The Terad3 Blox should be placed in tamper resistant bait stations within 50 ft of the building. The best way to get rid of the rodents that are already in your cottage is to trap them with snap traps, glue boards and/or live catch traps. We do not recommend using poison baits indoors because after the mice/rats eat the bait they may go into an inaccessible area to die causing a terrible odor and possibly even a secondary insect infestation (it is a myth that there is a poison bait that will cause the mice/rats to dry out and not smell or to leave the house in search of water). It is important that you place the traps directly in the mice/rats travel path and bait them with an attractive bait such as nuts, dog kibble, canned tuna or peanut butter. Be patient, it could take several days or even a couple of weeks before the mice/rats are comfortable enough with the traps to approach them and be captured. After you have eliminated your current infestation, you must take the time to exclude rodents from entering your home in the future.
