Perfect for prefeeding, our ready to use Ferafeed Strikers contain 18g of Ferafeed 213 non-toxic paste in a biodegradable potato starch bait station attached to a weatherproof card.
Research shows that prefeeding is the key to successful pest control operations. That’s because target animals become familiar with the flavour and delivery method of a non-toxic prefeed before toxic baits are delivered in the same way.
Ferafeed 213 is our most popular prefeed for attracting possums, rodents, and wallabies to traps and bait stations. It’s made with food grade ingredients, including peanut butter and grains, so target animals find it highly palatable.
Use Ferafeed 213 Strikers in one-off or short-term pest control situations where you don’t need permanent bait stations. Follow them up with Feracol Strikers or Feratox strikers. They’re easy to use – just staple them onto trees or suitable posts.
For more options, see our range of possum, rodent, and wallaby control products.
Prefeeding should be carried out before replacing with toxin, once there is evidence that your target animal is interacting with the prefeed.
Site the strikers near areas of animal signs and close to key food or play trees and possible nesting sites. Check the strikers regularly and replace as required.
Staple Strikers into place by affixing directly to trees and fence posts or staple inside permanent bait stations through the area where there is evidence of possum and rat presence.
Strikers strategically placed will minimise access and predation by non-target animals and afford the bait protection from the weather.
To help prevent the Striker tags from breaking, carefully select a suitable surface to staple to and use longer staples in the staple gun. If using in managed forests make sure to check with the Forest Manager on any special requirements for attaching to trees.
Prefeeding significantly increases the success of pest‑control operations because target animals become familiar with the flavour of the bait and the delivery method and will return repeatedly to the same location. This increases the likelihood they will consume toxic baits when you later switch to Feratox Strikers or Feracol Strikers.
Ferafeed Strikers are highly effective for possums, rodents and wallabies. The paste uses food‑grade ingredients, including peanut butter and grains, making it extremely palatable.
Use Ferafeed Strikers when you need one‑off or short‑term pest control, lightweight, disposable bait stations, quick deployment in remote or difficult terrain or prefeeding without installing permanent stations.
Yes. Strikers are dipped in wax, making them weatherproof and protecting them during handling and field use.
Yes. Once animals tamper with the Striker, the potato‑starch Bio Bag begins to break down naturally and fully degrades in the field within a few weeks. Clean up is often unnecessary.
Yes. Each Striker is clearly labelled non‑toxic, ensuring safe and compliant use during prefeeding.
