No spillage :)
I was worried about bait coming out, or the squirrels dropping some - nothing so far. By the way..."effectiveness" is spelled with 2 F's... :)

Bait Box
The bait boxes are being used by those little suckers, food goes very fast, empty in two day. The only issue I have with the box, it's hard to squeeze the lid to remove it. I get it, child proof. I'm a retired Ironworker and my fingers and hands don't have the grip I once had. Other than that, no other issues. Thank you Solutions.

Worked for us!
It seems to have worked. We tried for several months to get rid of a very annoying ground squirrel. Since about a week after using the bait box we haven’t seen or heard it.

The cap is a little hard to remove but I managed. Other creatures can crawl in and out of unit. Kind of pricey but necessary if you want to control squirrels.

Not useful
It did nothing for me. Squirrels didn't even go in there so that was really a waste of money

Great Product ! Terrible Vendor !
The product is great ! I have purchased and used Wilco bait stations for years. They are great ! HOWEVER ! The vendor who sold them to me, Solutions Pest and Lawn are terrible ! They failed to ship a 50 pound bag of squirrel bait, and blamed the customer, blamed FedEx blamed anybody but themselves. After investigating, Fed Ex never received the item. Solutions said that the 50 pound bag of bait was in the same box as the 2 Wilco bait Stations. Wrong. The 2 bait stations just fit inside the shipping container. Solutions denied any culpability and I still do not have a refund, or, the 50 pound bag of bait. They lost me as a customer.

The Squrriel's love it
It works great, we fill it, they empty it, the digging stops. PERFECT! Great investment, well made, it should last for years.

Works very well. Easy to bait with top cover and easy to maintain. Need to weigh down if there is livestock so they don't nose it over and potentially spill poison

Take the lid off, pour the bait in...simple to use and effective!
We have two Wilco ground squirrel bate stations and using Kaput squirrel bait, which together seem to be doing the trick-haven’t seen a squirrel in several weeks...and no damage to our flowers that we can attribute to squirrels.
Now, if a bait station that would work on rabbits could be developed, we would be ever so happy!

Questions and Answers
-
Q:What if an owl or a hawk eats bait?7/16/21A:There is another trap that does not let the animals out when they go in to eat, but then you are stuck with having to get rid of them yourself, such as drowning etc.

Q:Do they come in cases?5/17/21A:No they come in a cardboard box if they ship it to you.

Q:Is there a chance for bait to be brought out by squirrels, hence putting pets at risk?1/19/21A:I live in a rural part of Idaho and have used this bait station and Wilco bait for 6 years. I tried many other options but this works! We have lots of squirrels and never has any bait been moved out of station to the ground. A little small for squirrels to go all the way inside. I don't think squirrels would go into a confined space.

Q:Can this product be placed on the surface of the ground?7/26/20A:No, it should be put in a Wilco bait station green box. If you put it on the ground all other animals and birds can get it and die. Even your pets and kids. It n Ed’s to be used responsibly. You can buy Wilco bait stations at Walmart. I think they have the best price.

Q:Can u put the bait directly into the squirrel holes?7/3/20A:No it would get wet
Willard Jones

Q:how are pellets dispensed ?6/7/20A:Pellets are put into green trap via a screw top closure. Ground squirrels enter through the 2 side holes to eat. This bait trap and pellets are totally effective and I tried many ways when my property was overrun. After 3 teas of baiting in spring they no longer are on my property

Q:Can the station be installed on end or does it have to be laid flat?2/8/20A:It needs to be installing laying flat. Ground squirrels find it easier to get in that way.
Gregory Nay
2/8/20Certified Buyer -
Q:How do you remove the squirrels if they are inside?6/10/19A:Squires eat the bait and then retire to their den to die. They aren't inside the bait station
