Romax Secure Bait Box

A high quality, tough, injection moulded bait box. The lid features a three point locking system operated by a single key turn. As well as use with rodenticide bait, the boxes can be used to house 'snap-traps'. This box has all the features of the Romax Standard Bait Box, with the added security measure that if the box is lifted, kicked or tipped a spring loaded door will snap shut preventing rodenticide bait from spilling out.

Please note this product is not supplied with rodenticide. That should be purchased separately (see ‘Related Products’)

Place the baited stations along rat runs, adjacent to walls. The bait station will offer protection to the bait from children, pets and non target animals but be sure either to anchor the bait station down (see Bait Station Ground Anchor), or place where the box is inaccessible and cannot be knocked over or moved. If this does happen, however, the Romax Secure will offer protection against bait spillage, but the box will have to be opened and reset before rats will again be able to use it.

Rats are cautious animals and will avoid new objects in their environment so do not be discouraged if they do not take the bait straight away. If you are confident that the bait is placed where rats are running, avoid the temptation to move it for at least two weeks to allow the animals to get used to it. Once the rats have started to eat the bait inspect the bait stations every few days and replenish the baits until no more baits are taken. At this point remove the bait boxes from site.

Dead rats may still contain small quantities of undigested rodenticide which may harm non-target animals. Search the site for rodent bodies and dispose of them by double bagging them and placing in the refuse. Rats can carry diseases so ensure that you are wearing impervious gloves when checking the baits, places where rats have been and when handling carcasses.
