my mouse n rabbit killer .loves a rat for puddings ( biscuit )

incidently she is 14 yrs old

The key to it working is that rodents like mice and rats cannot vomit/burp and so the CO2 released in the stomach ruptures it.

The only danger is if like us you have a house rabbit in which case it is not pet friendly at all!!!

Exploding rats and mice doesnt sound too pretty to be honest, makes poison sound humane

Hey, Munty, you stole my Silver cat! Unless you stole her double    Mine's the best hunter around, nothing is safe.

She looks like a brilliant creature. We could do with hiring her for a week or two.

Exploding birds whilst flying doesn't bear thinking about... the cities would be on full terror alert LOL!

I know I am late for this one but here goes anyway.  Always put poisons for rats and mice in tubes open at both ends and secure it to the ground.   Then birds, rabbits, cats and dogs,will be safe.   By the way last year I saw some blokes selling Seaculls for a fiver each. I bought one and pointing up to the sky he said ,see that fat one up there,he"s yours.    So take care which sea cull you blow up, he might be my one.

If theres rabbits cats or dogs on my allotment I don't want them to be safe! :twisted:  :twisted:

Better to go out with a bang than a whimper, though, innit ?

This stuff DOES WORK, by the way.  I put some down 3 or 4 days ago in an outside shed which I knew to have resident mice.  Now it stinks attractively of decaying rodent.  The cat has slept for the entire duration & so has not been affected by it.  :roll:

Thanks RR for original post

no its not an old wifes tale
we have found quite by accident (long story) that mice and rats like mars bars and sweets of a simalar nature
we just squash a small piece onto the prong of the trap so they really have to get on to the trap, and heypresto dispached to a chocolate heaven , no better way to go (if you are a mouse that is.)

We have put EVERYTHING we can think of in our traps - the * ignore them.  I've even gone to the lengths of putting bits of date down for a week in advance of putting a trap down, baited with date.  They took the date, oh yes, except when it was on the trap.  They've definitely learned that traps are fatal.

The only success I have had is with home-made pannetone, and even then I think it is because they hadn't yet learned i.e. it was early in autumn.

On the plus side, they don't seem to eat anything or make any mess - no chewed up boxes or nibbles in cupboards, so I'm not really bothered.
