No, it does not. Catnip is similar to Valerian, which rats also love. They love Valerian enough to walk into traps baited with Valerian. Catnip has a lesser effect on them, but it definitely does not deter them.
Ammonia has a very strong odor. It will deter rodents, including mice and rats. It is a more natural deterrent than poisons.
Yeah, but they won't eat it because of the smell.
by definition ld50 is when 50% survive or dead,,answer will be 5 if i count well
Probably, the smell and the rats deter most people. It makes the land values less, too.
I have heard of several: Crown Imperial - a bulb to be planted in the fall, the bulb smells like a skunk and is said to repel rats and deer. Catmint/Catnip, Spearmint and Peppermint - Either plant the plant or use the dried leaves. The live plants are supposed to be better. I am planting it all and hopefully one will work - I have a horrible field rat problem.
It generally takes a few days. Try giving them another dose.
Rats may be attracted to your home due to the availability of food, water, and shelter. Common attractants include garbage, pet food left outside, cluttered areas, and easy access points such as gaps or holes in walls. Making your home less appealing to rats by removing these attractants can help deter them.
To prevent rats from eating your plants in the garden, you can try using physical barriers like wire mesh or fencing, keeping the garden clean and free of food sources, and using natural repellents like peppermint oil or predator urine. Regularly inspecting the garden for signs of rats and taking prompt action can also help deter them.
D-con is a poison only-not a deterrent. Poison inside could result in 1 dead inside somewhere you can't reach. Your best bet interior is traps.
It can be in a large enough dose. Decon is actually not a poison per say but a blood thinner. People take blood thinners and live it just has to be a regulated dose. Rats are easy to poison because they cannot physically vomit. They eat the high dose blood thinner and bleed out.
Rats may follow you to your new home if they can gain access to transportation or find their way there through scent trails. Prevention measures like sealing entry points and keeping a clean environment can help deter rats from moving to your new home.
To effectively get rid of rat holes in your yard, you can start by sealing off any entry points and hiding spots for rats. Use steel wool or wire mesh to block holes and gaps in walls or fences. Additionally, consider setting up traps or using rodenticides to eliminate existing rats. Regularly clean up food sources and clutter in your yard to deter rats from returning.
