The Big Cheese Rat and Mouse Poison, 10 g- Rodent Killer
The Big Cheese Rat and Mouse Poison, 10 g- Rodent Killer, Rat Poisoning Blocks, Blue, 30 Count ( Pack of 1)
Don’t forget your bait station
It is a legal requirement to use a bait station when baiting mice and rats.
The Big Cheese Rat & Mouse Bait Station is a compact tamper-resistant bait station with a lockable lid which helps protect children, birds and non-target animals from contact with bait.
Easy-to-use, durable design suitable for indoor and outdoor use – this bait station can be used over and over again.
Prior to treatment: Remove all known sources of food from the infested area.
Treatment: Place your chosen bait inside the bait station, lock and place where there are signs of rodent activity (fresh droppings, nests or burrows, runways and feeding places).
Secure bait station in place where possible and keep the key in a safe place away from the bait station when in use.
Disposal of rodents: Rodents should be double-bagged using plastic bags and either disposed of in a household waste bin with a secure lid to prevent access of wildlife or pets, collected by a specialist waste contractor, or the local authority.

After seeing a rat on my doorstep CCTV I bought one of these stations and loaded it up with rat poison.
Monitoring my CCTV daily I realised that the rat must have been tipped off and never did come back to try my special dish. A bit disappointed really 🙁
About 6 gardens have seen rats bought this so we could put in all areas they have been seen next doors posion as all gone so hopefully rest will go and the rats aswell
My go to supply. Easy to use and not messy – though handle using gloves. Rats seem to find it irressistable and initally nibble a bit then come back and finish off a whole bait box – it does need to be in a petproof bait box.
Takes about 2 weeks for the rats to take the bait . Then 20 blocks went over the course of a few days . Haven’t seen 1 since so I’m taking it there all dead in the nest . Still got my bait boxes out & rat traps just incase but no sign of them being nibbled at .
Seems to work a treat. Placed around garden in bait containers. Checked bait after 6 days . This had all been taken except for one well nibbled piece. No sightings of rat seen since . Job done hopefully!
This is the third time I’ve bought these, last resort to use my bait boxes loaded with these as have tried ‘deterrents’ like peppermint oil sprays (chicken run, garden fences, chicken coop exterior all smell great but seems to attract rats more than repel) and even our rat hating Cockapoo only spooks them temporarily…….
These blocks really are excellent, totally irresistible to rats & mice. Since starting to use them this time have ‘culled’ 2 (worryingly large) adult rats and just now found a juvenile who also couldn’t resist these blocks !
Buy with confidence but use bait boxes to keep them away from wild birds, pets, poultry etc !!
Within a week we didn’t see another rat in the garden (they come for the bird food) and I was so pleased. I’ll buy again if or when they come back
As per the title really. I found mouse droppings, so cleared them up, then I put some of this in a bait box, and left it nearby. When I checked it a few days later all the bait was gone and I’ve not seen any signs of the mice since.
Good service I like using the drop box suits me best , sometimes you need more but keep going it will kill them the rat man told me if they are eating it they are dying.
It seems that after dropping a few of these under the floorboards every few days for a month, we are finally rid of whatever was running around down there every night.
Unfortunately mice have invaded my home, through a crack I think which has appeared in the kitchen cupboard floor (house old and Foundations shifting)
As for the product, the Bait poison, the mice stated gnawing at it (in bait station boxes within hours and just 5 hours after putting it out I found some had been eaten already and I saw a mouse in the Kitchen corner dying and having neurological spasms like he was drunk, caught easily and disposed of outside
I cannot recommend this enough for speed of how fast it starts to kill the mice and it’s clearly very tasty and enticing to them
I don’t think any of the rat poison that is onsale to the UK public today will bring you the instant results you would like. However, after enough of these blocks are consumed the rats will be gone. Not sure that this could be called humane but…
After having some home renovations a mouse or 6 got into our attic . Attic isn’t accessible in all areas but coul hear it scampering about sending the dogs crazy ! Couldn’t use traditional traps so was advised by pest control to get these and throw about the attic . 36 hrs later no noise ! Attic was checked as much as possible , evidence of mice had been there but no sign of a mouse now dead or alive !
