Roshield External Tamper Proof Rodent Bait Box & Wax Block

Having problems with rats they have been eating the bait don’t really know if working as can’t see any evidence of dead rodents as bit early to tell good value for the money cheaper then getting professional in no missing items recommend this produc

One part of the second box was missing – the metal ‘skewer’ to hold the poison. Contacted the manufacturers, no reply whatsoever. Needed to use the first box immediately so couldn’t return.

After leaving a review, the manufacturer sent the missing parts so stars increased. I will add that a professional came round to assess and said he couldn’t leave me better than this product.

This was bought to get rid of mice/rats from a garden shed. The product had good instructions and was easy to set up. Hopefully it will work and solve the problem.

The quality when we opened the package was very convincing. It has the Commercial sturdiness and safety features. Also what we appreciated was clear instructions that came with the product, It was detailed and very clear on health and safety. I was also impressed with the email that followed, asking if the delivery and product arrived, phone number to call with any concerns. I completely recommend this company (seller), especially with the concern of how to use, make contact, etc.

My neighbours have a big plot that is full of rats. During the lockdown summer they moved one fence panel and all of a sudden we had dozens of huge rats strolling boldly across our garden, and attacking our tortoise.

I quickly bought these bait boxes, and the waxed bait. Then, I just kept typing them up with more and more. Eventually, the bait was lasting longer, until it got to a point where not much was being nibbled.

However, as the boxes are easy enough to hide away, I’ve continued to top them up over the last 2 years. We’ve only had one rat that died in our garden, the rest went home to die.

Day one, snared one!

Have had a rodent issue for a while now, hearing the pitter-pater of feet inside the home in various places. Snap traps with inviting treats did nothing, except see the treats taken away – along with extra bait. Found myself wanting to ‘see’ something by the way of ‘action’!

Bought these boxes and filled with bait along the rod. Also added a trap in each for extra effect. Within 24 hours there was a ruckus, and one box had snared a rodent. Instantly happy, albeit regretful of the situation. But it was finally helpful to see some positive news out of an otherwise negative and annoying situation. Work in progress!

You’ve got rats? You’ve got a choice. You can do as I did and opt for the first ‘local’ pest controller you can find, after learning the council doesn’t ‘do’ rats in the garden. Or you can buy two of these for a song. The Pied Piper’s… Do the maths. It might have been cheaper the fly the rats first class back to Hamelin. I paid 294 for a national company (don’t be fooled by the initially local number listed and called – because that will vanish faster than the rats do after booking and a subsequent search) to sub contract to a West Lothian based (only local if you’re in West Lothian) who then deployed a truly local pest controller who turned up a day early, then returned to confirm what I already knew, there are rats under our shed, and a rat run adjacent to the garden fence, and place three bait boxes -IDENTiCAL to these sold, one even bearing the same brand name – along the ratty line of play. You then wait two weeks for his return – around three days after the stated date which means you’ve waited in, called and got no response from West Lothian sub contractors, then tried the belatedly ‘live’ chat at the national booking site – to be told that rats have taken the bait. Or at least you hope they have because there are nibble marks around the bite in two of the boxes – so long as they weren’t there before. – and you did see and hear one rate within the bait box. You also caught three and two mice with humane traps bought on Amazon but that’s another story.. You are offered the option of additional bait boxes for nests for 50 each plus VAT and a disposal charge. Rats don’t just come on four legs. It’s a rip off. So what have I learned? To invest in four of these, additional baits and containers, and, if you don’t want to kill rodents, invest in the humane option – however, I’d advise great caution with that one given the diseases rats carry and how nimble they are, and aggressive when trapped. Mice are much easier to release. The two I caught were still cleaning their whiskers when I went to pick up the traps. Whereas rats were visiting their mates and plotting their release. A trail camera picked all that up. Other tips – I closed off around the base of the shed – although it would have to go 12 in deep to be truly effective – and sprayed peppermint spray, garlic, and white vinegar around ratty hot spots. It deterred a few humans, too, no bad thing in pandemic. These bait stations are exactly what my over priced experts used – and at least I know that the bait was untouched when I put it in place. They are easy to unlock, bait, lock and place. Use gloves for placing the bait and the boxes. Good luck.

My order came on time, before receiving,I received an email with full instructions which I thought was really good, it was easy to prepare very good instructions. I never had a rat problem, so I was shocked even more so when it appeared under my fruit trees, we put one either side of the garden, weighted down as recommended. We had tried, onion, baby powder as I was told. It didn’t appear for two days, we had taken down the bird feeders that kept me sane as I’m on lockdown due to ill health. It appeared and demolished my flowerbed, so we put the hose on. I left security light on so I knew if anything arrived during the night. On checking the boxes almost all the bait had gone, and the other one 2 had been eaten. This is a safer way of dealing with this problem. I thoroughly recommend this company, its been 2 days again since we’ve seen our visitor. My neighbours either side saw it in his garden and around the front of our properties. It could be because the refuse hasn’t been collected since Covid-19. I will now keep these baited up even if we don’t see any think. Thank you for the service you haven given.

We live in a rural area so Roland rat is a constant worry. I feed the birds and most of the time we are rat free. However, a couple of rats started appearing to feed on the small amounts of fallen bird seed.
I stopped feeding the birds and set a couple of spring loaded traps. These proved ineffective so I ordered 2 Roshield bait boxes and bait. The bait is easy to use and thread. We have dogs so containing the bait is important.
One box was placed under the hedge the other on a bank in the hedge. We saw the rats around the visible box and on later inspection it appeared that none of the bait had been taken. The box in the hedge had bait missing and so far no further sighting of Roland and his buddy. Fingers crossed.
Would have given 5 stars but do not want to tempt providence!
