No additional application tools are needed.
How to Use
- Step 1: Look for signs of rodent activity, such as droppings, gnaw marks, or nesting materials. Pay particular attention to areas around walls and other surfaces that may serve as runways, to any areas of potential entry, and to potential nesting areas.
- Step 2: Begin treatment with one scent pack per average-sized room. Increase the number of scent packs, as needed, until desired results are achieved. Heavier infestations may require more scent packs per room.
- Step 3: Simply distribute the scent packs around any area where rodents hide, feed, or congregate. For attics, staple scent packs to rafters.
- Step 4: After the rodents have left the indoor areas keep them from returning by creating a Perimeter/Barrier with the scent packs. Block all points of reentry and place scent packs at all entry points and around the structure. To repel squirrels from bird feeders, scatter scent packs around the base of the feeder, and at/on the feeder itself by stapling or hanging the scent pack with a twist-tie, string, or staples to the feeder.
- Step 5: Reapply every 14 days. f there is heavy rain, it is recommended to reapply the product.

To keep rodents out of structures and premises, be sure all points of entry are sealed, including attics and basements.
