 you can mix   flour / sugar / bicarb of soda    in equal parts   keep it dry in little ziplock bags  nailed to a post so they tare open    and let them have it  does not kill anything else only rats and mice  

Does that work? Sounds ideal if it does 👍

yes  within a couple of hours dead   rats and mice dont have the ability to burp or ****  so safe around other animals  if they get some on fur and preen job done 

or boil up rubarb leaves and the pink bit at the bottom and steep some corn in the juice  do not use that pot for anything else  or throw away after

I can't help but be sceptical of this-if this really works why do people buy rat and mouse poison? I know what does work as mouse bait though- ritz crackers with the fake cheese filling. I put a humane trap down and it was 20 minutes later the trap had a mouse in it, he was busily licking the cheese filling and then his paws!

Hello, I am going to try this, also if you want to make a solid version a bit of plaster of Paris, it's the bicarb that effects the rats

Hello, after making some up like a pancake mix using milk so it has not effected the Bi Carb I poured into an ice cube tray and put in freezer box, if it don't kill em they will have a nice lolly 🙄😁 still have most of the powder mix to try as well, give it a go tomorrow,

Bicarb mixed in to any left over fishing ground bait also works. Or in just bit of brown or white crumb Squirt of fish/ hemp oil, molasses or bit of additive masks bicarb the same and attracts them to it. Any non maze based livestock meal to. Still keep it covered and inacessable to any other critters pets and livestock.  Ants don't like bicarb either.   NB
