That's the key, 50% baking soda. Every other KZread video I've watched says 50%. I reckon that's partly why most of his didn't work, needed more soda as he only used ⅓ (although I'm aware it seemed the critters weren't touching them regardless, so maybe not). I've just put down flour and yeast as got no bicarb atm. Fingers crossed!

I talked to a rodent control guy once who said the leader of the rat pack takes most of the food in the beginning & hoards it. Whether it's poisoned food,, regular food, or plain out rat poison. He'll eat it & when that one dies the others will then start eating what's being found & that's why it takes a bit for you to realize the rats are going & then they're gone. I never seem to have any luck without poison which I hate using so I'll be trying this method. Thank you. My chickens & I pray it works. :)

Thanks Ernie Never seen a rat growing up but the rats came in containers and ships that brought them in. They are nasty forsure but the baking soda seems to keep them in check.

It's also good to use as a guide what you've seen them eating. Rats got into one of our houses due to some bad masonry and we found a few of their food stashes under some cabinets. They'd been stashing dog kibble that my pooches dropped on the floor (word of advice, NEVER leave a dog bowl with food still in it on the floor. Put it in the refrigerator until next feeding). With that in mind, we know they like the brand of kibble-I'm going to crush some up and mix the powder with baking soda and maybe some flour. The smell of that kibble is something they're familiar with, like and won't be put off by. I'll report out my success here.

The only thing that worked for us was getting rid of ALL potential food sources for them-if you can't put it in the fridge or seal it in tupperware, toss it. Then mix up some baking soda and corn muffin mix and set it out. We never detected a smell from a decomposing rat in the home, they may have crawled out into the garage before they died and it was winter-maybe their bodies freeze dried? If a trap works for you, more power to you. All the traps we set out did nothing and we used peanut butter, cheese and even peanut butter cups with chocolate-they're too wary to be lured in by that.

About a year ago, I had a problem with rats getting into my car bonnet every night and chewing off some of the insulation cable and other pieces of plastic. Every morning I would find fresh stools and pieces of food, fish bones, etc. I tried everything I could think of to get rid of them to no avail. Then one morning the car wouldn't start and the lights on the dashboard would not light. I checked the battery, which was about six months old, and to my surprise it was tightly connected as usual, although some of the insulation had been bitten off by the rats. Since it was still under warranty, I took it back to Battery Centre and after trying to recharge it they told me it was completely gone although they couldn't understand how, so they gave me a new one. The mystery is that since that day the rats have never come back. I don't know what keeps them away or what happened to the battery.

Good idea.Thanks.

So I'll try the peanut butter and baking soda. Maybe buy some other traps too. I'm cleaning up poop every damn day.

I've heard that rats are smart and will figure out that what you're doing is killing them; therefore, you just have to change it up from time to time. A lot of variables, probably depends on how hungry and desperate the mice and rats are.

🤣😅 Well I have taken quite a different approach to squirrels. Many seem to have some horrible experiences with squirrels . This is my other channel where I tackle some controversial subjects including squirrels. Take a look at my resolve. Happy New Year kzread.info/dash/bejne/oqCNk6-eY5y4Zso.html

The 1/3 flour 1/3 baking soda 1/3 sugar made all mine disappear.

50-50 buy 1 box of Jiffy Mix and one box Baking Soda. Put 4 teaspoons of each in a container. Mix well and leave. 100% satisfaction. The rodents stomach will bubble up. Rat's and mice cannot burp or fart. Their stomach basically explodes. Will not hurt other animals.

So I've lived in my little isolated Arizona community for 50 years. This past year new people that have moved out here brought something with them, roof rats. Having chickens and parrots make you a target for these new invasive rodents. They chased off or killed all of our native Kangeroo Mice and everything else. I tried ALL of these recipes, none worked. I did humane traps, those work briefly, they catch on real quick and stop going in them. My rats don't like peanut butter but they love apples. You have to figure out what your rats like to eat if you want to get anything into them. They breed like crazy and I was infested inside and out, I had to resort to poison bait. I tried 3 different poison baits all with good reviews, but only one is working and while it does come in peanut butter flavor it also comes in my rat's favorite - apple flavor - JT Eaton 704-AP Block Anticoagulant, Apple Flavor. I break these into small size chunks they can carry off and I've killed coming up on 100 of them. How do I know? Because this poison makes them sick for a day before it kills them, and they come out and just sit there exposed, you can pick them up by the tail and put them in a box and let them finish dying. I have buried all of them, most in mass graves. I still have some rats but not many and they started avoiding the tasty poison bait. So now I'm using Vitamin D3. I'm using tablets I powderize in a pill grinder. Getting enough into them is the trick, I found my rats love scrambled eggs so I use a potato masher to turn my scrambled eggs into crumbles and then mix the D3 powder in it and place in piles in various areas where rats are, they're eating it with no problem. Takes about 4 days after eating enough to kill them so now I'm waiting to see. Search Vitamin D3 kills rats (also search Dry Ice kills rats). See Heart Attack - www.ratrelief.com/how-long-does-it-take-for-rat-poison-to-work/

Mix crushed up Zanaflex with peanut butter, this worked for me.

Rodents like GRAIN ! We don't have any feed stores in our area so I'm going to try instant oatmeal with the fruit bits and baking soda. Wish me luck !

Hi Robin I'm trying the plain cornbread and it's being eaten too 👍

I like using plaster of paris. Sets up in their system. Have mixed it with bread crumbs and sugar. Seems to be working but also going to try the peanut butter idea.

What is it about this mix, how does ot kill rats? Ty

@cindyrobinson2618

From what I have heard, the rodents eat the mixture and when the baking soda hits the stomach acid, it bubbles up. Like when you mix baking soda and vinegar. The rodents can’t get rid of the gas like mammals can and that’s how they die. The “Jiffy” is just to attract the rodents.

Hi Pamela, tried the same mixture but I had no luck with it. Maybe I did not leave it out long enough. Any suggestions would be appreciated 😊

I’m not a rat biology expert, but is there a chance that they’ve just learned to associate the taste of peanut butter with feeling sick? I was reading that the baking powder doesn’t kill all of them, it also makes a percentage of them sick. If that’s so wouldn’t they learn to stay away from that taste? Anyone know?

Works for me but I don't have every kind of vermin either.

Great experiment. Thanks for sharing what worked. I use all kinds of store bought bait. Talon G is fantastic, but can’t get it locally now.

@SteveRobReviews I'm not sure what I have. I've never seen them. But they have 3 inch holes in the ground around my chicken coop. They go underground and have multiple holes.

Half cup corn meal,half cup baking soda, with a table spoon of cake mix. Place in four areas.

I tried a 50/50 mix of baking soda and corn muffin mix and the rats were all over it first night I put it out. I also did a roughly 50/50 mix of baking soda and peanut butter and put some out in various places and that works great too.

@thayne559 I experienced that as well but over time the bait is not eaten as much as it's not the same vermin always eating the bait. For me it took a couple of week and now I don't see any bait taken so either the vermin are gone or they they don't like the bait . I'm thinking the bait worked but it does take time. I also leave the snap traps out as well and I'm not catching anything either . You never get them all but so far I have very little around compared to before.
