Q:If a cat eats a mouse that has eaten the poison bait, will it kill a cat?10/2/22A:Without knowing the bait used its hard to say what the effects may, but most baits will recommend using it within a tamper-proof bait station to avoid exposure to scavenging wildlife. It would be best to refer to the effects and pre-cautions on the product label of the bait used. Typically, Second Generation Anticoagulant Rodenticides (SGAR) baits have a stronger concentration of product meaning the poison is more likely to stay active in a dead rodent, risking exposure to scavenging wildlife or pets.

Q:We have a large chipmunk population, but it is only the mice that find a way in the house. Would rather not hurt the chipmunks, can they get inside & eat the bait? Which station will only allow small mice to enter? Thank you.5/20/19A:I work in pest control, and find that squirrels and chipmunk will chew right through the plastic to get to the bait.