Not much to say. I have a rat problem, rats have been appearing at the bottom of the garden. I have been using this poison in bate boxes and touch wood it seems to have worked. It has taken quite a few weeks for them to disappear and I am not certain if they have gone yet but out of sight is out of mind as far as I am concerned. I would say it has taken 4-5 weeks for them to stop showing up and I still have bait boxes out just in case. This bait is easy to handle and seems durable, it definitely gets eaten by the rats and I would recommend it to anyone.
Addendum2: As I say below, the rats at the allotment love them, but they keep coming back for more. Over 2 weeks I used 2 packets and still they came! I then put down more powerful ones, and within a few days they seem to have gone – these are good at establishing a feeding pattern, but then introducing a more powerful one may finish them off… The power full one is no longer available, but gives an idea of the strength that may be needed if the population is large, the higher the Brodifacoum the more potent it is:
Pesteq Advanced Rat Poison Block Bait (15 x 20g Blocks) Kills in Single Feed Max Strength Formula – Brodifacoum Fast Acting Rodent Control (300g)
ADDENDUM: the rats at the allotment love them, and after using a whole box it seemed that they’d been finished off. But then they came back and now their poo is blue suggesting that it has passed through them but not killed them (yet) OR there may be rats that are somehow immune to the poison. So, I am now putting out some of these coupled with a version that is maximum strength and is supposed to finish them off after one meal. I feel bad about this because I am a vegetarian, so may go back to live and let live policy that I’ve had for 10 years – they gained my ire because they got into my potato sacks and nearly destroyed the lot; also, every year they dig up my seedlings in the green house.
I notice that quite a number of folk indicate that the rats love to eat these treats; they certainly do, during the past 10 days I have loaded up 3 of the blocks and find that they have disappeared by the next day. That’s an entire box gone in just over a week. I began to think that they were so tasty that rats from all over the allotment were coming each day to feast on them. I bought a second box wondering how much longer this was going to go on… But, today the block were untouched, suggesting that they have all been finished off. We have had torrential rain and flooding on the plots, so the rats may have set up camp somewhere else for the moment. I have a box ready to continue the treatment if necessary, and I’ve also bought a stronger version if the invasion continues. I shall report again if I have to use any more blocks, so if there’s no addendum to this be reassured that THEY WORKED!
I had mice in my shed and rats living under it so I bought this to try and kill them. As far as I can tell it worked as after a few applications the bait stopped being eaten and the mouse traps were no longer triggered.
I left some cubes there just incase of a future problem and found that they were slowly being eaten by slugs based on the slime trails converging on them and the gradual disappearance. Not a big problem but it is worth keeping in mind when placing these.
Also note that they have a pleasant chocolate like smell so be very careful to keep them away from children.
It appears to be the same poison that my local authorities rat catcher uses. I’ve put down 4 batches of bait and all have been taken – and I haven’t seen rats in my garden for a couple of days. Time will tell. I used a technique that the rat catcher-Environmental Health pest control officer- told me about. Rats love fats and I left a couple of blocks of bait in empty Lurpack/ Anchor contaners. I rolled them around in the residual ” fats” and then ” hid” them away from neighbours’ cats and wild birds. All were taken. So either the poison will get the rats, or they’ll die of obesity. Don’t spread this…..
it’s very good the mice love it but they don’t come back until the Finchley do I put a piece down each corner of my house and round the kitchen out of sight every couple of days I go looking for them and they might go or a peace might be missing that’s how I know it’s working so well and I see no droppings but I need to buy some more and buy a much bigger packe
…or the rats decided to move home, one or the other, but I’ll go with the former.
I didn’t use a bait trap with this as the traps can cost as much, if not more, than the actual rat poison.
What I did was use an old length of drainpipe which we had spare in the shed, about 3 feet long (a metre for the youngsters). I drilled a small hole at each end and passed a piece of wire through the pipe securing at both ends in the drilled holes.
The poison blocks come preformed with a hole in the middle so several of these were threaded along the wire inside the pipe, and the pipe then left along the ‘rat run’.
Checked every day, and after a few days the blocks were being chewed.
Eventually, after about a week, they weren’t touched any more and there were no sightings of rats.
Job done.
As a precaution, wear gardening gloves or disposable gloves when handling the blocks and dispose of the remnants safely afterwards. Plus, wash your hands!
