Definitions

  • the present invention relates to improvements in and relating to pest control means. i When attempting to reduce the numbers of, or to eradicate pests in a particular area, one dan either entrap or poison the pest, i depending on the requirements of the particular situation.

  • bait stations may be used.
  • a bait station is similar to a trap in that it contains a bait or lure that is impregnated with a toxin. However, the pest is encouraged to enter the station, ingest the bait and then leave. In this way, more than one pest may be 'caught' without the need for checking, and emptying the device daily. The dead pests are usually collected from the vicinity of the bait station at a later i time. .
  • combination pest control devices may be used that contain either poison bait or a mechanism for entrapping the pest. This arrangement means that the same device can be used with either a i trap or poison bait, depending on the needs of the situation.
  • the bait station is a preferred solution i because it is capable of controlling a large number of pests, whilst only needing to be checked or restocked at intervals. i I
  • bait stations comprise a box having a number of i compartments therein.
  • a first compartment normally takes the form of a tunnel section that passes all the way through the box.
  • the tunnel usually has openings at both ends to allow uninhibited access to the

  • the object of this arrangement being; firstly, to encourage the pest to use at least the tunnel section of the bait station regularly; and secondly, to restrict or prevent access to the poison contained therein by larger 'non-target' animals, such as cats and dogs, but more importantly by children.
  • the bait When the pest enters the bait chamber, he may choose to eat some of the bait.
  • the bait is normally impregnated with a poisonous substance that acts in a time-delayed fashion thereby allowing the pest to exit the bait station before dying i soon, but nonetheless, a convenient distance away.
  • the interior of the bait station when the interior of the bait station is wet, it may i l be difficult for the pest to use it 'because the floor may be slippery. If however, the interior of the bait chamber were to remain i largely dry, the bait may kee;p in better condition, for longer, thereby improving the bait 'take' by the pests.
