    Q
    Rat/Mouse Control
    I live in a 1950s ranch in Atlanta, GA. In my crawlspace it looks like there may be some rodent activity. I have recently heard them at night gnawing on things and scratching under the floors. What is my best method to get rid of these? Should I use bait stations and traps or just the bait stations? I want to avoid having a house that stinks due to dead rodents as well.
    A

    We recommend using bait inside bait stations outside the home and using traps in areas directly under the house or in areas where you have seen the rodents traveling. Baiting outside the home with the single feed anticoagulant rodenticide Fastrac in the Protecta Rat Bait Stations is a great combination. Fastrac has a quick kill knockdown time of 12-48 hours after feeding. A great trap to use is the Trapper T -Rex Trap.

    Q
    Approximately how long should you use a particular rodent bait before switching to another?
    Rodents immune systems, over a period of time, gradually become resistant to rodent bait. Currently using Hawk bait with bromadiolone (for the past 6 years). What would be the best chemical types of bait to switch to?
    A

    Rodent baits should be rotated every 4-6 months to prevent resistance.  Fastrac or Ditrac would be a good option to change to.

    Q
    Is Fastrac All-Weather Blox the strongest rat poison?
    A

    Fastrac All-Weather Blox is one of our most popular rodent baits for outdoor use. Fastrac Blox offers a lethal dose in a single feeding, with the first dead rodents appearing in one or two days after bait consumption. Fastrac must be used in a tamper resistant bait station outdoors to avoid accidental ingestion by non-target animals or children.

    Q
    I have voles in my garden and lawn. Will Fastrac Blox work on them?
    I also have been told that Rodex or DCon has a product that is effective. I have quite a few tunnels so need help immediately.
    A
    Voles have been removed from the labels of rodenticides by direction of the EPA. So while Fastrac will kill voles we cannot recommend you use the product for vole control. The only product that is recommended for vole control now is the old fashioned wooden mouse trap with the extended pedal. The trap can be placed directly in the run of the voles and really doesn't even need to be baited to capture the vole.

  • Asked by Edward from Tucson
    09/10/2016
    Q
    Is the Fastrac Blox effective on pack rats?
    A

    You should place the Fastrac Blox inside of tamper resistant stations to secure the blox so that the rats can not carry them away to unsecured locations. Be sure to place plenty of stations out as this type of rat can be territorial and will stop other rats from visiting certain stations.

    Q
    Which block bait kills mice the fastest?
    A

    Fastrac Blox is the fastest working rodenticide that we carry. It kills rodents in about 12-48 hours. It is a single feed bait and is considered the top choice for rodent infestation cleanouts. Many folks choose Fastrac Blox because it is one of the few that can still be purchased in the smaller 4 lb pail.

    Q
    If Fastrac All-Weather Blox are starting mold after several weeks in the bait stations, are rodents still attracted to the bait or should the bait blox be replaced?
    A

    It is recommended to replace any moldy or soggy bait blox in tamper resistant bait stations as the bait matrix is no longer palatable to rodents. It is suggested to replace uneaten or remaining rodent bait such as Fastrac All-Weather Blox Rodenticide atleast once a month to ensure fresh bait is being offered consistently.

    Q
    How are Fastrac All-Weather Blox Rodenticide better than rodent baits containing the same active ingredient that are available at a Big Box Store?
    I see the same active ingredient - at the same %. Why do you advise buying 4 pounds of these and have 3/4 of them go bad because I can't use them fast enough?
    A

    Fastrac All-Weather Blox is a professional grade rodenticide and can be more effective than consumer brand due to the inert ingredients/attractants they contain.  Due to EPA restrictions it can only be sold in the 4lb pail or it is also in the T1 prebaited stations that contain only 1 block. 

    Once the pail is opened, the rodent bait should be used within 1 year. Unopened pails of rodent bait have a shelf life of 2-3 years if stored in a cool dry environment and out of extreme temperatures.

    Q
    Does Fastrac All-Weather Blox Rodenticide cause dehydration in rodents after feeding?
    I am worried about a additional damage Ike jawing of wires if they get dehydrated.
    A

    No, the Fastrac All-Weather Blox Rodenticide does not cause dehydration in rodents. The active ingredient bromethalin poisons the central nervous system, causing the rodent to stop feeding after ingesting the poison, so more rodents can be controlled with less bait.
