Description: Here's a commercial for Pest-Free (beginning cut-off slightly - this is the only copy I've found so far) which claims to be able to get rid of cockroaches, fleas, flies, rodents, and all other household pests by use of ultra-sonic sound waves. It also claims to not affect humans, plants, pets or other electronic devices.

Here's another version of the Pest-Free commercial, and though it aired in 1980 this one here seems older.

This commercial was the basis for a Son of Svengoolie parody called the BugBox - a clip of which you can see in the 300th Episode retrospective.

Ending voiceover by Jim Barton.

This aired on local Chicago TV in May of 1981.
