Ratkil Rat Poison (6 x25g) Rat Bait & Mouse Poison Grain

Anyone dealing with a rat infestation, looking for a quick and low cost solution then this is your product. It comes in safety outer packaging which can be securely resealed each time you remove a sachet. Inside are 6 individually pre measured sachets of the deadly ingredients. Using a disposable glove remove one sachet from the pack and place wherever you've found droppings or signs of disturbance. If you know the point of entry you can place the sachet there also or instead, depending on how big the problem is. I have a large garden shed that's my work shop and gym but it also houses all of my outdoor soft furnishings, plastic storage boxes containing seasonal decorations, tumble dryer, wine fridge and fridge freezer, so there's plenty of precious wiring at stake, every time this problem arises. The tell tale signs that rats have been in there, for me, is usually a disturbance to the pet bedding hay I keep in there or to the bag of gift wrap hung above my work bench. On closer inspection I'm guaranteed to find droppings close by. As far as them getting in, they always come up under the floor, close to one of the sides. When I walk round outside I can usually spot where they've been burying underneath, overtime you'll learn to know what to look for in your own environment, in order to catch the infestation early. The first two occasions I used this product I put a sachet down for 7 consecutive nights, until day 8, the sachet was still there in the morning and sat there for over a week, untouched, which gave me the confidence to end treatment. There were never any remnants of any sachet so the rat must have taken each one away with it, probably back to a nest. I was lucky that despite using 7 sachets I didn't discover 7 dead rats. My biggest concern was that they'd curl up to die underneath the shed floor which would have been a costly, very stinky, nightmare. Each time I've had to reach for this product since I've only had to use 2 or 3 sachets before successfully ending treatment. Once other rats see one of their friends dying a pretty horrible death they tend to move on. Spring tends to be the obvious time that I have a problem, then again in the autumn when they come looking for somewhere warm and dry to spend the winter to escape the fields our homes back on to. Unfortunately we have two sets of neighbours close by who really don't help when it comes to this issue. They have lots of waste that doesn't fit in their forever overflowing wheelie bin and rather than order and pay for a second one, they'd rather their waste sit around in black bags stinking and getting torn open, attracting all sorts. The key to minimizing pests is cleanliness, for example don't throw carcases' out on the lawn for 'foxes', dispose of food waste separately in your compost caddy, any feed, bird seed or pet bedding keep it in sealed containers, any items you want to store in shed's, garages and out houses don't do so using cardboard boxes because that's the perfect bedding material for pests! It's worth spending a little money on large, lidded, plastic boxes instead, you'll thank yourself in the long run because they take up less room and you'll know exactly where everything is next time you want it! Most households will experience mice and rat infestations from time to time, regardless of the measures we take but anything we can do to discourage and prevent them, the better it is for everybody. When I first brought these sachets they were £7.99 which I think is reasonable however, they've shot up to £9.99 which feels a little steep. I wish price increases could be done fairly like they used to be, a fair increase is something like 20p at a time not £2?! I like to keep a bag of these somewhere safe so that I've always got some to hand. I much prefer this method to traps, I have used a pest control company in the past but it was super expensive especially when I later found I could be doing the same thing myself for a fraction of the cost. The only thing you really have to be mindful of is pets and children. Whenever I'm using this product I keep my pets out of the back garden and I always let my neighbours either side know I'm going to be using it. And remember to always wash your hands thoroughly after handing. It's convenient that we can source this through Amazon and have it delivered via our prime subscription. I have no idea how much this is to buy in stores but my guess is little less and we're simply, and rightfully so, paying for the convenience. I strongly recommend this product.

This rat poison is well presented, with individually sealed sachets that make it clean and simple to use. I placed several in the loft where I’d noticed activity, and within three days there was no further movement or noise. The sachets remain intact, with no unpleasant odour or residue, and disposal afterward was straightforward. The quantity provided offers good coverage for multiple placements, making it cost-effective as well as efficient. A dependable product that delivers quick, visible results while keeping things tidy and safe to handle.

Very effective. Had to use it for several days but poison has remained untouched for a week now and no signs of mice

A very good quality product and very effective. Used the six sachets and the last one wasn't eaten. So I'm hoping it has done the job. No sign of any more rats yet anyway. Thank you.

Ease of use, you just need to leave the sachet/bait at the designated station and leave it to do the magic. Not easily to cross-contaminate and the sizes can fit most places. Very efficient, rodents die in no time. No smell.

Hmm we used all of this and still the rat kept visiting our garden.my neighbour bought a more expensive one - similar product, and there were no more rats a week later. I appreciate it’s difficult to judge exactly how long it takes to get rid of the rats but think that maybe it was the other brand not mine that did the job.

Very effective and inexpensive

I have used peanut butter, chocolate and some syringe type product I got off Amazon. These didnt work. However the rodents have gone for this RatKil for a few days. That said I'm surprised to still have them scurrying around. Maybe there are more than a few under the skirting boards. Im just hoping it works soon.
