Tomcat With Bromethalin Bait Chunx Pail, 4 lbs.

The active ingredient in this rodenticide is bromethalin.Unlike first and second generation rodenticides which function as anti-coagulants, bromethalin is a neurotoxin, making it far more effective and faster. First and second generation rodenticides usually require a rat to eat quite a bit of the poison, then you have to wait another 5 to 7 days for the creature to die. Usually more than a week passes before the creature died. This doesn't sound like much, but a week of damage in your garden or in your house can be rather significant. With Bromethalin, one single lethal dose is all that is required to kill the creature. The rat usually dies around 3 days later.Bromethalin, because it is so effective, is also very toxic to humans and pets, so it is far more likely to affect non-targeted creatures too.You will need to wear gloves as it can be absorbed through the skin. Be careful not to inhale small dust particles, although that is unlikely to happen as it comes in blocks. There is no antidote available for Bromethalin poisoning, should someone ingest it, so be very careful if you have kids or pets in the backyard.Unlikely first and second generation rodenticides that are generally less toxic to groundhogs and opossums, bromethalin will kill them. They are not meant to be used that way and it may even be illegal in some areas to kill these creatures using bromethalin, so try not to leave these lying around in your garden in the open. You might end up with more than just dead rats. The same goes for any pets in the area. It is advisable to only use Bromethalin in suitable devices that have a small hole large enough for mouse or rats.Bromethalin is an effective tool for controlling the population of mice and rats in your garden. I really like this product as it is effective, yet affordable too. I find that I use less of this compared to less effective rodenticides. I prefer the blocks compared to the small rice-like granules packets. The granular packets often contain too much bait every per packet. The blocks are much easier to spread and are a smaller portion too. They fit well in mice traps. Using one or two at a time is enough for a particular spot, so they last a long time. There is one thing to note: These are best suited for outdoor or garden use. The reason is that if you use these indoors, the rats are likely to end up dying behind a wall, in the air vent, or in some unknown corner of the house. The smell is not pleasant and can last for a few weeks. If you are looking to handle mice that are inside the house, I would recommend getting an electric mouse trap. That way, they do not end up rotting behind some furniture or wall. This rodenticides are best reserved for outdoor use.

we HAD an outdoor rat infestation, but are now living rat-free!!! ... thanks to this bait and the other measures below!just as claimed, this MOTOMCO rat bait with Bromethalin really works! ... the rats ate this bait and returned to the nests to perish. the following is some things we learned from our lil' rat skirmish;| rat intel |• neighborhood activism: get your neighbors involved, as the problem is very unlikely limited to your property... rats eat dog feces and bird seed and just about anything, but, in our neighborhood, it is the theory that they were feeding (or are still feeding) at a neighbor that does not clean up after their dog and living at another neighbor that does not leave their home interior and has let their garage and yard go to squaller…. thus, our yard has become a traffic route and/or playground between these two locations on our street. but it is a city wide problem, as we have learned via nextdoor website for our city… so, neighbor involvement is a must, as you may eliminate them from living, playing, or feeding on your property, but they will still be local and will likely return. if you do not know your neighbors and do not want to do the door-to-door thing, then join nextdoordotcom for your city and post something like "Unwanted Neighbors - Rats!" ... this is how we learned that it is a pervasive, city-wide problem and we are both receiving and disseminating information via this site… though i appreciate that most of us no longer “need” neighbors in this era, you do NEED your neighbors as allies in this war!• multi-front approach: utilize some additional artillery besides bait in bait boxes, such as Victor traps... the Victor traps are tried and true traps, and the most efficient and cost effective means of eliminating rats... they are easy to set & hold with great sensitivity... and, they work!• bait type matters!: as far as bait for bait boxes, Bromethalin is in these bait chunks and is the ingredient claimed to be the best to poison rats. as for trap bait, we first tried peanut butter with no results on the rats, but it resulted in some very unfortunate collateral damage to other rodents... so, we switched to raw bacon, and, while the other rodents are disinterested, the rats can not resist, and snap!, our rat squatter war is slowly being won! so, if it is outdoors, do not use peanut butter, unless you want to eliminate chipmunks and squirrels, as well (we do not) ... rather, try raw bacon...• fresh bait: we found our best success with traps was to keep them fresh... we changed the bait and reset the traps almost daily, then really began having success!☐ here are links to some good outdoor rat bait boxes and a good value 12-pack of Victor traps:• Compact Rat Bait Station TWIN PACK (Bait Not Included)• Tomcat 0370910 Tier 1 Refillable Rat & Mouse Bait Stationand, traps for the additional front:• Victor Metal Pedal Rat Trap (Pack of 12)lastly, if you want to keep it cheap and simple, then the Victor traps can not be beat, especially in the economical 12 pack.best wishes to your soon rat-free life… :-)Thank you.

This bait has been a game changer in helping us manage a recent mouse problem. I had been noticing signs of mice around our garage and near the chicken coop, and after trying a few other methods with minimal success, I decided to give this a try—and I’m so glad I did.Within just a couple of days of setting out the bait, I started seeing a noticeable drop in activity. It’s clearly effective and has worked exactly as intended. The mice were drawn to it quickly, and unlike traps that require constant resetting, this approach gave us consistent results with less effort.What I also appreciate is that the bait is easy to place strategically in problem areas, and it holds up well without making a mess. I’ve used it both indoors and outdoors (in secure bait stations), and it performed well in both settings.If you’re dealing with stubborn rodents, this is a great product to keep on hand. Highly effective, easy to use, and delivers real results. Definitely recommend!

It seems to be very effective my only problem is they don’t shrivel up like with other baits. They just die so you have to be sure to find them or they stink. That’s an issue in a garage or shed setting with a lot of stuff. I have one in my home garage in the country, one in the shed, and one in my automotive shop (fake rock bait boxes I mean). I only took the one star away due to them dying and stinking but it’s better than them causing literal thousands of dollars in damage chewing wires on vehicles.
