My house is surrounded by woods, water, and corn fields. I've been using this product for years and monitor the bait traps around the house quarterly. Have never had a mouse / rat in house but have found them in the yard (dead) on trying to make their way back to the woods or corn fields.

I don't have feed stacked in barn or any other type of draw for the record. I do have a pack rat problem in the engine compartment of my 85 lease truck. I have placed this product inside the nest 4 times and each time it has been completely consumed and yet I still have a rat problem. Again I have no desirable food laying around for consumption so I would believe that their is not a large population of rats in the area. So the thought that these are just new rats is ridiculous. This morning I opened the hood to inspect for the nest that he/she keeps building regularly on driver inner fender and to my surprise you guessed it there was this rate once more. I placed 2 of those little cubes inside the nest and went about my day. I just checked at 6pm and found 1 cube eaten completely and the second cube had about 25% missing. The problem is not them consuming the product heck they love it. The problem is the crappie just won't kill the critters. I'm sure I must be at fault some how or maybe I just have super rats. Bottom line don't waste money on product unless you want to faten the critters up. Buy a live trap then just shoot with .22 much more satisfying after you have spent 12hrs re wiring your electric system twice. Also I have never written a review before so hope this was not long but facts are facts.
