Victor Rat Poisoning for Inside & Outdoor Use - Kills Rats, Mice, Meadow Voles | Mouse Poisoning for Indoor & Outside Areas, Ready-to-Use, Yellow, M925, 4 lbs

First, let me solve a mystery as to why you have rodents: you have pet birds, don’t you? These rodents smell bird seed. And if you are ALSO feeding birds outside like my dad did, you are luring rodents into your yard where they are closer to smelling the bird seed inside.To prevent this before it happens (I know…”Too late!”…but this is also part of the solution), you need to feed your birds throughout the day, then remove all spent bird seed from the cage, floor and bowls before you go to bed. This includes water, because your house is not a rodent motel. Birds don’t need to eat at night; this is when they sleep. But this is also when rodents play and eat. Hold on to one of the seed containers or peanut butter containers and pour the spent seeds in the container so the rodents don’t smell it. Don’t offer them alternatives, so lock up your human food, too. Keep all dry foods in airtight containers. Keep your bread in the microwave or toaster oven so they cannot access it.So, I tried everything to get rid of rodents. I left large rat traps out, with beef jerky in them, but I woke up to a released trap and rat leg stuck inside. I did manage to kill a rat or mouse here and there, but from what I read, they are smart. They send out the stupidest rat and watch for results (that would probably be me if I was a rat…I gladly taste-tested cantaloupe for Dad, when he wanted to make sure it was still fit for the dog). The rat trap was actually my first effort, so besides a neurodivergent rat limping around with a missing leg, the rat traps have been sitting opened for months.I had leftover CBD oil with THC and put that on bread. I also had leftover THC skittles. They ate those first; and it was evident who ate them, because they would stumble around during the day in search for more food…or drugs. They walked like my dog walked, the first time I put booties on his feet…and occasionally I’d hear one drop to the floor or in a box. It made them wonky, but didn’t kill them.Then I heard vitamin D kills rodents, so I used my vitamin D pills on bread and left this out for them. Vitamin D doesn’t work.I put food in a 20” high vase, with bowed out sides. Once they drop in, they can’t get out! Did you know rats can jump higher than 20”? I know that leaving food in the case wasn’t just my imagination, just because the vase was empty, because they left evidence of being inside the vase.I tried spraying everything down with minty mouthwash (with real mint), and that worked a bit, but they would just move somewhere else. Then there would be a sticky film of mouthwash on everything.Word was getting around the rodent community that free food was available every night, sometimes they can get high and sometimes they get a healthy dose of vitamin D.So since vitamin D didn’t work, I imaging I had quite a few very healthy rodents gain a supplement of vitamin D they never get through the day.I didn’t learn my lesson. I bought vitamin D rat poison, and they didn’t touch it. Why would I buy more if it didn’t work in the first place? I assumed I wasn’t making it right, or using enough vitamin D.I heard that cats were a deterrent for rodents, so I taught my parrot to meow like a cat. He does a great job, but I’m not sure if that helped.Then I found this stuff. I figured there was no way they would all eat this stuff! They’d send out another neurodivergent member, watch him get sick and refuse to eat it.But this doesn’t kill them immediately. So when a rodent does get sick and die, they don’t associate it with the pellets.Yes, it may stink for about a week (the rat remains…not the pellets), but it does work. We went from hearing footsteps and fighting in the walls and ceiling to peaceful quiet sleep…aside from the occasional meowing from the bird. I have ten pellets sitting out, and they haven’t been touched.I’m not sure what the bad reviews are about; perhaps exterminators who don’t want to lose business? Maybe they only put them out one night? But this is the first item that consistently works.I highly recommend.

I’m going to say after reading the reviews I had mixed feeling, but bought it because it’s affordable and what did I have to lose. It shipped and I had it the next day. I immediately started putting it in hot spots. I got it on June 1, and today is June the 6th. I don't want this to be too long. I started with traps, then sticky traps, I was getting them but they were still multiplying. This went on, and then I found a nest in my entertainment center with babies. Gross!! They ate through two storage containers to get to the dog food. So I started putting that in a different place. And as it went on they ate a hole in my wall from my garage to inside my house. I stopped allowing any one to come over. I can’t afford an exterminator, and I was getting worn down. I’m trying to deal with this issue. It’s disgusting, GROSS, and embarrassing. Not to mention what it does to your sanity. They started getting into my pantry. I moved all my pantry, dry goods to a safe place. The more I took away the more out in the open they became. I took away my dogs bowls after I fed them so they couldn’t get any of the food in there. They have destroyed my house. I have a hunting dog, and two other dogs but the hunting dog has been going crazy. (I feel the same way) So after so many, many, many traps, and sticky traps I made the choice to use this stuff while my kids aren't happy but I'm the one who deals with them when they're caught (they have a few times). So I started using it last Thursday, and yesterday it was quiet, not hearing them chasing each other and all the noise on our ceilings that are drop ceilings. I mentioned it to my kids but I didn't want to jinx myself as well. One of my son's said he had seen one but it appeared to be a little slower. I immediately put the bait out that day in the hot spots. I left the bag just open for them to eat as well put up away from my kids and dogs. One of the hot spots had all the bait gone the next day and I refilled it, one on a shelf had none gone, but I put it on the shelves as well and that was gone. I had put some behind my refrigerator in the garage that was gone. I proceeded to put it around my garage. My daughter and I left for a little bit yesterday while my hunting dog was zonednin with his head under her bed just looking. We get home, and she runs out and tells me there is one on her floor and it has slobber all over it. He didn't get it, the poison did he just thought he finished it. Today I'm in the living room watching TV with two of my dogs and one walks out from underneath my entertainment center. It's not stable you can tell something's going on. It returned under the entertainment center where it looked like a cartoon and it was just falling over dying. I was going to buy a different brand because I was thinking this wasn't going to work. I'll be saving that money and fingers crossed this takes care of them. I'll continue to leave it out because I was told new ones would just come in. This has been hell, and all I'm going to say is THIS STUFF DOES WORK AND WITHIN A WEEK!!! I witnessed it with my own eyes. I know that it might get bad with the smell over the next week or so, but I'll find them and if I can't I'll take that with my sanity back any day. Believe me or not, but to write a review for me it has to be the truth. It is either a great or bad review for me to take my time out to do it. Again IT WORKS!!! And if I witness it again I'll submit a video.
