This rat bait works but you have to crush it and mix it with some food over about a week or two. The rats won’t eat the pellets. Some of the pellets are harder to crush. So I put pellets in a plastic bag and use a hammer or meat tenderizer so crush pellets. Then I mix the crushed pellets with peanut butter and leave mixture out on a paper plate. I do this everyday over two weeks or until I see that the mixture is not being eaten anymore. The best part is that when they die there is no smell! Thank you, it’s been so nice having a good night sleep with no more noise from the rodents. The only suggestion I have for company is that it’d be convenient if the bait came in a powder form so you don’t have to crush it. Good luck!

The rats avoided the pellets like the plague. They would eat everything else but not those expansive pellets. Waste of money.

I wrote a review on their discs, so I’d like to post some parts of that here as well since the same info applies. I apologize for the all capital letter title. Just know that this stuff doesn’t work. Well, that isn’t 100% accurate since I don’t know what would happen to the mice and rats if they ate this. Why? Because THE WON’T EAT IT! I bought the discs back in March, and I even went so far as to buy their little bait stations too. I placed the station right next to a hole where mice were entering my home. Of course they simply avoided it. I set up a night vision capable camera and watched them walk around it rather than go inside and eat the bait. So, I placed a disc outside of the station and still in front of the hole. They literally crawled over it and just went along their merry way. So then I took some of these pellets. I put them in a tray with some bird seed, uncooked rice (because that’s what they got into the last time in my house - a brand new bag of rice), and even some cheese. Guess what they ate? EVERYTHING BUT THESE PELLETS. I had so hope that maybe some of the powder from the pellets did something to those little critters, but the mice problem persisted. So I did what any partially sane person (since I was losing my sanity because of these mice) would do at this point: I crushed some up and sprinkled it all over various foods. One bowl of rice. Later a bowl of dry cereal. I tried so many things, and then I even put out cheese with the dust sprinkled on it. Guess what? These little critters now avoided all the foods they were eating inside my home! WOW! It seems to me that this stuff doesn’t attract them at all, but instead, it makes them not want to eat stuff. So what about outside? Nope, not a single bite. I placed bait stations outside too. I even got some other brand ones with bigger openings so the rats coming down from the hillside would fit. They crawled on top of the stations rather than go inside. And when I put bait on top of the station, they didn’t even pay them any attention. Mice and Rats are simply not attracted to this bait at all, so how could it possibly work if they won’t eat it? I have no clue what to do to entice them to eat these darn things. I was so hopeful that this would reduce their numbers, but I was deeply disappointed. What a waste of my hard earned money. If I was still within the return window, I would pack all of this useless stuff back up in the bags to get a refund. Yes, I have all the discs still because the mice and rats won’t even sniff this stuff let alone eat it. And I have the bag of pellets about half full. Save your money and buy something else that’s more effective. I don’t know how other people got the mice and rats to eat this stuff, but I’ve got some crazy smart rodents that are just built different.

Delivered quickly. Seems to be working better than the cats and costs less! We live in the country with cows and mules for neighbors. Field mice and rats seem to like our dog, cat and human food so they make themselves at home in my home. I really don't want to share! I like this product because while being fatal to the mice, it won't hurt the animals I do want to share my home with!

Rats won't eat the product as sold. Hence 1) I added peanut oil, some powdered sugar and sprinkled in peanuts and sunflower seeds -> rats ate most of it. But they learned and stopped eating it. 2) I escalated to adding peanut butter besides peanut oil+sugar->rats licked the RatX sticks clean and threw them aside but some of the RatX was eaten. 3) I tried grinding to mix with PB: it didn't work bc it is difficult to grind. 4) I added condensed milk and peanut butter-> Ratx turned into a powder that the rats wouldn't touch. Threw away the powdery Ratx about 2 cups worth 5) I went back to Ratx sticks with peanut oil, PB, sugar and I got exasperated so I slipped in some baking soda (supposedly another rodenticide) so that, if all they did was lick off the PB they would eat the baking soda. Rats didn't touch it. 6) Tonight, I took this untouched batch and added melted beef fat+ bacon fat + another blob of PB. I'll update as to whether it was eaten or not. Update: rats ate it. As to overall results: there has been a decrease in rat activity and 3 rats showed up dead. So far. I've gone through 3.5 lbs worth of RatX in ~3 weeks. Update: 1 more dead rat and activity in all tunnels stopped. No activity by the nest itself which is under my porch. So RatX did work although it took some work to have the rats eat it. I recommend the use of peanut oil+sugar and beef fat/bacon fat. It seemed to work best.
