Handy rodent control tips

• Eliminate as far as practical all alternative food sources.
• Keep food stored in sealed containers. 
• Consider using gloves when setting the trap to avoid the rodent detecting human scent.
• Move the traps to a new location after 48 hours if rats are still present.
• Bait with Peanut Butter to attract the rodent, or use cheese if no peanut butter is available. For extra results, use Ratsak Attract paste.  
• Repair holes, cracks and cervices that may encourage rats to enter the building. Or use Ratsak Repel solutions to prevent new rodents.

* If used as directed.  With fully charged batteries and rodent fully committed to trap.
