Rat Bait

An effective way to control rats on your property is through the use of bait, also known as rodenticides. At Rentokil, we have access to a large selection of professional baits suitable for use indoors and out. We combine the use of rat bait with our range of bait stations as part of a customised rat control programme.

Our BPCA certified technicians are trained in the safest and most effective use of second generation anticoagulant rodenticides (SGARs)  that meet the strict requirements of the Campaign for Responsible Rodenticide Use (CRRU) stewardship scheme. As a professional organisation we ensure our front line staff are fully aware of the risks professional products can pose to wildlife and apply this knowledge to reduce any risks to non-target species.

Rat bait is essentially a chemical poison formulated to be highly toxic to rats and mice. It is available in a wide variety of formulations. All of our chemical bait contain Bitrex, this is the harshest taste known to the human tongue. If it is accidentally consumed by humans, the taste will cause you to spit it out immediately.

Our rat baits are installed and distributed in a wide variety of tamper–resistant bait stations. They have been developed and successfully tested in-house to ensure they can offer effective treatment against rodents. Our bait stations have been specifically designed to be tamper resistant, enabling their use in areas where there might be children or pets present. The bait contained inside is only accessible to rats and will cause no harm to others.
