    Ground squirrels

    By G. on 04/21/2015

    Verified Purchase

    I Placed the squirrel bait into the "Squirrel Bait Station" as directed and the squirrels have done a great job of ignoring it for the past two weeks. In the meantime, I have squirrels running all over the place.

    Stations and bait

    By Cameron on 06/06/2017

    This whole system of station and bait pellets-this is a mess. They are both expensive and not easy to use-trying 2 get the pellets in without spilling is a joke, and at around $60 bucks a pop-one of the stations got carried away, we r on 3 acres and we got 4 stations and the pellet bait-which calls for pounds being poured into the station-seriously!!! Don't care how long it takes, will find another brand or way!

    NOT Child or Pet Safe!

    By Bobbie on 10/10/2016

    I wish I could rate this item as a negative 5 because it is NOT child or pet safe. The pellets can be dragged out by an exiting squirrel, where a child or pet could eat them. I don't know why, but I thought the whole top came off so one could secure Just One Bite cubes to metal rods. That's a lot safer. Also, it was nearly impossible to get the screw cap off. You're supposed to squeeze the sides of the cap at the location of the arrows. That's supposed to cause the security tabs to expand outward so they will pass the security tab on the rim. Squeezing does NOTHING. I called Wilco twice, asking for help. Both times, I was told to squeeze the lid at the arrows. I explained (what I described above). They didn't have a solution except to "squeeze really HARD". I used a screwdriver to press "really HARD" on one tab. Now the lid is not secure.

    another person who finds that it did not work!

    By Ned on 07/24/2020

    I was careful to not touch the bait station with bare hands. The same for the bait. It has been about a month now and one squirrel went over to check it out. As far as I can tell he never consumed anything from the box. I still have a full container and plenty of squirrels! I also added a good amount of peanuts and still nothing! WASTE OF MONEY!

    Didnt work for me

    By Matt on 10/21/2022

    Unfortunatly my squirrells may be too fat and well fed off my walnut tree to maybe fit in this bait station. Never touched the bait. I had to bait near there burrow openings which they ate same day. I would say if you have some hungry anorexic squirrels this will work great
