Solutions Weighted Bait Station
Solutions Weighted Bait Station
The Solutions Anchored Rat Mouse Bait Station is a durable and quick-to-open tamper-proof bait station specially designed to secure bait blocks or snap traps in a protective enclosure to allow rodents in and keep people and non-target animals out. This station features an integrated weight system to keep entrances at ground level and to avoid damaging surfaces.
This Anchored Rat Mouse Bait Station, manufactured by Solutions, is a heavy-duty and discrete rodent bait station that protects baits and snap traps from the elements, and in turn protect children, pets, and wildlife from rodenticides. This low profile bait station appeals to a rat's or mice burrowing behavior by providing a confined space where they feel safe.
Unlike other weighted bait stations, the Solutions Anchored Rat Mouse Bait Station features an integrated weighted system with the concrete weight incorporated into the station's body. This means entry points are kept at ground level for easy entrance by rodents and avoids scraping or damaging surfaces.
Solutions Anchored Rat Mouse Bait Station offers a quick-to-service and easy-to-unlock lid which opens away from the wall for faster bait reloading. Its smooth design also allows for simplified maintenance and cleaning. This ultra-durable, custom design allows users to easily secure rodent bait blocks within the large bait reservoir by quickly popping in and out the included steel rods for faster rodent control. The bait station's intuitive construction also allows for plastic rat snap traps to be inserted and held securely in place without the need to fiddle with installing vertical rods.
Tools Needed
Tools are not needed for baiting or placing the Solutions Rat & Mouse Bait Stations, however rodenticide bait blocks with pre-drilled holes or bait filled snap traps are needed.
These stations require a key to be opened. You will receive 1 key with the station.
How to Use
- Step 1: Unlock the Solutions Rat & Mouse Bait Station with the supplied key in the single keyhole at the front of the bait station. Simply turn once in a quarter turn motion with the single rod end of the key to open the bait station. Be sure to wear the proper personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves to hide your scent from rodents when handling the bait station and selected rodenticide products.
- Step 2: When you have inserted either rodent bait or snap trap inside of the station you can then place the stations along exterior walls or fence lines with the entry holes against the wall every 40 feet apart.
How to Load Bait Blocks
- Step 1: Skewer 3-6 bait blocks with the horizontal rods which comes with each station. Insert the loaded rods into the station's bait reservoir, sliding the rod's ends into the rod holders. Shut the trap's lid until you hear it snap into place. Once closed, this tamper-resistant bait station cannot be reopened without the key.
How to Set Trap Inside
- Step 1: Set snap trap within the station with the trap's arming end placed directly in front the small, vertical rod holders. The trap's kill-end should be up against the station's runway wall for easy approach by rodents. Bait the snap trap's trigger plate with peanut butter or seeds.
- Step 2: Once the snap trap is secured, close the lid to the Solutions Rat & Mouse Bait Station until you hear it click into place. When the lid has been closed, you will need to use the key to reopen it since it automatically locks.
- Step 3: Replace the bait on your selected snap trap daily to ensure freshness. Properly dispose of any dead rodents on a daily basis in the snap trap within this bait station.

Q:Is there a minimum number of bait stations recommended? How do you know how many bait stations you'll need?6/27/18A:There is not really a minimum, you will want to think about this from a rats point of view. They like to move around in areas that will give them some coverage. So this could be side of a home or garage that does not have a lot of activity. Areas that have high shrubs and harborage areas are another place to think about placing. Best coverage would be to have one placed on all sides of the structures, but at the least in the areas listed above. This should give you good coverage for rat control.
