Fastrac Pellets Place Paks Rodenticide

The active ingredient bromethalin poisons the central nervous system, causing the rodent to stop feeding after ingesting the poison, so more rodents can be controlled with less bait. Determine areas where rats or mice will most likely find and consume the bait. Generally, these areas are along walls, by gnawed openings, in or beside burrows, in corners and concealed places, between floors and walls, or in locations where rodents or their signs have been seen. Protect bait from rain and snow. Rodents open the place pacs with their gnawing. The slender place pacs can be used in bait stations along rodent runways and in hard-to-reach locations. Pacs can be opened also and loose pellets poured down burrows. To increase effectiveness, remove as much alternative food as possible so that rodents will seek the bait first. Apply 1 place pac per placement. Space placements at intervals of 8 - 12 feet in infested areas. Two place pacs may be used at points of extremely high mouse activity. Dead rodents will begin to show up in one to two days, and should be disposed of immediately. Warning: This bait does not have an antidote. In other words, there is no known agent to neutralize or counteract the effects of Bromethalin poisoning. While it does take a relatively large amount of bait for poisoning to occur, children, pets, and non-targeted animals should not be exposed.

IMPORTANT: Do not expose children, pets, or non-target animals to rodenticides.

To help prevent accidents:

1. Store unused product out of reach of children and pets.
2. Apply bait in locations out of reach of children, pets, domestic animals and nontarget wildlife, or in tamper resistant bait stations. These stations must be resistant to destruction by dogs and by children under six years of age, and must be used in a manner that prevents such children from reaching into bait compartments and obtaining bait. If bait can be shaken from bait stations when they are lifted, units must be secured or otherwise immobilized. Stronger bait stations are needed in areas open to hoofed livestock, raccoons, bears or other potentially destructive animals, or in areas prone to vandalism.
3. Dispose of product container and unused, spoiled or unconsumed bait as specified on this label.

USE RESTRICTIONS:

For control of house mice. When used in USDA-inspected facilities, this must be applied in tamper-resistant bait stations. Do not broadcast bait.

Urban Areas:

This may be used in and around the periphery of homes, industrial, commercial, and public buildings. May also be used in transport vehicles (ships, trains, aircraft) and in and around related port or terminal buildings. May also be used in alleys. Do not use in sewers.

Non-Urban Areas:

This may be used inside of homes and agricultural buildings.

SELECTION OF TREATMENT AREAS:

Determine areas where mice will most likely find and consume the bait. Generally, these areas are along walls, by gnawed openings, in or beside burrows, in corners and concealed places, between floors and walls, or in locations where rodents or their signs have been seen. Protect bait from rain and snow. Remove as much alternative food as possible.

APPLICATION DIRECTIONS:

• RATS: Apply 2 to 12 place paks per placement (usually at intervals of 15 to 30 feet). Adjust the amount of bait applied to the level of rat feeding expected at each bait placement.
• MICE: Apply 1 place pak per placement. Space placements at intervals of 8 - 12 feet in infested areas. Two place paks may be used at points of extremely high mouse activity.
• BAITING STRATEGY: Highest bait consumption is expected to occur on the first day or two after treatment begins. After several days, inspect the placement and replenish bait at sites where there is evidence of heavy feeding or where there is continued evidence of rodent activity. Normally, the volume of bait consumed will be significantly less with bromethalin baits than with anticoagulant baits. Although one night's feeding will usually provide a lethal dose, maintain bait for at least one week to provide all rodents a chance to feed on the bait. Continue baiting until all signs of feeding have ceased. Collect and properly dispose of all dead, exposed animals and leftover bait. To prevent reinfestation, limit sources of rodent food, water, and harborage as much as possible. If reinfestation does occur, repeat treatment. Where a continuous source of infestation is present, establish permanent bait stations and replenish as needed.
