Ratshot poison

[Bertie-Merle]

Okay, good to know. The product I was referring to is heavy in NaCI (sodium chloride) or salt. Even in a base of corn meal, wheat flour and wheat germ oil I found it to not be touched by the mice/rodents that would get into my feed shed. I just thoroughly swept/hosed out my feed barn and replaced any plastic feed bins with galvanized trash cans. I can't do anything about any remaining sunflower seeds, etc. that critters will find in the grass from their "scratch" I throw them in the morning. I have pecan trees and oak trees with nuts and acorns all over my property, so for me totally removing all food sources is impossible. I just keep things as clean and tidy as I can and set traps if I see droppings.

Any better ideas are absolutely always welcome! ; -)

Edited to correct with actual ingredients list. The product I used is named either "MouseX" or "RatX". I only tried it because it is safe around dogs, but the rodents wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole.

Thank you @Bertie-Merle and @NatJ
This was the information I was hoping for. One of experience, the other of observation of a fact I didn’t understand. Thank you. Both.
I even keep my galvanized trash cans of feed in my house because I have another predator that doesn’t care what the feed is in. I have black bears.

Cryss,

I just updated my prior post with the correct brand name and ingredients of what I tried that did not work because the rodents wouldn't touch it. I was mistaken in thinking it was the same as the original poster. My apologies for confusing the two. Oh, and good luck with "dem Bears!".
