RatX Throw Packs- for All Species of Rats and Mice Safe Around Pets

Like most reviewers, I purchased this product because of its uniqueness in working on rats and mice ONLY. It's safe around other animals (cats, dogs, birds, etc.) but it's not a miracle bait. It does take time (as the directions say) and one has to use it correctly (which I have found most are not). I do not recommend using peanut butter (and neither does the customer support team). You cannot use it around water sources. It defeats the purpose and intent of the product. Using the correct "attracter" (bacon grease, seeds, and dry cat food) makes for a good source of attracting them to the bait. Before using this bait, we had (have) a mice/rat issue and after a week of using this product I would say we eliminated them completely (we never will get to that point) but the number and noises have seemed to decrease. The bait seems like it will work, it will take a few days to see or notice results, you have to use it correctly, and you may have to use it more than once. But if you are concerned about your pets or other wildlife, you do not have to worry when using this. A word of caution!!!! If you intend to use to use this bail in conjunction with some sort of 'hard' traps, be prepared to check them DAILY. It will work.

The use was easy, just open and lay some out. I still hear the mouse in my closet at night, but it's staying in one place. This mouse is smart. It doesn't leave droppings all over the house. I did hear it crunching on some of the poison the first day I put it out. Hopefully it dies within a week. It's been 2 weeks and it's still alive and scratching and moving around in my boxes. It eats the poison and keeps on living. I think I'll call a exterminator. Waste of money.

arrived on time. This stuff is great! It definitely only effects the rats and doesn't bother any other animals. The snap traps only work for so long until they get wise, and we also had a bird who got his foot caught in it. Highly recommend for anyone worried about other wildlife. While I don't like to kill things, the rats were multiplying faster than we could control the problem but this stuff handled it all with no mess.

I'm not so sure it is working. I have put the second pack out, but still have seen activity . As a matter of fact saw one on my patio in the daytime. Also, wondering about the date 10/11/25 that's stamped on the box. Expiration ? Only thing I know is try another pack and see what happens.

The packets themselves got no attention at all. So I broke them open and mixed them with peanut butter. I put them out after dark so as to not attract the squirrels, on little disposable plates. The ones in the back yard (5) got eaten totally last night, and the night before, 3 1/2 got eaten. In the front yard, it looked like one was eaten, and one was untouched. A couple of them look like they've been nibbled at. My concern is that the big possum is eating them that comes through my yard. I gather them up before dawn when the squirrels awaken, so as to not give them any problems. Squirrels are only active from dawn to after dusk. I didn't hear any chewing in my ceiling last night, so I am hopeful. I will probably be ordering some more after I mix up this next batch, but want to see if the bait is still there in the front. With a possum, it's hard to tell what is going on. They eat anything.

These work great to help get rid of pests running around an attic or any other place you cannot set regular traps.

I love how easy these are to use. We have a huge attic and I placed around 12 packs around up there and the rat presence disappeared. The same is true for our crawl space. We live left to a national park and have all kinds of wildlife. Killing these rats without any danger to the rest of the wildlife is important to us. I had used rat poison a few years ago when the problem first came up, the poison killed the rats, but we had one crawl into our wall up to the second floor in an outside where we were unable to get to it without disassembling an entire bathroom. We had to wait for many weeks for the smell to go away and for that bathroom to become useable again. No such problem with this product. I have cleaned out several mummified rats from my crawl space. Works great.

I bought these for ease of use. I put a couple in an outside shed and some in my garage. The rats/mice never once took the bait. I then used the conventional trays with pellets and placed them next to the throw packets. The rodents ate the conventional pellets but never once touched the pellets in the bag. I first used this product January 2022 so it has been 10 months of use that the Throw packs have been in use BUT with no rodents eating the bait.

The rats won’t eat this stuff at all. A waste of money

Not working in my situation. Maybe somewhere else

The product seems to work. Early days yet. But the packaging was really bad. The box was squashed and the individual packets were popped and and in the bottom of the post bag which when I got was split.

This might work for big rats, but the mice getting in to the chicken coop ignore the packs, including when I opened up one of the packs and spread some. Not effective
