JT Eaton 704-PN Bait Block Anticoagulant Rodenticide, Peanut Butter Flavor, for Mice and Rats (4 lb Pail of 64)

Works on mice, rats, rabbits, squirrels and possums. The possum was unintentional. Even unpopular big black birds like it..

Affordable, easy to use, and effective.We had a rat problem in our chicken coops and barn. They chewed through two of my nice plastic bins to get into our dog's food, which they stole from and peed in. They dug gaps underneath our coops, chewed themselves holes in parts of our wooden barn, and even chewed some of our wiring. Our biggest concern was that we plan to hatch chicks, and rats were underneath the brooder house. Rats will kill chicks sometimes even with a broody hen present, not to mention they'll steal food. We tried snap traps and caught a few, but they don't take care of the nest and they have to be constantly reset. In contrast, we simply set the poison blocks in places that our dog and chickens can't reach, like in the barn sink, on the lower roof, or in the gaps underneath the coops where the rats live. Every time they disappeared we replaced them. After about 2 days we started finding dead rats. We found 1-2 almost every day for about a week before the bait stopped disappearing and dead rats stopped appearing. We made sure our dog's food was moved where the rats were not likely to travel for it until the poison had done its job, due to the comments about Vitamin K being the antidote.All in all, barely over a week to take out what was a messy and expensive rat problem, for $25, is well worth the time and money!!

Works great. They love the peanut butter flavor.

Every so often in our 100 year old pier and beam house in Dallas, we get a critter issue (OK, mice and rats, not cute little critters). We've tried traps (they didn't work). We tried one of those sound machines that aren't supposed to bother humans and dogs (oh, it was loud and we couldn't stand it). Finally, we relented and went the poison route with these JT Eaton bait blocks (peanut butter flavored, but who would know). They come in a big tub. I place them in the closet next to the hot water heater (where we often see rodent droppings). And they disappear quickly. And I replace them. And they disappear quickly again. And I replace them. Part of me wonders how long it takes these to work. Until one day we have a strong dead rodent odor wafting through a part of the house (usually the kitchen). So, they must work. Eventually the bait blocks don't go away from the closet. Eventually the smell goes away. I guess I am happy that they don't die outside so that a pet could find it and get sick. This isn't our first bucket, and probably won't be our last.

The peanut butter flavored block bait, is the flavorite of the rats and squirrals that are living under my trailer. They can not resist. I have tried other types of traps, and the standard pallet poison options from the hardware store - but these are frustratingly ineffective, the rats walk on by; the kill rate is too slow. However the rats gobble up this peanut butter block bait with a fanzy. The draw back is sometimes the criters die in the walls or under the floor, and the smell is horrible for a few days/week...the smell of victory! Highly recommend this bait for a fast and efficent kill rate. Be mindful to prevent other critters from getting access to it - raccons, oposiums, and dogs also love peanut butter.

4lbs wasted simply feeding the rats. I loaded up four bait traps over three weeks, and the bait is all eaten. How can that be? How many rats do I have? I think I will buy something stronger. I haven’t seen one dead rat yet, just crumbs.

Kills rats with common blood thinner. Keep it away from kids and pets. Best to use a poison enclosure. This is the same shape and type as other common small block poisons.

The squirrels kept coming back for more, never killed a single one of them and I still seen the cat outside hunting mice the whole time I used this product. I thought all products like these used basically the same ingredients and boy was I wrong. All this did was feed them and make the problem worse because they wouldn't die and now this product had became a food source for them to keep coming back to. I researched and found out why. The active ingredient is designed for a slow kill over time and multiple feedings and depending on the body weight of the animal could take up to two weeks of feedings, what happens is they eventually overdose on the active ingredient. A small mouse would not even die with a single feeding and would take multiple doses, a bigger squirrel or rat would take even more. The problem I have with this is by this taking so long it's a waste of product. You may have 64 blocks but what does that matter if you have to use up to 8-10 blocks per rat or squirrel and 3 or 4 for a mouse?. The other problem is by this allowing a slow kill over time every day they are alive they are able to continue to cause more damage for up to two weeks and breed with others who may possibly not ingest the poison and who will then be pregnant for the poisoned mouse to leave behind his legacy when he dies via a fresh batch. I got a different product here on Amazon called "just one bite bait blocks" and its active ingredients are totally different and more severe and literally designed just as the name indicates just one single dose and the annimal is as good as dead, the difference in results is astounding, a single dose may take a day or two on bigger ones before they succumb but they are fatally poisoned with one dose. If your looking for a slow kill but a safer ingredient if anything else comes across it but will take multiple feedings and days this is the product for you, if your looking for something more serious to kill it in a single dose but slightly more dangerous if anything accidentally ingested it then check out my other recommendation.
