Rodent Toxins
Control rats and mice more effectively and humanely with our range of practical and innovative rodent toxins.
A more environmentally friendly approach to rodent control, our rodent toxins provide a much lower risk of secondary poisoning for non-target species.
Whether your rodent problem is around the house or sheds, farm, or on a larger-scale in the bush, we have a toxin to suit the situation.
For a double hit, we have toxins that control both possums and rats at the same time – making pest control more cost-effective.
How to use our rodent toxins
Our rodent toxins come in pellet, paste, and block form and are designed to be used in
rodent bait stations.
Depending on the toxin, you can use:
Fixed bait stations – heavy-duty plastic stations to place pellets or paste in
Lockable, portable bait stations – heavy-duty plastic stations to place blocks or paste in
Bio Bag bait stations – biodegradable bags to place paste in, which are then stapled onto trees or posts
Striker potato starch bait stations – biodegradable bait stations already filled with paste, which are then stapled onto trees or posts
Use a lure or prefeed to encourage rats and mice to bait stations and toxic-bait sites.
Refer to each product’s best practice document for more information on how to use the rodent toxin.
Start by monitoring. Chew cards and tracking tunnels show which pests are present from their bite marks or footprints, so you don’t spend time and money controlling the wrong pest.
Traps are toxin-free and suit smaller areas, or places where pets and children are around. Toxins in bait stations cover larger areas more efficiently. Many programmes get the best results by using both.
Some toxins require a Controlled Substance Licence (CSL), and these are clearly marked on the product page. We must sight and record your licence before sale. Traps, lures, monitoring tools and many baits don’t need one.
Pests tend to travel along edges, so place them where you’ve seen signs of activity, such as fence lines, bush edges, tracks, streams and sheltered spots near food sources. Keep them out of reach of children, pets and livestock.
Prefeeding means putting out non-toxic bait before introducing toxin. It gets pests used to the taste and location, so they keep coming back, and that makes your control much more effective.
Check them regularly. Remove catches promptly, refresh bait and lures, and look for damage or debris that could stop them working.
When used correctly, following the label and Safety Data Sheet, our products are designed to keep the risk to native species and non-target animals low. Always use toxins in bait stations, display warning signs where required, and keep pets and livestock away from treated areas.
