Abstract
A packaged rodenticidal bait comprises a soft bait composition enrobed in a perforated thermoplastic film, wherein the soft bait composition comprises a blend of at least one edible fat, at least one particulate food component and at least one rodenticidally-active substance. Preferably, the thermoplastic film comprises one or more polyolefins. The perforated film used in the manufacture of the packaged bait according to the invention does not absorb fat, unlike conventionally-used paper sachets. The packaged bait composition of the invention is palatable to rodents such that rodents may take a lethal dose of a rodenticide from the bait in a single sitting.
