Professional
Rat Control Procedures:
The proper procedures for rodent control are sometimes a difficult chore
for a homeowner. The information below is provided to help the
inexperienced make the necessary decisions for a successful rodent control
program. All of the rodent control products you will need are provided
throughout these pages.
-
If
your rat infestation is only in the yard and there are no pets or
children on the premises, you only need to purchase the CONTRAC
BLOX RAT and MOUSE BAIT. Place the bait blocks in the rat
holes or any noticeable paths in the yard. Regular movements
(foraging) of rats will leave paths in the grass. Contrac Blox will
kill rats and kill rats fast. It is a single-feed bait.
-
When
children or pets are present, tamper resistant rodent stations are
needed. You need to purchase the Protecta LP(Low
Profile)
Rat Stations
or the
regular
Protecta
Rat Stations.
-
We
recommend that you choose the larger Protecta
Rat Stations
if a combination rat trapping & rat baiting program is necessary.
-
The
Big
Snap-E Rat Traps
are used inside the Protecta Rat Stations
when children or pets are present or will be present. If you suspect a
rat problem is within your walls or indoors, baiting is not an option.
Baiting inside for large animals such as rats will only increase your
problem. Baiting will quickly solve the rat infestation but will
create 3 more problems. #1: Odor from the dead animals #2: Maggots and
thousands of flies and #3: The dead rats are rarely located. The odor
from the dead rats will linger for several weeks.
-
Indoor
treatments should be done with baited traps or glue boards. We
recommend the Big
Snap-E Rat Traps
because they are easier, sanitary and safer to handle. The
pre-formed holes in the rat trap base allow for surface mounting if it
s needed. Your fingers never touch the dead rodent. The Big
Snap-E Rat Traps
are
easy to clean and can be reused for years. They are simple, safe, and
sanitary. They will kill rats every time the trap is sprung. No rats
will be able to steal the bait.
-
After
setting the baited traps indoors you will also need to place some
traps outside in the regular Protecta (Tamper Resistant) Rat Stations.
The Protecta
Rat Station
keeps the Big
Snap-E Rat Traps
out of harms way to little children or pets. This larger station can
be used with the Big
Snap-E Rat Traps and
follow-up maintenance rat baiting or trapping.
-
All points of entry should be sealed the same time you start your
rodent control program. Why? A rat will not change his habits easily,
especially if he already has a safe path to food and water. Sealing
his points of entry will disrupt his normal routine and cause him to
wonder off the usual path. You will then start catching the rats. If
you want the right rodent control products to kill rats, we have all
the supplies you will need to succeed. Stuf-fit
Access Control copper
mesh is the very best for most access control sealing jobs. Some holes
may require concrete.
If you follow the procedures
that apply to your particular kind of infestation you WILL solve
your problem.

NOTE:
The dog food in the bowl was removed while baiting for the
Rodents.
You don't want competition for the bait.
In this kitchen a Rat was
visiting the dog food each night.
A Protecta Station with the Big Snap-E Rat Trap was put out.
Look at the tail sticking out of the Protecta Station.
This is proof that the combination of Protecta Stations, Big
Snap-E Rat Traps & The Critter Ridders is down right
DEADLY for a rodent of any kind.

Hug-A-Nut Squirrel Paste Bait 8 oz.
Code: NWS002
FREE
SHIPPING
Price: $14.95
Shipping Weight: 1.50 lbs
The
Hug-A-Nut Paste Bait used in the Protecta Station & the
Rodent Rock Station is by far the very best Rat & Chipmunk
paste bait ever made. It was originally used & marketed for
squirrels only. However, after one try, we found out that Rats
& Chipmunks will follow this sweet smelling bait faster than
anything we have ever used. We still use it for squirrels and we
always will but when baiting for squirrels we also use pecans as a
visual sighting aid and the Hug-A-Nut Paste Bait as the sweet smelling
attractant plus the paste bait helps hold the pecans in place on the
trip pan in the trap.
The
deadly kill pictured below using the Hug-A-Nut Paste Bait, Snap-E
Rat Traps and the Rodent Rock Cafe or Protecta Station is deadly for
any rodent including chipmunks.

Protecta
Landscape Rat Rock Station (Chipmunks)
When
you want to put out a BAIT
STATION for a rat,
mouse or chipmunk but you are
afraid it will change the esthetics of your yard or garden, use a
realistic looking rock (Protecta Landscape Rodent Station) . No
one will know it's a bait station!
Protecta
Landscape, Bell's newest tamper-resistant bait station, is designed to
easily blend with outdoor settings. Available in two realistic 'rock'
colors, Sandstone and Granite, Protecta Landscape features a naturally
textured surface for a realistic appearance.
Protecta
Landscape locks when closed and opens with the standard Bell 3-prong
key. The built-in service record card holder, one-piece liner, and its
side-opening design make servicing easy.
Four
vertical bait-securing rods holds Rodent Bait Blocks securely inside the
station. As with Regular Protecta Rat Stations, Protecta Landscape also
accommodates our Snap-E-Rat Trap for chipmunks or
rats.
(click to enlarge)
The
Big Snap-E Rat Trap is the best rat trap for lethal
rat trapping and it fits this rat station perfectly. The Big
Snap-E Rat Trap or Rodent Bait Blocks and the Protecta Landscape are
the perfect combination for a chipmunk or rat control program. The
Landscape rock creates their kind of visual habitat to lure them inside.
Once inside, the rest is history. Here is an example of what it will do
to a chipmunk using our Hug-A-Nut Paste Bait & the Snap-E-Rat Trap
inside this new Rock looking station.

Professional Mouse
Control Procedures
- Mice in the Attic
There are two procedures most often used to eliminate mice. Baiting
and Lethal Trapping. Live trapping is not desired by most
homeowners because of the expense and the delayed time at gaining
complete control. If your Mouse infestation is only in the Attic
then Baiting with Contract
Pelleted Bait is the most often applied solution. These throw
packs can be tossed in extreme corners of the attic were you can't
walk. However, don't over do it with the baiting, you don't want an abundance
of unused mouse pellets lying all over your attic. Grain Beetles or
Meal Moths could infest any unused bait.
- Mice in the Kitchen
Again, there are two procedures most often used in the Kitchen.
Baiting and Lethal Trapping. Once again, live trapping
is still not the desired solution for quick control. However, you
will have a choice below for purchasing the tools necessary for live
trapping. The images below shows proper placement of Bait
stations around the Kitchen.
|
| Mouse Baiting
Small,
triangular shaped PROTECTA RTU holds 1.5 oz. Contrac BLOX mouse bait. With angled entry holes, it fits flush against a wall or in a
corner where mice travel. The interior baffles lead mice to the bait.
Compact PROTECTA RTU measures 5 1/4" (l) x 1 1/4" (h) x 3
3/4" (w). It fits in tight baiting places under pallets, in cupboards
or behind appliances. This tamper-resistant bait station automatically
locks when closed, keeping bait away from intruders.. It locks when closed
and unlocks with the PROTECTA 2-prong key. Mouse control products like the
Protecta mouse station RTU will kill mice fast.
