Tomcat Rat & Mouse Killer Child & Dog Resistant, Disposable Station, 1 Pre-Filled Ready-To-Use Bait Station

I've given 5 stars for this because while this particular station didn't attract and kill our rats the previous Tomcat station I purchased locally did. When we ordered this prefilled station I still had 2 blocks of poison left from my old station and they are not touching that either. Its almost like the rats realized all of the rat community was slowly dying and now won't touch it. I should explain that when I started to use Tomcat bait in early 2024 we had on any given night 10-15 rats and mice that would visit our bird feeders, sometimes even before dark, which is how we knew how many there were. We had tried mint spray, planting herbs (they ate them) and also a device that made a high pitched noise. Started using Tomcat bait and over the course of the Spring and Summer we used 10 blocks of poison and the rodents all disappeared. Fall we saw a couple so ordered these because we were low on poison. I will continue using these because I don't know what else to do and I'm not using something like a glue trap where they take days to die. I would like to add that if you order this product and have pets please be careful where you open the package. Some of the poison was loose in the Amazon package and sprinkled over my driveway when I opened it, which scared me a little as I have dogs and I could have opened the package next to them.

Don’t hesitate! Just get it! Not even 24 hours after placing the traps we found 7 mice dead. They work great! I did add a small amount of chicken feed and shook it to the back of the bait block to make sure the mice couldn’t resist.

These stations are highly effective at attracting and eliminating rats and mice, and they come with the added benefit of being designed with safety in mind.The disposable design is incredibly convenient. Each station is pre-filled with bait and is ready to use straight out of the box. The bait is potent and works quickly, significantly reducing the rodent activity in our home and yard. The enclosed stations are a great feature, as they keep the bait secure and out of reach of children and pets, providing peace of mind.The stations are sturdy and weather-resistant, making them suitable for outdoor use in various conditions. For indoor use, they blend in well and are unobtrusive. I appreciate that they are easy to place and require no additional setup or maintenance beyond occasional checks.Overall, these Tomcat rodent stations are a reliable and safe solution for rodent control. They offer excellent performance and convenience, making them a valuable tool for keeping your space free from unwanted pests. Highly recommended for anyone dealing with a rodent problem!

This station may not work for rats. We have seen rats in our area, however the bait has not been touch, even after a month.

I've had an infestation of mice/rats for some strange reason and the little box or bag of Tomcat didn't handle the problem. So I ordered the bucket size!!!!! That worked!!!! I needed to use more than one or two pieces in the closet or under the furniture. That worked!!!!!

05/20/24: These work well but the packing, or lack thereof, make them a hazard to everyone who handles them from the warehouse all the way to the delivery folks, no matter who delivers. I had been getting them in closed bottom, Amazon paper envelopes which helped somewhat with the hazard, but still a danger. TomCat NEEDS to sell the bait stations sealed in plastic so that there's a chance they will reach the consumer without endangering everyone who handles them along the way. Got mine today shipped in a box with paper padding. Oh yeah, that helped. Delivered by the Post Office and the grains of bait were everywhere in the box and on the paper. Unavoidable and I'll bet if the Post Office knew that they were transporting hazardous bait they would refuse to deal with the deliveries at all. I've yet to get a box delivered by the Post Office that wasn't beat to death. Because of this I have changed my rating to one star.I always immediately place the bait stations I receive into ziploc freezer gallon bags. They're the sturdiest and the zippers don't fail. Not feeling well today so I grabbed some trash bags to put them in until I'm up to dealing with them again. The point is, put them in something to keep them fresh as soon as possible. I usually change mine out before the bait is fully gone because I hear the activity ramp up and I know a bunch will be here if I don't.04/25/24: Just get these! Yes, they really work and I'm so thankful! Because I live rural-adjacent and I'm surrounded by fields to my back, the critters want in the house to do their dirty and have their young. It wasn't too bad until Covid hit and a lot of folks moved away. No more food for the vermin population via their trash and so they keep searching until they reach here. Love this bait so much. I can hear them eating the blocks and then they leave and it gets quiet. Every once in a while I can slightly smell the decay but not bad. This tells me they're carrying some in their mouth elsewhere to share and this is exactly what I want. Buh bye rats and mice!03/05/24: Bought these in Feb. but just placed them a couple of days ago. Had a lot of activity beforehand that my previous bait wasn't handling. Now there's no evidence. I haven't checked the bait yet but the noise has dropped totally which means the vermin in the walls, sub-flooring, attic, are dead for now. I will keep buying.For those looking at these to buy, the price is high but the bait size is huge and it's well configured inside the trap to keep them from stealing it so that have to eat enough to definitely die and then carry any left in their mouths back to the nests. Impressive design. Had to buy these due to WA State shipping laws. Might be able to get something cheaper but also more dangerous locally but I'm disabled so must ship in.WEAR GLOVES when opening product box and placing bait box as they are both covered with bait bits and dust. KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN AND PETS.This review will be updated if necessary.

Turns out I had a rat problem and I didn't even know until 2 weeks ago. This stuff works, just slower than expected since the good stuff is banned now where I live. Took about 10 days and dead rat this morning! Definitely messy bait taking it out of the box.

It took several placements to get it right but, ultimately, the rat is dead. It took maybe 2 weeks total but my place is now rat free. It's as easy to use as unboxing and placing in the right place. A bonus is that two poison stations are included.
