When it comes to dealing with rodents in Georgia, bait stations are a top pick for both homeowners and businesses. Unlike the quick snap of a traditional trap, these stations lure rats in with a highly attractive and toxic bait. Some rodents will eat the bait on the spot while others will carry it back to the nest, killing the colony over time. While bait stations are very effective, they aren’t safe without help from a qualified expert.
Rats are always on the lookout for their next meal, and these bait stations serve up an extremely tempting option. Though it looks and smells like something that rats can eat, the bait is full of toxic chemicals. If they ingest it or bring it back to their nest, they’ll die within just a few days.
It’s important to note that bait stations aren’t only risky for rats. Pets and humans, especially kids, can stumble upon these toxic traps accidentally. The chemicals can cause health problems if touched and may be fatal if ingested. That’s why where you stash these stations matters – they need to be stored away from prying paws and curious hands. And here’s another kicker: placement. They’re only effective if they’re in the right spots where those sneaky rats will find them.

If you or a loved one touched a rodent bait station accidentally, take immediate action. Avoid touching your face, especially your eyes or mouth, until you’ve washed your hands. If you notice any discomfort or irritation, seek medical attention immediately. If somebody accidentally ingests chemicals from a rodent bait station, call emergency services or your local poison control center for guidance.
