Rodent Activity-Choosing The Right Rodent Bait
The level of rodent activity determines the appropriate rodent bait for the job. Do you have a heavy rodent infestation or light rodent infestation? Is the rodent activity persistant and ongoing ? Do you want a rodent bait for monitoring purposes only?
We will be glad to assist you in rodent bait selection and application for sucess in any rodent control program.

When to use
| |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Diaphacinone
Minumum Purchase : 4 lbs. |
First Generation Anticoagulant Treatment Protocol: |
Rodents must consume multiple feedings of this rodent bait for the anticoagulant to be effective.
Diaphacinone is a lower risk for non-targets (children and pets) because multiple feedings need to take place for the bait to be considered harmful.
Generally more Ditrac or Liqua Tox rodent bait needs to be consumed to reach a toxic dose. |
Multiple feed rodent baits are great for maintaining control once population is restrained. Multiple feed rodent baits are used monitoring any new rodent activity. |
|
Bromadiolone
Minumum Purchase : 16 lbs |
Second Generation Anticoagulant Treatment Protocol: |
This lower toxicity second-generation anticoagulant is ideal in areas where non-target animals are a concern. However, we recommend tamper-resistant bait stations.
Rodents can ingest a toxic dose of Contrac rodent bait in a single feeding.
Rodents may continue to consume the Contrac rodent bait even after ingesting a toxic dose. |
Contrac Bait (blox, pellets or meal ) is beneficial for heavy infestations where there is strong food competion.
Contrac rodent bait is used to control persistant rodent infestations.
Contrac Bait may be used for occasional invaders to ensure they ingest a lethal dose in a single feeding. |
|
Brodifacoum
Minumum Purchase : 16 lbs |
Second Generation Anticoagulant Treatment Protocol: |
Rodents can ingest a lethal dose of Final Blox or Final Pellets in a single feeding.
Rodents may continue to consume Final Rodent Bait even after ingesting a toxic dose. |
Final rodent bait is used for heavy infestations where there is strong food competition.
Final is used to control persistent rodent infestations. |
|
Bromethalin
Minumum Purchase : 4 lbs |
Acute
There is no direct antidote, however there are treatment programs for sub-lethal ingestions. Care should be taken to use tamper-resistant bait staitions. Tier 1 certification require stingent testing for this classification. Tier 1 Stations such as Protecta LP, Protecta Evo Ambush, Protecta Evo Circuit Bait Stations are recommended. |
After one dose, rodents will typically stop feeding on Fastrac bait because the acute active depletes them of their energy which is required to search for or consume food.
Bait quantity of Fastrac may be about one-third that used with anticoagulants, since an animal ingesting a toxic dose does not feed again.
Fastrac has a lower risk of secondary poisonings due to minimal acculmuation in rodent tissues. However, since Fastrac is an acute bait, tamper resistant bait stations are critical.
Fastrac rodent bait kills faster than anticoagulants. |
Fastrac rodent bait is ideal for new rodent infestations.
Fastrac rodent bait knocks the rodent population down to a manageable level. |
|
Vitamin D3
Minumum Purchase : 4 lbs |
Acute
There is no direct antidote, however there are treatment programs for sub-lethal ingestions. Care should be taken to use tamper-resistant bait staitions. Tier 1 certification require stingent testing for this classification. Tier 1 Stations such as Protecta LP, Protecta Evo Ambush, Protecta Evo Circuit Bait Stations are recommended. |
After one dose, rodents will typically stop feeding on Terad3 due ot the rapid onset of symptoms.
Bait quantity of Terad3 is significantly less than that used with anticoagulants, since an animal ingesting a toxic dose does not feed again.
There is a lower risk of secondary poisonings due to the minimal accumulation in rodent tissues. |
Terad may be used in organic production (Terad3 Ag) and (Terad 3) may be used in structural control. |
