The outdoor trade-off

The problem isn't only pests.

It is everything conventional pest routines ask you to tolerate just to enjoy your own backyard.

01

Pests change the plan.

Patio dinners end early. Campsites become a swatting contest. A quiet hour in the garden stops feeling quiet.

02

Spray becomes the routine.

Sticky skin, strong scent, repeated application, and another bottle to remember every time you head outside.

03

Smoke creates a new problem.

Coils, candles, and torches add flame, fumes, cleanup, and consumables to the place you came to relax.

Meet Slate Signal

Change the signal. Keep the moment.

Slate Signal replaces the messy routine with a compact, variable-frequency ultrasonic device made to stay close wherever the evening takes you.

  • Changing ultrasonic outputA variable-frequency signal instead of a chemical formula.
  • Nothing goes on your skinNo lotion, oily residue, or fragrance from the device.
  • No smoke, flame, or consumable coilSwitch it on without turning your setup into a chemistry kit.
  • Portable by designKeep it close on the patio, at camp, in the garden, or on the move.
Choose your Slate Signal A sound-based outdoor companion—not a replacement for EPA-registered repellent where bite prevention matters.
Why prevention matters

One tick bite can change what dinner means.

Alpha-gal syndrome is a serious allergy that can develop after certain tick bites. Knowing the risk makes a complete prevention routine easier to take seriously.

01

Some tick bites can lead to alpha-gal syndrome.

In the United States, the lone star tick is most often associated with this serious allergy. Not everyone who is bitten develops it.

02

The reaction can appear hours after a meal.

For people with alpha-gal syndrome, symptoms commonly appear 2–6 hours after exposure to mammalian meat, dairy, or another product containing alpha-gal.

Editorial scene of two people approaching urgent medical care
03

Symptoms can range from uncomfortable to life-threatening.

Hives, stomach symptoms, swelling, and breathing difficulty can occur. A severe allergic reaction requires immediate emergency care.

Up to 450,000

people in the United States may be affected by alpha-gal syndrome, according to the CDC. The exact number is unknown because cases are not nationally notifiable.

The takeaway

Build a complete tick-prevention routine.

Use EPA-registered repellent, protective clothing, habitat awareness, and thorough tick checks where tick-borne illness is a concern. Slate Signal can be an additional no-spray device in your outdoor routine, but should not be relied on alone.

The device emits high-frequency sound in a changing pattern. It does not release a topical or airborne repellent.

Spent a week on the Appalachian Trail and clipped this to my pack every day. Usually I pull ticks off my clothes at camp, but this time? Nothing. The rechargeable battery lasted the whole trip. Already ordered a second one.

Bought the 3-pack for my family’s camping gear. We each keep one in our tent vestibule and they run all night without issue. Charging from the portable solar panel is easy. Mosquitoes were noticeably less of a problem around our site compared to the neighbors.

I clip this to my dog’s harness when we hit the greenbelt trails. Haven’t found a single tick on her since we started using it three weeks ago. My only gripe is that I wish the battery indicator was easier to see in bright sunlight.

Gardening used to mean constant tick checks. Now I set this on the stone wall while I work and I can focus on my tomatoes instead of swatting. Love that it’s rechargeable—no more disposable batteries cluttering my junk drawer.

Took the 5-pack on a group hike through the Columbia Gorge. Everyone got one and we all agreed the trail felt more comfortable. One unit seemed to drain faster than the others, but customer service was quick to help. Great for outdoor groups.

I do outdoor yoga sessions in the park and this sits right next to my mat. It’s silent, portable, and keeps the pests away so my clients can actually relax in shavasana. The rechargeable feature is perfect for back-to-back classes.

Works well on our patio during evening dinners. We move it from the outdoor table to the porch rail depending on where we’re sitting. Would give it five stars if the carrying case was included, but the device itself is effective.

Living in this town, tick awareness is everything. I keep one in my car and clip it to my waist when walking the property. It’s become as essential as my sunscreen. The USB-C charging is fast and convenient.

Camped by the lake for a long weekend and the Slate Signal ran the entire time on a single charge. Kept the mosquitoes away from the picnic table. Docking one star because I’d like a slightly stronger clip for my backpack strap.

Use this around the barn and while riding. It sits in my helmet bag or tack box and keeps the gnats down in the stalls. Works great, though I have to remember to charge it every few days with heavy use.

Golfing with this clipped to my bag has made the back nine much more pleasant. The fairways near the woods are usually brutal. It doesn’t create a magic bubble, but the difference is clear. Lost a star because it’s a bit bulky for pocket carry.

FAQ

Questions? We've got you.

Slate Signal is a portable outdoor device that emits a changing ultrasonic signal. It is designed as a chemical-free companion for patios, campsites, gardens, and other outdoor routines.

The device produces a shifting pattern of high-frequency sound rather than dispersing a topical or airborne repellent. Ultrasonic pest devices are not EPA-registered insect repellents, and real-world results can vary.

It is designed to operate above the range most adults hear. Individual hearing ranges differ, so stop using it if you notice an uncomfortable sound.

No lotion, spray, smoke, or fragrance is released by the device, and nothing is applied to your skin.

Use it as directed near your patio chair, garden setup, campsite, day bag, or other outdoor activity. Keep the emitter unobstructed and follow the included product instructions.

No. Do not rely on an ultrasonic device alone where mosquito- or tick-borne disease is a concern. CDC recommends EPA-registered insect repellent, protective clothing, avoiding tick habitat, and checking for ticks after outdoor time.

Some animals hear higher frequencies than people. Keep the device away from pet resting areas and ask your veterinarian before using it around pets that may be sensitive to sound.

Processing takes 1-3 days. Estimated US delivery is 4-7 days after dispatch, and tracking is provided when your order is on its way.
