I have had problems in Florida with the regular bait green blocks put into above ground bait traps outside getting mold on them within 2 weeks and than the food becomes unattractive and i have to discard.
Bait Blox or Soft Bait should be stored at room temperature and replaced every 40-60 days in the bait stations because it contains food based ingredients. The bait could mold or sour in the hot or cold months (should be replaced every 30 days during the summer and winter) and may be less palatable to the rodents. If you have used fresh bait multiple times and are unable to locate and competing food sources but still see new rodent activity, then you may want to consider using a different bait. Just like people, rodents can prefer one food over another. Soft Baits such as First Strike have very high palatability and are great to rotate from hard to soft baits or vice versa.
