Tamper-proof rodent bait station

A tamper proof rodent bait station having a base member with first and second compartments divided by a partition, said partition containing openings at each of its ends and forming a baffle that inhibits spillage of bait from the second compartment;

• cover member capable of being secured to said base member by means integral with said bait station;
• said bait station containing apertures which open into the first of said compartments in the interior of the bait station, the apertures marking the ends of an internal passageway extending parallel to said partition and to a wall of the bait station, the improvement comprising:
• the bait station containing two tunnel members, each extending outwardly from a respective aperture on the sides to form a pathway parallel with said wall, and in line with the internal passageway, for the rodents to enter and exit the bait station;
• said base including deflective baffles, each positioned partially and angularly into the passageway for providing security in relation to poisoned bait in the second compartment, while allowing a rodent to traverse the passageway freely and, to obtain line of sight from one side to the other side prior to entering the bait station;
• said deflective baffles providing tamper-proof protection in combination with the tunnel members, whereby, access of hands are prevented from reaching around the deflective baffles into the second compartment on the side closest to the respective tunnel member, and said tunnel members elongating the distance to the second compartment to deny access of hands from reaching through a partition opening located at the opposite side of the bait station.
