Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why is the bait in sachets? Do I need to remove the sachets?

A: There has been a recent change in the law on how rodenticides can be sold. They must not be sold loose. The sachets have tiny (impossible to see) perforations that allow rodents to smell and be attracted to the food. The bait is very palatable to rodents and they will happily chew through the sachets to get at the contents

Q: How long does it take to kill the rodents? Is one feed enough?

A: Rodents can be killed with just one feed. After 3-8 days any rodents that have consumed the bait will be controlled. The active ingredient interferes with an enzyme production affecting their ability to clot blood

Q: How would I dispose of any dead rodents?

A: Whilst wearing gloves remove dead rodents and place them in a double bag, put this bag into a secure household refuse bin.

DIRECTION FOR A SAFE HANDLING AND USE:

Tamper resistant bait stations must be:
• Strong enough to prevent entry or destruction by dogs.
• Strong enough to prevent entry or destruction by children under six years of age using hands, feet or objects reasonably expected to be available in the use area (e.g. household objects, toys etc).
• Lockable or sealable so that children and dogs cannot gain access through the opening or mechanisms used to fill the bait compartments.

Consider preventive control measures (plug holes, remove potential food and drinking as far as possible) to improve product intake and reduce the likelihood of reinvasion. Do not use anticoagulant rodenticides as permanent baits (e.g. for prevention of rodent infestation or to detect rodent activity). Using this product should eliminate rodents within 35 days. In case of suspected lack of efficacy by the end of the treatment (i.e. rodent activity is still observed), the user should seek advice from the product supplier or
call a pest control service. Search for and remove dead rodents during treatment, at least as often as baiting stations are inspected. Dispose of dead rodents in accordance with local requirements. In UK, poisoned rodents should be double-bagged using plastic bags and either disposed of in a household waste bin with a secure lid to prevent access of wildlife or pets or collected by a specialist waste contractor or the local authority. Rodents can be disease carriers. Do not touch dead rodents with bare hands, use gloves or use tools such as tongs when disposing them.
