Tips For Use

Restraints:

  • Do not place baits in the open unless in bait stations.
  • Do not graze or feed livestock on treated areas whilst bait is present.
  • Do not place baits in any position accessible to children, livestock, or domestic pets.

General Instructions: 

  • Do not apply directly on or near exposed food or food utensils, food preparation areas, livestock feed or water, food storage areas, or onto packaging materials or in areas where such packaging is stored.
  • Do not feed the bait to wild or domestic birds.

Baiting Strategies

  • All situations. Eliminate, as far as practicable, all alternative food sources.
  • If baits are eaten quickly, increase the number of baits.
  • Baiting for at least 2 weeks is necessary to reduce mouse or rat numbers but continue observation and bait replenishment until no more baits are taken.
  • Remove and destroy baits not taken after the rodent control program.

Non-crop situations. 

  • Bait the infested areas.
  • Place baits undercover.
  • Inspect baits daily and replace eaten baits.
  • Cover baits if necessary so that only rats and mice can access them.
  • Caution is required in the use of this product in and near piggeries.
  • Do not allow to contaminate pig food.

In crop situations. 

  • Baiting in crop situations should be part of a comprehensive rodent control strategy.
  • This includes encouragement of natural predators (owls), annual field clean up, weed control, clearance of adjacent scrubland, and strategically timed baiting.
  • Obtain and practice crop management and rodent control strategies recommended by the appropriate local advisory bodies.

Crop Baiting Strategies (general).

  • Locate bait stations around crop perimeters (particularly between the crop and grassy or bushy habitats), near obvious rat runs, and/or close to known rat hiding spots such as stumps, rocks, logs or burrows.
  • Bait stations must be put down several days before the start of the control program to give rats time to become acquainted with the station.
  • During the first week, offer free feed to attract the rats.
  • The bait material must be placed in a bait station where it is not in direct contact with the ground and is not accessible to birds and other wildlife.
  • Bait should be checked and replenished every 3 days until no more baits are taken.

Preparation of Bait Stations.

All bait stations must retain bait so that it does not spill onto the ground, and stations must cover the bait to prevent bird access. Any of the following methods may be used to construct bait stations. Baits must not come into contact with the ground or water.

  • Use a car tyre with a sheet of corrugated iron covering the top and wired to the tyre on each side. Wire the corrugated iron through a ridge to ensure that rain water cannot enter and wet the bait. Place the bait in the bottom of the tyre and lay the tyre flat with the iron on top. Fix the tyre to the ground with wire and pegs.
  • Use a length of PVC plumbing pipe with a screw-topped “T”-piece in the centre. Anchor the pipe to the ground at both ends and insert bait through the screw-topped “T”-piece. Replace the cover after adding bait.
  • Place bait in a dish. Cut a hole in the centre of the lid of a 4-litre ice-cream container just sufficient in size to accept the body of the dish. Cut a hole in two sides of the ice cream container to allow rodent access to the bait. Place the dish in a depression in the ground so that the ground is separated from the lip of the dish by the ice cream container lid. Cover this with the upturned container and fasten it to the ground with wire.

Precaution:

  • It should not be used in areas accessible to children.

Protection of Livestock, Wildlife, Fish, Crustaceans and Environment:

  • Place baits or tracking powder in locations inaccessible to other animals and birds.
  • This product is hazardous to pigs, cats and dogs.
  • Do not contaminate ponds, waterways or drains with the chemical, bait, refuse from the bait stations, or used containers. 

STORAGE:

  • Store in the tightly closed, original container in a dry, well-ventilated area, as cool as possible out of direct sunlight.

Safety Directions:

  • Poisonous if swallowed. 
  • Avoid contact with eyes and skin. 
  • Do not inhale dust. 
  • Do not touch the bait. 
  • Use a scoop or measure. 
  • If on the skin, and after each baiting, wash thoroughly with soap and water. 
  • When using the product and preparing the product for use, wear elbow-length PVC gloves. 
  • After use and before eating, drinking or smoking, wash hands, arms and face thoroughly with soap and water. 
  • After each day’s use, wash your gloves.

  • If poisoning occurs, contact a doctor or Poisons Information Centre. Phone 131126. 
  • Vitamin K1 (phytomenadione) is antidotal.
  • Additional information is listed in the Safety Data Sheet.
