Rodent Bait Pipe Keeps Kids, Pets Safe
John Humeniuk has a simple method for killing rats and mice without endangering kids and pets.
  “I use pieces of pipe sized for either mice or rats,” explains Humeniuk. “I drill a hole in the middle of the pipe and slip a wire through and out one end. After I wrap the end of the wire around the bait block, I pull the bait into the pipe.”
  Humeniuk secures the bait in place by simply wrapping the wire around the pipe. Even shaking it won’t release the bait. The bait pipe can then be laid wherever the pests are causing problems. While the pests can access the bait, larger creatures can’t.
  “We lay the bait pipes around the foundations, in our sheds and around tractor tires, anywhere the pests might go,” says Humeniuk.
  He advises checking the internet for different levels of bromethalin, the active ingredient in poison bait. “I like the Top Gun brand with 0.05 percent poison,” says Humeniuk. “It really works great.”
