Wilco Ground Squirrel Bait, manufactured by Wilco, is an excellent option for addressing ground squirrel invasions on a property and stopping their damage.

It contains the lethal active ingredient diphacinone, a multi-feed bait that delivers a slow but effective kill. No pre-baiting is required, as the bait is palatable and contains cracked corn, cornmeal, and almonds.

Wilco Ground Squirrel Bait is an effective multi-feed bait that ground squirrels find irresistible. The design of this product ensures these pests will consume the bait instead of storing it.  

Tools Needed

A bait station is required for safety reasons. You should also use a long-handled scooper and gloves before adding the bait to stations.

How to Use

  • Step 1: Place 2 to 4 pounds worth of bait pellets in a bait station and then put 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: After a few days, collect and bury any dead rodents you find, and then dispose of the leftover bait according to the label directions. Ensure that an uninterrupted bait supply is always available for at least 15 days or until signs of feeding have stopped.

Where to Use

Wilco Ground Squirrel Bait is labeled to be used only to control ground squirrels and can be used 100 feet of buildings to control them. As their name implies, ground squirrels live on the ground and will be where you will find their burrows. Look for these burrows inside your property, close to gardens and near their primary source of food, which includes vegetables, nuts, and other beneficial plant life.

When to Use

This product should be used when you have discovered the damage done by ground squirrels or if they have invaded your home or place of business.

Safety Information

Wilco Ground Squirrel Bait is safe to use around children and pets when applied according to the product label instructions. Always wear the proper personal protective equipment (PPE) when handling and applying this product. 

This product is extremely toxic to mammals, birds, dogs, and cats. 

Special Considerations

It is mandatory to use this Wilco Ground Squirrel Bait with tamper-resistant bait stations whenever placing the bait anywhere.
