The Protecta EVO Express Bait Station provides a safe place for rodents to consume the bait, and will likely try to return to it's nest to die, but will likely not die inside the bait station itself. It is not recommended to use bait stations indoors, since after a rat consumes a lethal dose of the bait it is possible that the animal can get into an area that is inaccessible making removing the carcass impossible. This can lead to a terrible odor and a secondary insect infestation. For more helpful information, you can read our guide on How to Get Rid of Rats.

Fastrac Blox is a great option for use outdoors inside of bait stations. Be sure to use it inside of these bait stations so that no non-target animals come in contact with it. There is no antidote associated with this rodenticide, so be very mindful of that. Generally though, if your pet consumed dead rats after they consumed this product, there is such a small amount of the active ingredient in each bite that your pet will have to eat their body weight in rats to be affected.
Yes, when used as directed the Protecta EVO Express Bait Station is pet safe as the bait station is tamper-resistant. It is possible for your pet to encounter a dead rodent as there is no sure way to know where they will die after consuming bait. However, a rodent only consumes a very small amount of bait at a time and passes it very quickly only keeping a smaller amount in their liver until they succumb to the effects of the bait. A cat would have to consume multiple entire rodents in order to ingest enough poison to have effects. In most cases, well-fed domesticated animals will not actually eat a mouse or a rat that they come across. Instead they will play with it, chew it and then leave it behind.
