Its Control, Not Total Elimination.
Okay, I see one star to 5 stars. I am not a company spokesman but I can tell you few thing about rats. Number one they are smart, much smarter than you think. I live in the city with restaurants not far from my home and surrounded by neighbors with dogs and cats, rats love to eat their food too. The best poisons are long gone; the government forced them off the market. This is the same bait used by pest control companies. The EPA ban all other poisons several years ago. What you should know is rats are territorial, Once you have killed out one colony another will soon move in if there is a food source. The best method of removing rats is to get rid of their food source. If that is not possible then you need to poison them. Traps don't work. Why? When one rat is caught the other will avoid the traps. Also, you need to make sure it is rats or mice that are eating your bait. My bait was disappearing every night. I set up my game camera only to find possums and raccoons raiding my bait stations. I had to come up with something different. I used a 4 foot long 3.5 inch PVC pipe, blocked off the end to a point that a raccoon or possum could not get into my station. I secured the pipe so that it could not move. I only bait at night. Generally, rats are nautical, they move and feed at night. After I set this station up I started to find dead rats. The one thing about using this poison is that the rats don't usually avoid it but they wander off and die. The other rats are not suspicious of the bait. Mice and rats can reproduce every 90 days and have 8 litters every year. The mice/rat gestational period is only 21 days. You'll never ever get rid of them completely. The trick is to control the population. There is no one who hates rats more than me. I have learned how to keep them under control, but we'll never get 100% rid of them. The best way to control is to eliminate their food source and your neighbors should be doing the same. UPDATE: after only three days the rodent damage stopped, I am not seeing rodents on my camera. I will continue to keep the bait out but this has worked 100%. As long as your neighbors keep feeding their pets outside rodent will keep coming. Control the problem. Your neighbors are not going to change their ways, but you can keep the rodent at bay by baiting them.
