  • Effective control of large populations when trapping would be impractical.
  • Using weather resistant baits in tamper resistant bait stations provides long term control.
  • Bait stations provides a protected and enclosed place where rodents feel more secure.
  • Rodent can be picky and will not eat spoiled food. Bait stations keep rodenticides fresh and palatable.
  • Bait stations are secured so a child or animal cannot move, shake or open them.
  • May be better accepted by rats allowing them to gnaw on something.
