Rat Bait Stations: How Do They Work
Rats can be a nuisance for homeowners, business owners, and farmers. Not only do rats carry disease, but they are also capable of causing extensive property damage. To effectively deal with rats, many people turn to rat bait stations. But what exactly are these stations? And how do they work? Let’s take a closer look at these questions.Â
Rat bait stations have long been a popular choice for homeowners, business owners, and farmers across Daly City, San Jose CA, Los Gatos, foster city, and Santa Clara when dealing with rat infestations. These bait stations are precisely-designed devices that securely contain rodenticides within them to perform two essential functions: they protect children and non-target animals from touching the poison while simultaneously allowing rats access to it.Â

What Are Rat Bait Stations?Â
Rat bait stations are traps that hold rat poison in a secure container placed strategically around your home or business. The containers make it difficult for children and pets to access the poison, so rats can be removed from your property without endangering anyone else. The poison contained in the station is usually a slow-acting anticoagulant that takes several days for rats to die after eating it, so there is no need for you to come in contact with them.Â
How Do They Work?Â
The rat bait station works by enticing rats with food inside the box. Rats will enter the box through an opening to food, and once inside, they will find more food along with the poison pellets. As they eat the food and pellets, their health slowly deteriorates until eventually, they die off from being poisoned. The covered design of these boxes keeps other animals such as cats, dogs, birds, and other wildlife from eating the bait and poisoning themselves instead of killing off rats.
