Rat Poison, Traps & Repellents (15 items found)

Small animals such as squirrels and rabbits can cause serious pest problems in your yard and home, but they have a cuteness on their side that can make them more easily tolerated. That's rarely the case with rats, where an infestation is nearly always unwelcome. Rat poison, bait, trap, and repellent products offer quick and effective solutions to deal with existing rodent populations and prevent new ones from arriving.

What Problems Can Rat Poison and Rat Traps Prevent?

Rats are notorious for carrying disease, and for this reason alone an infestation should be taken seriously—especially if the critters can get close to human food sources. However, rats are also very damaging with their nesting behaviors, gnawing through furniture and soft surfaces to create hideaways while chewing on just about any household material to create nesting materials.

Rats will also bite through electrical wiring, creating fire risks alongside the physical damage. They can even try to set up homes inside electrical appliances, causing short circuits. While rats aren't nearly as enthusiastic tunnelers as gophers or moles, they can still create burrows in your yard, damaging plants and undermining structures along the way.

Our rat poison, rat bait and rat traps collection will help you avoid these problems by safely and effectively keeping the local rodent population under control.

The Main Kinds of Rat Traps

Rat snap traps might be the old-school types familiar from classic cartoons, but they still provide a highly effective way of eliminating both rats and mice. To use, simply place a small amount of rat bait into the trap's cup before pulling the lever back to set the trap. When a hungry rodent steps up to the plate to investigate, the trap is sprung, and the rat is eliminated almost instantly.

Rat snap traps are available in traditional designs made from wood for straightforward and economical use or more advanced plastic designs with features like a foot pedal for safer trap setting and toothed jaws for even more efficient trapping and killing. We also carry rat glue traps that use strong adhesives to capture rats as they patrol their runs, leaving them immobile for later collection and disposal.

Do Electric Traps Work on Rats?

A more modern alternative is an electric rat trap, which uses rat bait to lure the rodent into a device that delivers a lethal electric shock, dispatching the animal quickly, cleanly, and humanely. Electric rat traps also work well on mice.

Safe Rat Poison Delivery with a Rat Bait Station

If you prefer to use rat poison rather than a trap, a rat bait station makes a safe way of delivering it without risk to pets or children. Made from a weather-resistant and tamper-proof enclosure that's refillable with rat bait, the station should be placed alongside regular rat runs or burrows where it will attract the rodents and safely deliver a lethal dose of poison.
