RatX Rodent Control Pellets, Rat and Mouse Killer, 18 oz

Rats are invading the chicken coop. Tried several natural methods, but they reproduce faster than they can be eliminated. Tried RatX and immediately got results. Found dehydrated dead rats in the yard. The chickens ate some of the pellets, but no harm to them. My outdoor cats have no interest in dried up rats. So safe around them also.

RatX Rodent Control Pellets are clean and easy to use. The rats would not eat them unless I mixed them with a touch of beef tallow or some kind of fat, or mixed in a little peanut butter. Maybe we just have picky rats. It did not seem to harm the effectiveness of the pellets but is not recommended, according to the instructions on the website. Using a small amount of fats/peanut butter does not cause the pellets to swell but they do dissolve in water. Don't add anything that "opens the pores" and you should be fine. Adding a little powdered seasoning like chicken bouillon should work as well. First I put some pellets on a tray with other yummy food to get them used to eating the pellets. Then I made small packets of yummy fat- mixed pellets using sandwich bags and bread ties -(placed a generous portion in a sandwich bag corner then tied with a bread tie and trimmed the excess-making fat triangle treats). Then threw several "treat bags" underneath the house, along with a well placed bucket of water-so the rats did not need to chew into water pipes for a drink of water.... and then sealed the crawlspace closed. It seemed to work and I never smelled any dead rat fumes wafting into the house. This was in December so that may have helped . There was no more rat activity after a few days. The pellets seem a bit pricey but people will stretch their dollars to get rid of rodents! I like that these pellets are safe to handle and will not harm any of your non-rodent pets or wildlife. I did wear gloves when handling the pellets to fill the bags but that was to keep my scent off of them. The pellets are made of non-poisonous ingredients and degrade naturally in soil. They will swell and dissolve if they get wet so do not drop them near wet ground. I read in the YouTube comments that each rat needs to eat around 15 pellets before it is effective-so the pellets need to taste yummy enough for a gorge session. Some people had success without treating the pellets for taste but we did not. Beef tallow, thick Ranch dressing, peanut butter or a dusting of chicken bouillon all worked well for us. Best of luck and success on your ratting adventures.

we are disabled, and we have houses that are boarded up,we have rats trying to come in the house, we buy this all the time, it works better than the professional we used twice 375.00every time they come out.We try everything from Walmart and it works, it really works

Had mice in the back seat of my car and put some of these in a small dish. They loved them and also did not come back again-so I think it worked to get rid of them. I also used them in the furnace around the bottom as they got in there too. Again, they ate some of them and did not return again.

The packaging was secure and easy to use and the product performed exactly as expected. It seems durable enough to last through the treatment, it was easy to set out and was quickly consumed by those hungry rats and the amount included offers great value for the price. I would definitely purchase again.

It’s really hard to properly review this, because of the nature of the product. I can say that the product did entice my horrible little house guests and I am hopeful that they are soon dispatched. However, my biggest issue with poisons is that the time and place of death is not controllable. All of my furry, little food thieves may be dead in their nest or they may have crawled outside, to die. Alternately, I may, one day, find a decaying carcass, behind my washing machine or in a cabinet. It’s impossible for me to know exactly where they are going to die and it could be anywhere. I may never know. With a snap trap and my trusty 2x4, I am absolutely certain that they will not steal anymore food from my pantry. A crushed rat or flat rat(in the event the trap doesn’t kill them) will NOT be stealing anything else from me. I wish I could say for sure that this poison did the job but I cannot.

This item don’t kill the rats it only makes the rat grow more I had to throw it away cause it wasn’t doing anything , I wouldn’t recommend anyone to buy this

As much as I REALLY WANTED this to work, it just didn't. I let my rat problem get too big and broke down and got the traditional rat poison which I REALLY HATE but which works. I guess the theory is good, but in practice it doesn't do so well. I actually like little rodents of all kinds but rats in large numbers are a VERY BAD idea!!! So sorry. Bought all Tom Cat rat poison and poison "feeder" container. No more rats.

Scattered pellets around areas noted rodent feces. Days have gone by, the pellets have gone uneaten. Rodent activity still remains. I was trying not to have to use bait traps, as it's gross to find a rodent smashed in a trap! I can hear rodent activity in my walls %26 under my sink.

Used it for weeks but It didn't work at all the rats were eating it enjoying it but non of them died so it might work might not but for me It didn't work so not recommended I rather use a real poisoned ones slow acting bait than trusting this product no offense but needs to improve this product Thank you.
