NIPPON Vitax Rat & Mouse Killer Fresh Bait 150g

Product Information

When handling rat poison, be sure to wear gloves at all times and wash your hands afterward. Handling poison probably won’t expose you to enough of it to become critically ill, but it’s better to be safe than sorry. Once the rat ingests your poison it will normally return to its nest where it will die. The length of time and number of feeds this takes is dependent on the potency of your poison. With some, it can be up to 10 days, while other poisons can kill within 24 hours. Naturally, at this price, you get fewer Brodifacoum-based pellets than you do with other options found here (6x 25g), but this is enough to kill 40 rats, so one bag might just suffice. If you have a more serious infestation, you may want to consider going down the professional exterminator road instead anyway.

Rat poison containing Brodifacoum is the strongest that you are allowed to legally buy in the UK, so you can be assured of rat elimination from a single feed. As with the other baits featured here, Ratkil is made up of a formulation that rats find highly appealing.Fish-flavored nuggets attract and keep rats nibbling; suitable for large- and small-scale infestations Note that due to the potency of Tomcat’s bait chunks, they’re only suitable for use in agricultural and rural settings. Making a version of the thing users are seeking is thrifty, (can be) natural, and low waste. Not to mention, it’s very Bob Vila! Though making rat poison may seem like a daunting task, it can actually be an easy feat. One of the simplest ways to do it is to mix one part flour or sugar and one part baking soda and leave it out where rodents frequently scurry. Not only is this option effective for killing rats, it is also safe for use around children and pets. Alternatives to Rat Poison

Some folks may be fundamentally opposed to the use of rat poison; killing rats might disagree with their morals. Also, a scavenger may choose dead rats as an easy meal, which could then result in a poisoned scavenger. For some, the risk isn’t worth the reward. And with so much research on the topic, that stance is understandable.Fast-acting poison requires fewer doses of poison, and some rats with voracious appetites can consume a lethal dose in 1 day. Slow-acting poisons require repeated feeding over a few days before enough toxins build up to kill the rat.
