    Protecta Bait Station

    By John on 10/06/2010

    Verified Purchase

    Works Great! I used in combination with the T-Rex trap and they worked perfectly. I skipped the rat attractant and just used peanut butter - worked fine, although if you have a lot of traps liquid attractant is probably faster. I have 3 dogs and wanted to be sure they didn't get poisoned or set off the trap. I live 1/4mi from the ocean in MA so wharf rats are looking for a home this time of year - the stone foundation of my 100+ year old house likely has some gaps and a rat got inside several years ago - no fun at all. I placed several Protecta stations/T-Rex traps around the perimeter/exterior of my foundation and got a rat within days. I don't recall if there is a bait station with a see through top - if so that would save the hassle of having to open the box to see if you have a "catch" or not.

    Easy to bait, tamper resistant, works well!

    By Sharon on 06/14/2010

    We have encircled the perimeter of our 1.5 acre property with these bait boxes, using the Supersize Blox bait and our home has been rodent free for over a year. We replace the bait every 6-8 weeks (and add snail bait to the box, too). Knowing we are rodent free is worth every penny.

    Protecta rat bait station

    By Thomas on 10/02/2010

    The unit was delivered before the expected time. Once I realize that all I need to do is to make it look like the picture of the open station on the website, the station can be set up easily. The screw lock and Allen wrench key combination, as provided, is much more preferable than any special lock and key in other models. As smaller size packages (1 lb or less) are not available on the web, bait needs to be purchased at local Home Depot or Lowes stores. Watch for dead rats in the bushes!

    Protecta Bait Station

    By Bonnie on 09/28/2010

    The stations are easy to use and load. We noticed activity almost immediately in some. Since we are in he northwest, slugs have a tendency to go in as well as rodents. I had been wanting to get bait stations for quite a long time, and your product had the best price.

    Good quality

    By Rich on 12/07/2015

    I got six of these and am happy with the build quality and usefulness of them. The plastic is good and thick, and the box latches securely even before locking it. These are solid.

    Great tamper resistant trap!

    By Anonymous on 08/10/2013

    I am very happy with these stations. I bought three not knowing if I'd need three and I'm glad I did. I filled one and put it in the shed as an "I'm not sure what else to do with this" station, and that is the one that the rats go to the most--probably because it's away from the dogs and private and closer to the alley. I had a bad infestation and it was gone within a week or two using Final Blox and these. One of them--the one in the shed--gets a ton of traffic and is empty in roughly a week. The one closest to the side alley empties in about two weeks, but it's been cooler here lately, and it's been emptying faster, I think because they're heading toward the structures. The other one, also near the house but not an alley, doesn't get much traffic, but it gets some. I may eventually move it to the shed also, but I haven't done that yet. These do a great job of keeping the rat bait in the station and out of the reach of any pets. I have dogs and was very leery of using poison, but a friend told me about these and they're excellent. I do stay outside with the dogs in case a bit got out of the traps, but I was already going out with them anyway. The one in the shed is completely away from my dogs. I worried at first about it, but they haven't even tried to mess with the traps. They sniff where the rats are entering and exiting occasionally, but that's not worrisome. One thing I am going to do is take the one that's used less often and put two of the horizontal bars in it and take its vertical bars and put them in the one that's used the most to allow for more bait to be in the heavily used one. Buy more than you think you need. You'll be glad.

    Kills Rats Well & Keeps my Puppy safe!

    By Anonymous on 08/06/2013

    I am very happyily in control of my rat problem thanks to your company! We live across the street from a large horse riding stable that, of course, feeds grain to their horses. And there is a lush ravine between our property and the stable. (It's the kind of place rats like to call home, unfortunately!) If I didn't have your great product system there would be no way for us to be rat free. I regularly check my traps and re-stock them when needed so I will remain rat free. Your system makes it easy. Thanks from one of your many, I'm sure, very happy customers! - John D.

    I placed several around the outside of my house and a couple inside my garages, within a couple of days I have found deat rats around the yard. I feel safe that no good animals can get into the stations and end up dead.

    Bait Stations

    By Anonymous on 07/09/2013

    Verified Purchase

    We have had great success with the 6+ bait stations. We live in a very open area to wildlife and such. This does keep the rat/mice at bay. Rat/mice activity was very high when first placed, very minimal now. Very simple to use, only issue is the way it's sealed (allen screw) which I would assume it provides some protection incase children were to come across them.

    Protecta Rat Bait Station

    By William on 04/10/2012

    Verified Purchase

    I have several of these Rat Bait Station positioned around the outside of my yard. So far, they have caught about 5 rats and the rats are becoming noticeably absent. They work in heavy rain because the rats go inside to get out of the rain. Then it's lights out.

    Set up around the house

    By Myra on 08/09/2012

    With the loss of a significant income, we decided to do our own rat bait stations. They look fine, we screwed them down so they are safe, and added bait we bought from Do My Own Pest Control.com. Now we wait for a month and then go look at the status of the stations. Couldn't be easier. If necessary, we can refill the stations monthly. That's something that didn't happen when we had to pay for the service.

    Great Sturdy Product

    By Robert on 10/14/2013

    Verified Purchase

    Sturdy and quality product to eradicate large mice & rats! Closes securely to prevent other wildlife from getting into the poison. I use a small C clamp on small holes predrilled to front on box to keep pets and other critters from getting into the bait.

    Satisfied Purchase

    By Burnie on 07/02/2016

    The product was well built and good quality. It included two methods for mounting the bait. The predrilled holes for the bait rods fit very well. I was most intrigued with the multiple latch methods. The easy spring catches, the removable tie-wrap, a Philips screw, and a place for a pad-lock.

    Very Effective and Safeguards Pets

    By Barbara on 10/08/2013

    I set them out after noticing a rat around my bird feeders. Today I checked them and much to my surprise and delight, every bait block was GONE! This is a very effective method because last year I used large T-Rex snap traps and managed to get just one rat. Plus, considering the amount of bait that was consumed, there was obviously a bigger problem than I was aware of.

    Always Happy!

    By Diane on 12/21/2018

    I'm always happy when I realize I need something and then I can buy it from you. I've purchased these Protecta Rat Bait Stations before and they work. My husband just recently threw away a deceased rodent and we didn't have to worry about splatter. Plus with your Terad 3, we don't have to worry about the secondary poisoning. We're using this one in a new location. Many thanks!

    Good product, service

    By Jim on 09/07/2011

    This product was delivered quickly and is very sturdy. I use it with one of those trex-type traps. The rat got my peanut butter! I'm going to set it up again and hopefully the trap will spring. I didn't want to use poison because I didn't want a rat carcass in my yard.
