Abstract

A bait station for containing rat poison contains a housing (12, 13); at least one opening (15) in the housing for a rat to enter; and a bait position (16) in the housing for locating poisoned bait. A divider (18) is provided between the bait position (16) and each opening (15) to prevent direct access to the bait from the opening, for example by a child.
However, there are at least two different routes from the bait position (16) leading to openings (15). Research has shown that rats, unlike mice, prefer not to eat in a confined space and it is believed that the choice of escape routes offered by the bait station of the invention encourages a rat to eat more of the bait. The bait station may include a hinged lid (13) with locking means (24, 25) to prevent tampering with the bait.
