Neogen000550 Rodent Bait Station, Black

Does its intended purpose. I’m very nervous using rat poison because I have three dogs but when my husband told me he saw a big rat run into the shed I knew it was time to do something. My dogs never get into the shed but I couldn’t risk that 1% chance if I forget the door open or whatever. So I bought this in case they somehow get in the shed as a safety precaution. It is very secure and you can’t get it open without the keys which have to be turned with a good bit of force. The spikes keep the poison on place so if my dogs get to it they shouldn’t be able to access the poison. Of course never let kids or pets have access to the unit it’s never worth the risk but this has really helped me feel safer about our pest management. And yes the rats have been nibbling the bait and I haven’t seen any more.

Works well

This bait station was easy to use, hint -the keys are taped inside by the way. Customer service was great and answered my question about where the keys are within one day. But… The station is too lightweight. Within a week it was gone from my yard where I placed it so obviously an animal took it or knocked it somewhere and I still can’t find it! If I ordered it again, I will remember to put a heavy rock or something on it I guess.

I have 4 of them just check them regularly

The size was deceiving.

My poor chickens were having food taken from them by rodents. I tried various traps that worked to some extent , but this worked the best. Easy to load fast effective solution to rodent problems. Remember to order the bait

As others have mentioned the keys to open it are not convenient but you can turn the locks with a screwdriver to open it. The big problem is that the bait blocks do not fit. The pegs where you put the blocks are not spaced properly and the blocks are taller than the box. I don’t recommend this product but I also don’t know if any of the other boxes on the market are better.

Looks sturdy and durable, putting it under the house because rats keep running aroun under my bathroom floor.
