and the Trim board. Very Difficult to cut. Wear gloves included and wear eye protection. I threw my shirt away since it had so many little shards of steel wool imbedded in it.

Mice cannot chew through this stuff. I tried using Pestblock but they chewed through that product. You will find the included scissors not up to the task of cutting the steel wool. Get a pair of tin snips.

Fabulous product I needed it for mouse and chipmunk proofing! I am thrilled...I use metal cutting shears and it cuts through easily. I appreciate the gloves they gave as a gift to protect my hands...I was using regular steel wool but it rusts...I am so thrilled to have this. It really is easy to use...

It's awfully nasty to work with, but for the same reasons that the rats hate it. Successfully plugged up several holes and haven't had any further rat invasions. As others reported, scissors are wimpy, and I recommend using leather or other heavy gloves with it. I found that some finely serrated electrician's scissors were easier to use to cut it than the supplied scissors. Be prepared to clean up a lot of little pieces of wire when you're finished. It's great for oddball holes not easily plugged with screen, plaster, or concrete.

We used this product after a rat infestation in our single story attic back in 2015. After replacing our roof in October 2019 we purchased Pestplug again. After researching the subject of how rats can enter an attic area through very small openings it was apparent that a flexible weather resistant product would be required to obstruct all openings around our home. After installing Pestplug I engaged a process to remove pests remaining in the attic. After a four year test and no sign of pests in our attic I can safely say the product works. Due to its heavy stainless steel construction rats cannot eat through the materials and consequently do not enter our attic.
