Kaput-D Prairie Dog Bait (Wheat)
Kaput Combo Prairie Dog Bait is manufactured by Kaput Scimetrics and granular bait created for the control of black tailed prairie dogs and pocket gophers. Kaput Combo Prairie Dog Bait is a restricted use pesticide (RUP) and comes in either a 30 lb bucket or a 50 lb bag.

The machine should penetrate deep into the burrow and apply the bait at least six inches underground. It should also be calibrated to only dispense the recommended about of bait into each burrow. After initial application make a second application approximately six days after first application..
- Step 4: Return to the site of application within 4 days after initial application and dispose of dead prairie dog bodies.

Collect the bodies in the late afternoon, or near sundown, to reduce the potential of nocturnal predators from coming in contact with the infected bodies.
