Several of your answers advise against mixing RatX with other foods but don't explain why. The rats I'm trying to get rid of LOVE butter and are 100?fective at springing a spring trap without getting caught. Then they eat the butter. I even tried putting butter in every night without setting the trap and then finally setting it, but they still found away to snap it safely. My order of RatX hasn't come yet, but my original idea was to mix it with butter, knowing that they'd have to try it while to get the butter and hopefully develop a taste for it.
Rat X acts very specifically compared to other poisons on the market. Since it works to dehydrate the animal mixing any food addititives, especially wet ones, would get in the way of the product working the way it is designed with its unique ingredient components. If you wish to use butter as a lure on a poison bait, we recommend doing so with bait blocks that would be able to tolerate the ingredients and still be effective when consumed. If you have further questions regarding this, we recommend contacting the manufacturer directly at 914-376-7387.
