| Rodent Bait Use
& Prices
Having a problem with mice, rats, gophers, or ground
squirrels? Our department formulates various rodent
baits and sells them to the public and industry.
Rats and Mice:
Several types of bait are available for these vermin.
Diphacinone, an anticoagulant, needs to be consumed
by the pest for about 5 days without interruption in
order to be effective. Loose treated grain is put in
bait stations and treated blocks can be placed in trees
and other areas where bait stations arent practical.
The other type of bait we sell for rats and mice is
Zinc Phosphide, a pelletized bait which is quicker acting
than anticoagulants, but may not be eaten as readily.
Gophers:
If you become frustrated with trapping, Zinc Phosphide
bait placed underground in burrows is very effective.
This is the only material we have for gophers.
Ground
Squirrels:
For these varmints, Diphacinone bait placed in bait
stations is the most practical control method for large
infestations. We also sell gas cartridges for fumigating
inside the squirrel burrow. Zinc Phosphide 1% is also
available, but only to licensed pest control companies
and permittees.

must be used in applying these baits to prevent access
by children and non-target animals.
