Rat Baits

[CHARLTON34]

Afternoon all, if you have used various product's what has worked best for you, plenty on the market bearing in mind that it's more difficult to get the stronger ones today. Any feedback from the members what's good or not, looking to source & keep on top of things in the future.
Regards Dave.

Had a few Rats coming around a couple of years ago, the whole area around me had a problem. I used the ones shown and they got rid of them.

I think if you go on some of the pest control sites where they don't allow you to buy without a licence you might see the active ingredients
I also think there use to be a very little question and answer thing that allowed you to buy stronger stuff but the rules may have changed
I had a rat problem here after I moved on next doors cat and found it best to chop and change the products
I did at one stage have success with bicarbonate of soda but the last batch I made was no good at all

Hello NeilA, yes the lady in the shop wouldn't sell me the stronger stuff without a license so not sure how good any of the products available will be strength wise, probably have to feed more together a result.
Thanks for your replies King & Neil, with the winter's being more mild & wet the last couple of year's I didn't want to have a problem so just looking to keep on top of thing's, what the saying your never more than 10ft away from a rat.
Regards Dave.

That is what I use, and every so often I use the ones from Pest Expert for a change

[Diamond Dave]

I've found the ones in like a tea-bag arrangement to be rubbish and not very easy to use in the bait traps.

[Buster121]

That is the pasta one always found that to be waste of time and money

the one I use from Pest Expert are a blue block and are actually stronger than the red ones, but I still prefer to use the road cannot say why as I don't know maybe just a prefererence thing

I used them ones in the mouse bait boxes as never sure if rats and mice will use same ones, so had 2 types

What i was told Buster, the rats carry the blocks back to their nest.
