MouseX 1lb Bag, All-Natural Poison Free, Effective Against All Species of Rats and Mice - EcoClear Products

Works really well. Had it up for only a few days and it was a big hit with the mice. The mice dehydrate and dry up. I have seen them outside around the yard. I used peanut butter powder to coat them.

The one thing that I hate about living on a farm are the mice. Dear Lord the mice! I feel like we're in a constant uphill battle against mice at all times. They're wiley, too, and often manage to eat peanut butter off the traps without the benefit of dying in the process. I finally broke down and bought this product figuring I really didn't have much to lose. I've been hesitant to use bait for the safety of our dogs BUT these are safe for use around pets so we gave it a shot. After reading a ton of other reviews I did opt to dust the bait with peanut butter powder which worked GREAT (just spray the inside of a ziploc sandwich bag with cooking spray, fill the bag half full with pellets, and shake to coat with spray; then open the bag back up, put in a few teaspoons of peanut butter powder, and shake again to coat the pellets)!!! We put small paper plates down in various places with pellets on them and waited. The plates in the garage were completely empty the next day, which was both impressive and horrifying at the same time (how many mice do we have???). Any plates that were empty got replenished...and we continued to wait. The feasting tapered off after the first day or two, which was this past weekend....it's now Wednesday and mouse evidence has greatly diminished. We've had a few very sickly looking mice on glue traps (I know people complain about glue traps being inhumane but I honestly just don't care anymore) the last 24 hrs, which is nice as that means less dying in the walls and whatnot. I say all of the above for this purpose...if you're at your wits end and/or being overrun by mice, give the product a shot (order cheap PB powder at the same time). It's working for us. Good luck!

This did not work when used as directed because the mice wouldn't even eat it. I had been overrun with mice at my previous residence and I like to try to keep the stray cats, wildlife and other things that feed on mice safe from secondary poisoning. I got this stuff because I had heard a lot of good things about it from friends and at $20 it was worth it to try to get my problem under control once and for all. Well, these same mice who were not discerning in the least and would eat bars of soap, repellent sachets, trash, and even chew on chicken bones in the middle of the night would not touch this stuff for love nor money. It's almost like they knew it had something in it that would dry them up and dehydrate them. I even tried mixing it with peanut butter and they just ate around it and left the pellets. I ended up spending ten more dollars at the local feed store and bought the green blocks that actually poisoned them to death. I had no mice within three days on the competitor product and I hoped like the dickens that I didn't find any dead owls, hawks, my friendly little garden snakes, or stray cats from eating mice who had eaten the poison. It's a great idea in theory but my suggestion would be to make these in some kind of a flavor that will actually entice the mice. For some reason, as I said, I had to go with an actual poison product that actually was infused with something to attract them and make them eat it. This just did not do the job, and I am sorry about that.

I’m not sure as to how this is supposed to work, but it isn’t working.

I bought this years ago and it did seem to work somewhat because I found dried up mouse bodies. Then they stopped eating the pellets. I put them in a dish with cornmeal and after several days they ate the cornmeal, but not the pellets. Today I ground up some pellets in a coffee grinder and put it in my cats friskies which the mice like in areas they can reach, but not my cats. I will also grind some pellets into a powder and put the in cornmeal and see how that works out. Baking soda mixed with cornmeal kills them but then you deal with the smell of decomposing little bodies. Peanut butter mixed with the pellets did not work for me, but I may try the powdered pellets again. I don't intend to use the coffee grinder for anything else other than mousex. I will also get an exterminator to seal up the outside entrances. We have an outbreak of rodents because of construction in the area. The health Dept wants to fine people who feed birds which will do nothing to alleviate the issue. They need to pass an ordinance to putt up ways to contain mice instead of disrupting their habitats causing them to move to private homes.

This is my second season using RatX (same MouseX) With trial and error, I have figured out a way that works for my local mice and rats (in the hills of coastal CA). I even asked AI to explain scientifically why my hack works despite going against the label. Originally, I just set out the pellets plain. Nothing. Then I rubbed it in peanut butter. The rodents licked off the PB. Now this is the hack which worked for me: I crush the pellets (they should start selling it this way) into a coarse/grainy size, the mix a little softened PB so it becomes a paste. Then I go outside and put little spoonfuls of the paste onto random leaves in my yard. The rodents eat ALL of it. How do I know it’s not raccoons or birds? Because I place the leaves under small areas where birds and raccoons cannot get to. The gross part: A few days later, I see trails of ants which signals to me that they have found a carcass. What I like about RatX is that it is just corn meal and salt. It dehydrates the mouse so it’s not toxic poison. Actually, on one occasion my small dog ate some before I could hide the leaf. She was fine—not toxic to pets. RatX is a great option for me because I live near a forest and don’t want to risk contaminating nature, the soil, native critters including hawks and owls.
