There are several types of rat poison on the market with different forms of action. It is important to know this information since the correct choice of poison depends on the degree of infestation.
There are three types of rat poison on the market
1. From bromethalin. Designed for use outdoors or in commercial applications such as warehouses and plants. Bromethalin is a highly lethal, fast-acting poison that usually kills rats within a day or two after feeding, the use of these types of rodenticides is not highly recommended due to their danger. 2. Based on vitamins. Their job is to overwhelm the system with vitamin D, causing them to absorb large amounts of calcium into the blood. Excess calcium causes kidney failure, slow pulse, and muscle weakness that ultimately leads to death. 3. Anticoagulant. Designed to eradicate rats by preventing blood coagulation. The benefit of this type of rat poison is that the rodents often return to the bait more than once. This allows them to carry food back to their nest, providing more effective pest control. After 3 days, the poison begins to take effect and they die, leaving a desiccated body, thus avoiding the pestilence. Remember that, regardless of the poison you choose, you must keep it out of the reach of children and pets, with the help of Control Stations (feeders) that are little boxes that prevent anyone other than rats from consuming the poison.
