Ven-Trap Rat Bait Station 2 Pack - Rodent Bait Box with Dual Keys - Eliminates Rats Fast. Children and Pet Safe Indoor Outdoor (2 Pack) (Bait not Included)

I've been having trouble with mice getting into my house and raiding my pantry and partying in the attic in the middle of the night. I bought two - two-packs and put one on each side of the exterior of my house with the JT Eaton apple rodent bait/poison. Within a couple nights, the noise stopped and I wasn't getting any evidence of mice. I also haven't found any dead mice or smelled anything dead. Within a week they completely emptied one of the bait stations. As long as I keep these filled they work pretty well. I've noticed that if I leave them for a long time and forget to refill them I get mice again, so they work as a good exterior control method. These things work very well in the weather, they shed rain, and one sat in a puddle but it didn't ruin the bait or damage the station.

I lost the key so I keep it unlocked but it keeps the bait inside out of reach for the kids. Helped me kill several pests. I don’t use the loading thing I just throw the bait in there and it has been efficient for me. I don’t have to worry about my 1 year old niece and 3 year old daughter find the bait touching and eating it

Plastic keys aren’t the best, not sure how long they are going to last especially being out in weather. And why not include couple pieces of bait with item would of made it easier. But thank you

While the boxes seem to be generally the same, the Amazon image for the product shows a raised area in the middle of the box to facilitate access to the bait. The boxes that arrived have much lower clearance and no raised middle section so may dissuade larger rodents from entering.

They seem fine to me, the rats don't seem to like them.
