Wilco Ground Squirrel Bait
1 of 5 stars
By Linda in California on 06/02/2016

This does not work!! The squirrels have turned their noses to the bait and haven't taken any pellets. It is advertised to be "irresistible" to the squirrels but it's not.

Wilco Ground Squirrl Bait
1 of 5 stars
By Michael in OldTown, Idaho on 06/02/2017

The Ground Squirrls have not eaten any of the Wilco Ground Squirrl Bait and will not even go into the Bate trap. I tried different locations. This was a big waist of money for me.

Wilco Squirrel Bait
1 of 5 stars
By Robert in Redwood City, CA on 12/15/2022

This stuff is a bad joke. It does not even remotely work. I've tried everything to fresh bait multiple times and adding nuts to the mix but nothing works. Please stop selling this useless product.
