These are hard to open to stop small children and unwanted animals i.e. dogs/cats from getting to the bait. I don’t know about everyone else the instructions were not needed to figure out how to open it. And for your own protection and liability responsibility do not modify the lock mechanism on the traps. I can’t believe that needs to be said. Anyways great value easy to use if you use your head for more than a hat rack and in my observation they work. Update year later still going strong love them.
Having said that, the bait stations are effective. Once you put bait blocks (sold separately) in the bait station, rodents are definitely attracted to the bait. The effectiveness of the bait varies based on the type, but all types should be effective within a few days.
I placed two of these black boxes which are pet safe for dogs and cats, along the walls of the inside of my garage. The morning after I placed them, I opened the first box and sure enough, two of the tomcat pods had been chewed on. That was Tuesday night they were placed. Wednesday morning I checked the box and saw it nibbled on. I told my wife on Wednesday night that we should expect anytime from Thursday to Sunday, this rat to be dead. I said 1 of 2 things is going to happen, this rat I saw twice, run up to a ceiling rack in my garage as I heard traps going off late at night and I ran over to the garage to check out if they got it. Well, I said it's 1. Going to fall out of one of the racks once this poison takes over. Or 2. It would die in the rack, or perhaps it's on the shelving or somewhere else in the garage at the time it hits it. You never know where those things are because they hide. It's Thursday morning, I hear this scream and I didn't know if my wife was being attacked but within two seconds I realized she was going out to work. The rat had dropped out of the ceiling rack and slid off her SUV as she backed out. Not kidding. I said to her this was best case because we didn't have to be spooked taking things off our ceiling racks and all our shelving searching for a dead rat. I kid you not. It was sitting on our driveway and I scooped it up in to a small box and disposed everything in a sanitary way. So pleased with this stuff. First night, it lured the rat. It says it works off one feeding and after 1-4 days of the feeding. We experienced this all just as it said it would happen. I could not be happier. Two tomcat black boxes and one bucket of this stuff was just over fifty bucks. The cost for an exterminator would have been far more, I have enough of this now for a long time. I am so happy we went after it before it got inside the house by eating through the drywall of the garage and did major damage to wiring etc. It actually in just the first night, had eaten off and shredded the weather sealing on about 6" worth of it, on our door in our garage that leads to the house. Shredded it. It was a panic in the home for a few nights here but this was the perfect remedy and it's addressed. GREAT product!!!!! Follow the directions, couldn't have been easier. In 2 minutes I had the box and poison pods on the rods, all done. It worked EXACTLY as it said it would.
It's a decent sized plastic box - the overall dimensions are about right for outdoor use. It's big enough that it won't blow away in the wind or get lost under snow. And it holds 4 bait blocks, which is plenty. So it gets the job done. I have several nits to pick though:
1) It is nigh on IMPOSSIBLE to open. The supplied key is completely useless. You'll need 2 large flathead screwdrivers or something similar - one to pry it open with and the other to hold it open as you pry a little more. It is unnecessarily difficult to say the least! I get that the point is to keep kids and pets from gaining access to poison, but c'mon... Can't they come up with a better design that that?
2) Bait blocks not included. Which makes this a little bit expensive, considering it is really just a plastic box.
3) It includes 4 metal rods, which can hold the bait blocks in a vertical position and keep them from falling out if the box gets jostled. That's great, but my bait blocks (despite being Tomcat brand) are not drilled with holes to receive the rods. The picture on the box indicates that Tomcat does make drilled bait blocks, but I don't know where to buy them. So for me, the rods are pretty much useless.
