    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.

  • Asked by Jonathan from Greensboro
    10/02/2018
    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

    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
    Need help getting rid of rats and mice in my yard
    Hi, We just moved into our new home and there are outdoor animals everywhere. We have rats, ground mice digging up the grass, gofers and raccoon. We would like to start by getting rid of the rats and mice. They are eating into our plastic garbage cans and feeding from there. Can you recommend a product/program we can use to solve this problem? We already set small snap traps for the mice which were tripped by the larger animals and we put out 1 bait box from home depot for the rats which also hasn't been successful (we don't see any of the bait being eaten). We have kids and would like to make sure everything we use is ok to use around kids. thanks
    A
    Fastrac Blox is an excellent bait to use for both the mice and rats. I will say though that if their food source has not been eliminated, they will not go after the bait. That is why the bait that you bought initially is not being touched. I would advise moving the trash cans elsewhere if possible and making sure they are not eating other things in the area. Also, to keep the bait away from the kids, I would advise putting it in a bait box, such the Protecta Rat Bait Station. These boxes lock, and the children would not be able to get the bait out of them.

    Q
    Can rats build resistance to Fastrac All-Weather Blox Rodenticide?
    I bought this poison blocks from you about 1 year ago... did a good job, but now I tried again and looks that they are eating this like cheese... will this have a expiration date? or rats are becoming more resistant?
    A

    Fastrac All-Weather Blox Rodenticide isn't a bait that any rodent should be able to build up a resistance to due to how it affects the rodents body once it consumed it.  It is recommended to rotate baits every 4-6 months if you still need to treat to prevent bait aversion.  It honestly sounds like you have a much higher rodent population than you may realize, or you could have some alpha rodents eating more than is needed for a lethal dose, which means less bait for other rodents to consume, so replenishing has to happen for that reason as well. It is suggested that once you open a bucket of bait it should be used up within 1 year.

    Q
    How long does Fastrac All-Weather Blox Rodenticide take to attract rats or mice?
    Ordered three Protecta EVO Ambush Bait Stations and placed some Fastrac poison in them. I blocked off the hole I found that the rodents were using to get into my walls and attic. My question is how long does it take for the rodents to find the poison? Does it emit a smell to attract them?
    A

    Fastrac All-Weather Blox contain food grade attractants in them. Rodents are attracted to the bait as they are looking for food. Fastrac requires the rodents to consume a lesser amount of bait compared to other products to acquire a lethal dose, and once consumed will kill the rodent within 24-48 hours. Be aware it can take time for rodents to get used to a new food source so may be a few weeks before they start to feed.  Be sure to limit any access to other food sources for best results.

    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.

  • Asked by Keith from Nyc, Ny
    03/02/2022
    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
    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.
