How are rats and mice treated?
Pest Busters Sydney use baits to treat for rats and mice.
If young children or pets have access to the external areas or the area under the house, safe baiting methods must be followed. The safe baiting method means that baits need to be placed in lockable bait stations.
Where is rodent bait placed?
- Sub floor
- Roof
- Internally
The most important issue being is the bait in a safe inaccessible area.
What is a lockable bait station?
Lockable bait stations are an effective tool for controlling rats and mice. They are boxes which are used in areas that are accessible to pets or children. Lockable boxes will be suggested for any external baiting in which dogs, cats, wildlife or children can access the areas needed to be baited.
Lockable baits stations are specifically designed to prevent unauthorised access to baits, to stop the bait spilling out, ‘crumbs’ being carried away or baits being pulled out by mice and rats.
What are the benefits of using a bait station?
- Baits are protected from dust & moisture
- Provide a secure place for rats and mice to feed
- Protect children, pets and wildlife away from baits
- Allow for baiting in areas that would have been difficult without boxes (such as externally)
- Prevent baits being spilt
- Easy monitoring as technician can open boxes to examine the amount of feeding
- Tamper Resistant
- Allows safe baiting in public or food preparation areas
- Safe for pets and humans
Can bait stations be used internally?
Yes! Lockable bait stations can be used internally if you are concerned about your child or pets getting into the baits. Internally baits are only placed in safe areas that are inaccessible to children or pets, however in some circumstances a lockable station may be suggested if for example there is an entrance point in a cupboard, pantry or an exposed wall cavity.
