With more than 250 identified species worldwide, shrews are small mammals recognized by their elongated snouts, sharp teeth, dense fur, and five clawed toes. These adaptable animals can be found in a wide range of habitats, including many terrestrial environments around the world.

How to Help Discourage Shrew Activity:

For yards, gardens, and areas 3,000-4,000 square feet: The Yard Gard and Solar Yard Gard are electronic ultrasonic devices designed to help discourage shrews and other pest animals from entering treated areas. These ultrasonic devices emit high-frequency sounds outside the range of human hearing and are designed for use in outdoor spaces. Weather-resistant and water-resistant, these low-maintenance products provide an option for outdoor pest animal deterrence.

For large, remote outdoor areas up to 6 acres: The Critter Blaster PRO is a sonic pest control system designed to help discourage pest birds and animals, including shrews, from entering treated areas. Featuring a four-speaker system with eight customizable sound options, the Critter Blaster PRO provides adjustable settings for use across large, remote outdoor spaces.

Shrew deterrent methods can be used to help manage shrew activity across a variety of species and environments.
