Question 1

How many days does it take to kill rodents? I have been placing a handful for 4 days and every day all the nuggets are gone. Am I just feeding them?

Accepted Answer

I setup one of my wireless Swann cameras and watched for a week as the rats/big field mice? popped out from my crawlspace and emptied the pellets one by one for ~20 min to an hour.  Hoarding them?  Every day, I'd fill the little plastic electric tape cover, every day the'd empty it.  Near as I could see on the camera, there were/are 3 of the suckers.  After a week, I pushed closed the little screen/flap cover of our crawlspace ad set rocks along the things so they couldn't get out of there.  The other side fo the house there is a giant opening under where the fireplace is and I put another container of pellets for a few more days and watched as they once again, emptied and didn't die...   Finally I set 6 traps in a semi-circle and watched as one by one they all succumbed to a thwack on the head.

of course I still have 3.5 pounds of this stuff, so this time I'll set out a 3x1 board, place 8 pellets in a staggered row and nail them to the board so they have to eat them right there.

I'll let you know how that goes, they are getting wary of the traps...

Question 2

I’ve seen mixed reviews on if this gets rid of chipmunks, someone please give me a proper answer

Accepted Answer

This product absolutely works on squirrels & chipmunks. Im fairly certain that majority of the negative reviews claiming it doesn't work at all for any rodents, is solely based on the buyer not fully reading & following directions + researching the target rodent you're using it for. If you plan to use this for chipmunk control, you must use a bait station.  This stuff attracts deer, raccoon, cats, dogs etc....seen them all on my game cams sniffing at the bait station. Also be aware that chipmunks do what's called caching their food, where they bury it in numerous random places.  I learned of this after watching several hours of videos from my game cam where the chipmunk was going into the bait station, coming out with a nugget in its mouth, running out of camera sight & quickly returning for more.  This went on for 6-8 hrs daily. Finally it began burying the bait within camera view,  at which point I started researching & learned this is what they do, especially in winter when food is scarce. I panicked after seeing that it was burying the poison & i immediately went outside & dug up the poison- i know there's more out there but I have no clue where & that greatly concerns me as I have dogs. If you don't see a decrease in chipmunk activity,  its probably because you're giving them too much. I fill one bait station,  it gets depleted in 1-2 days, I then remove it so the chipmunk knows there is no more & hopefully returns to its caches of buried bait & ingests the poison.  Hope that helps.  Wish I could post the videos I have of the caching behavior.

Question 3

Can I just put the whole bag in a crawl space ? Or do I need to open the bag

Accepted Answer

I opened my trap door and threw the bags in as is.  Noticed last year's bags under the house where the varmints tore open the bag and consumed it all.  They will probably do the same thing this year! I always keep a few bags on hand. This product works!
