MOTOMCO Tomcat Mouse and Rat Bromethalin Bait Chunx, 4-Pound by Motomco

Wow, so we had a rain storm here in Florida, during a massive community wide garage sale. Our garage doors were open and we saw this giant, I mean large rat run in from our mulch bed to our garage. Everyone panicked lol. It was like a scary movie. First night I tried some good mousetraps (20 bucks for 6 of them, they were legit ones with claws on the snapper etc, but the rat was able to get the peanut butter and set off the traps but they weren't going to get him. So I ordered two tomcat boxes as well as a pail of the tomcat feeding pods (the 4lb pail of green pods). I placed two of these black boxes which are pet safe for dogs and cats, along the walls of the inside of my garage. The morning after I placed them, I opened the first box and sure enough, two of the tomcat pods had been chewed on. That was Tuesday night they were placed. Wednesday morning I checked the box and saw it nibbled on. I told my wife on Wednesday night that we should expect anytime from Thursday to Sunday, this rat to be dead. I said 1 of 2 things is going to happen, this rat I saw twice, run up to a ceiling rack in my garage as I heard traps going off late at night and I ran over to the garage to check out if they got it. Well, I said it's 1. Going to fall out of one of the racks once this poison takes over. Or 2. It would die in the rack, or perhaps it's on the shelving or somewhere else in the garage at the time it hits it. You never know where those things are because they hide. It's Thursday morning, I hear this scream and I didn't know if my wife was being attacked but within two seconds I realized she was going out to work. The rat had dropped out of the ceiling rack and slid off her SUV as she backed out. Not kidding. I said to her this was best case because we didn't have to be spooked taking things off our ceiling racks and all our shelving searching for a dead rat. I kid you not. It was sitting on our driveway and I scooped it up in to a small box and disposed everything in a sanitary way. So pleased with this stuff. First night, it lured the rat. It says it works off one feeding and after 1-4 days of the feeding. We experienced this all just as it said it would happen. I could not be happier. Two tomcat black boxes and one bucket of this stuff was just over fifty bucks. The cost for an exterminator would have been far more, I have enough of this now for a long time. I am so happy we went after it before it got inside the house by eating through the drywall of the garage and did major damage to wiring etc. It actually in just the first night, had eaten off and shredded the weather sealing on about 6" worth of it, on our door in our garage that leads to the house. Shredded it. It was a panic in the home for a few nights here but this was the perfect remedy and it's addressed. GREAT product!!!!! Follow the directions, couldn't have been easier. In 2 minutes I had the box and poison pods on the rods, all done. It worked EXACTLY as it said it would.

seems to work great and it will not poison any other animals that eat the dead mice

The active ingredient in this rodenticide is bromethalin. Unlike first and second generation rodenticides which function as anti-coagulants, bromethalin is a neurotoxin, making it far more effective and faster. First and second generation rodenticides usually require a rat to eat quite a bit of the poison, then you have to wait another 5 to 7 days for the creature to die. Usually more than a week passes before the creature died. This doesn't sound like much, but a week of damage in your garden or in your house can be rather significant. With Bromethalin, one single lethal dose is all that is required to kill the creature. The rat usually dies around 3 days later. Bromethalin, because it is so effective, is also very toxic to humans and pets, so it is far more likely to affect non-targeted creatures too. You will need to wear gloves as it can be absorbed through the skin. Be careful not to inhale small dust particles, although that is unlikely to happen as it comes in blocks. There is no antidote available for Bromethalin poisoning, should someone ingest it, so be very careful if you have kids or pets in the backyard. Unlikely first and second generation rodenticides that are generally less toxic to groundhogs and opossums, bromethalin will kill them. They are not meant to be used that way and it may even be illegal in some areas to kill these creatures using bromethalin, so try not to leave these lying around in your garden in the open. You might end up with more than just dead rats. The same goes for any pets in the area. It is advisable to only use Bromethalin in suitable devices that have a small hole large enough for mouse or rats. Bromethalin is an effective tool for controlling the population of mice and rats in your garden. I really like this product as it is effective, yet affordable too. I find that I use less of this compared to less effective rodenticides. I prefer the blocks compared to the small rice-like granules packets. The granular packets often contain too much bait every per packet. The blocks are much easier to spread and are a smaller portion too. They fit well in mice traps. Using one or two at a time is enough for a particular spot, so they last a long time. There is one thing to note: These are best suited for outdoor or garden use. The reason is that if you use these indoors, the rats are likely to end up dying behind a wall, in the air vent, or in some unknown corner of the house. The smell is not pleasant and can last for a few weeks. If you are looking to handle mice that are inside the house, I would recommend getting an electric mouse trap. That way, they do not end up rotting behind some furniture or wall. This rodenticides are best reserved for outdoor use.

We went on vacation for a month to Thailand (Jan 2024) . Our cat was put in an “ Pet hotel” for a month so if the cats away the mice will play….. we came home to a friggin mess. Mice got into everything everywhere even up in the attic. Man they ate the blue soap out of two boxes of Brillo , ,like 24 pads . Steel wool was everywhere ,They ate into the dry cat food bags, 10 lbs of food gone in a month. I found the hole in the floor they made ,sprayed that insulation foam and used plywood on top to seal it up. The first night back from our awesome vacation was hell. The mice were partying in the attic and in the crawl space, Scratching and making all sorts of noises, my wife was buggin out. we didn’t sleep at all . For a few hours I read reviews of dozens of “pest control” products, I decided to purchase this Tomcat Stuff at 3am. Within 12 hours we got it delivered. 3pm I strategically placed about 10 blocks in the corners in the attic, and 10 blocks in the crawl space. It’s now been 6 hours (9pm ) and we don’t hear ANYTHING ANYWHERE . After reading hundreds of more reviews 6 hours since the placing the blocks around ,I don’t think anyone has seen results this fast. Fingers crossed for a peaceful night. As the title says ,,,So far So good, !!!! Rick

They fit in all my mouse "Hotels" and significantly reduce the mouse population. They chew a bit return to their home - and never see the light of day.
