Wilco Ground Squirrel Bait
Wilco Ground Squirrel Bait
Wilco Ground Squirrel Bait is manufactured by Wilco and is a great option for addressing ground squirrel invasions on a property, putting a stop to their damage. Wilco Ground Squirrel bait contains the lethal active ingredient diphacionone, which is a multi-feed bait and delivers a slow but effective kill. There is no pre-baiting required as the bait is palatable on their own, containing cracked corn, corn meal and almonds.
Tools Needed
To use Wilco Ground Squirrel it is required to use a bait station for safety reasons.You should also use a long-handled scooper and gloves before adding the bait to stations.
How to Use
- Step 1: In a bait station, place 2 to 4 pounds worth of bait pellets and then place the station near active squirrel burrow openings.
- Step 2: Place multiple stations 20 to 100 feet apart depending on the density of the ground squirrel population.
- Step 3: Wait a few days and then collect and bury any dead rodents you find and then dispose of the leftover bait according to the label directions. Make sure that an uninterrupted supply of bait is always available for at least 15 days or until signs of feeding have stopped.
