It is recommended to protect the Rat X application from rain/wet surfaces or conditions. Inspect bait points frequently and replace any baits which become wet and re-site in a dry location.
Rat X is only labeled to control rats and mice. There are no poisons available that are labeled for rabbits.

Rat X is already made with food-based additives that are appealing to rodents so additional additives are not needed and should be avoided. Adding additional materials to the bait can cause the rodents to avoid it altogether, or may deter them from feeding on enough of the product to consume a lethal dose.
It would really depend on how much Rat X the rodent has already consumed. Mice need to consume at least 10-15 grams of bait (1/3 – ½ oz) for a lethal dose. Per the product label, continue to supply fresh bait until you have had at least 48 hours without any takes on the bait.
Rat X will only work on mice and rats, and is safe for other animals since it is non-toxic for them. There is no risk of secondary poisoning. Of course, if you have concerns, it is recommended to contact your vet.

If they’re not going to the Rat X, you might try using traps like the Trapper T-Rex Rat Traps baited with dog or cat food since that’s what they seem to be attracted to. Be sure that there are no other competing food sources in the area. You may also want to take a look at our Rat Control Guide for further tips.

Rat X could potentially kill a rat even if it is moldy but they may not be attracted to it enough to consume a lethal dose if it is not palatable. We recommend offering fresh bait. If the product is moldy, it would be highly recommended to replace it.
Yes, when using Rat X, protect bait points from water. Inspect bait points frequently and replace any baits which become wet and re-site in a dry location.
Rat X is a non-toxic rodent bait that kills rodents without harming any other species. The rats will eat the bait like a food source and Rat X will cause dehydration. Rats have stomach sensors that tells them when they are thirsty, this will only effect rodents that eat the bait as dogs do not have this sensor.
Rat X should not be mixed with any other foods.

Rat X contains food based ingredients that attract the rodents for consumption. When baiting for rodents, you want to limit other food/water sources they are attracted to so that they will consume the bait you place out for them. For more information on treating for rodents, please take a few moments to review our articles on How to Get Rid of Rats and How to Prevent Rodents for a successful eradication program.
No,that is not how Rat X or any other rodenticides work. Rodents must ingest the rodenticide for it to be effective.
If you are not using a rodenticide such as Rat X in a secure rodent bait station, then it is absolutely possible that another non-target animal is consuming the bait. Keep in mind, too, that rats will hoard food, so they make take a lot of loose bait and not consume it all right away. Be sure to follow the label instructions for size and frequency of bait placements, as well as placing bait in stations to protect it from non-target animals like pets, from weathering, and from being translocated easily. You can also make packs of bait and place them directly in burrows, per the label instructions.
Rat X is for all rats not a specific species so will help to eliminate any that you may have. We also have a helpful guide on "How to Get Rid of Rats".
Rat X is not harmful to non-target wildlife.
Rat X should be applied where there are signs of rodent activity, like fresh droppings or near burrows, runways, feeding places and at points of entry around the perimeter of buildings. We would not recommend putting it right out in the open in the garden but instead place in a bait station like the EZ Klean.
