As the weather cools, rodents—especially rats and mice—begin migrating indoors in search of warmth, shelter, and food. Whether you're managing a farm, operating a food facility, or simply trying to protect your home, rodent infestations pose serious threats to property, health, and operational integrity. From gnawed wiring and structural damage to food contamination and disease transmission, even a small infestation can lead to major problems if left unchecked.
However, for households with pets or farms with livestock, rodent control introduces another challenge: how to eliminate rodents without endangering non-target animals. Many conventional rodenticides carry a significant risk of accidental poisoning—not just for pets, but also for birds of prey, working dogs, and farm animals.
At POMAIS Agriculture, we specialize in pet-safe rodenticide solutions that combine proven efficacy with minimized toxicity. Our products are trusted by families, veterinarians, and farm managers around the world, delivering reliable control without compromising safety.
In this guide, you’ll learn how to:
Recognize early signs of rat or mouse activity
Implement effective prevention methods to block rodent entry
Choose baits, traps, and delivery systems designed to eliminate infestations without harming pets or livestock
Whether you're dealing with seasonal mouse activity in a rural shed or managing year-round rodent pressure in agricultural facilities, our science-backed solutions help you stay rodent-free—safely and responsibly.
Rodents are nocturnal, elusive, and often go unnoticed—until the damage is done. Early detection is critical for controlling infestations before they escalate, and knowing whether you're dealing with rats or mice can help you choose the most appropriate trap or baiting solution.
Here are the key indicators to watch for:
Mice leave small, dark, rice-grain-shaped pellets—typically 3–7 mm long, often scattered around food storage or under sinks.
Rats produce larger, thicker droppings (10–20 mm), commonly found in attics, basements, or near walls.
Rodents constantly gnaw to control tooth growth. Look for:
Gnawed electrical wires, plastic pipes, cardboard, or storage containers
Teeth marks along wooden beams, feed bags, or stored goods
Chew damage is not only destructive—it’s a fire hazard in facilities where cables are exposed.
Spotting a single mouse or rat is often just the tip of the iceberg. Rodents are social creatures and rarely travel alone.
Listen for scratching noises in walls or ceilings, especially at night.
Tracks or smear marks along walls and baseboards may also indicate repeat rodent traffic.
Mice often use shredded paper, fabric, or insulation to build nests in hidden areas.
Rats may dig visible burrows outside buildings, especially near garbage areas, water sources, or compost piles.
The earlier you identify these signs, the better your chances of controlling the problem before it becomes a large-scale infestation.
At POMAIS, we recommend conducting a full site inspection before applying rodenticide. This ensures correct bait placement, helps determine population size, and allows you to choose the safest, most effective product for your site.
Effective rodent control begins with prevention. Even the most powerful bait or trap will fail if rodents can freely enter and find food or shelter. Whether you’re managing a residential home, livestock operation, warehouse, or feed storage facility, implementing basic exclusion and sanitation practices can significantly reduce the risk of infestation.
Rodents are incredibly flexible—mice can squeeze through gaps as small as 6 mm. Conduct a thorough inspection around:
Doors and window frames
Foundation cracks and utility penetrations
Vent openings and drainage pipes
Use steel wool, metal mesh, or rodent-proof caulk to seal openings. Avoid foam or soft fillers, which rodents can chew through.
Rodents are opportunistic feeders. To reduce attraction:
Keep pet food, livestock feed, and grains in airtight, rodent-resistant containers
Avoid using cardboard packaging for long-term storage
Regularly clean up spilled feed or stored produce, especially in sheds and feed rooms
Cluttered environments provide nesting material and hiding spaces. Implement routine cleaning protocols:
Remove cardboard boxes, old wood, or unused materials that can harbor rodents
Sweep and mop storage and kitchen areas frequently
Fix leaks and eliminate standing water to cut off hydration sources
Maintain clear perimeters around buildings:
Trim vegetation near walls and foundations
Mow tall grass in surrounding areas
Store firewood or hay at least 30 cm off the ground and away from buildings
Preventive steps like these don't require chemical intervention and can significantly reduce reliance on rodenticides over time. At POMAIS, we always recommend starting with prevention to reduce baiting frequency and improve overall control efficiency.
Effective rodent control doesn’t have to compromise the safety of pets or livestock. At POMAIS, we offer a range of targeted rodenticide solutions—each designed to match the specific needs of your environment, from small household infestations to large-scale farm and warehouse scenarios.
Snap traps, electronic traps, and live capture cages are suitable for controlling low rodent populations indoors. However:
They are less effective in high-pressure or outdoor infestations.
They must be used cautiously around pets to prevent accidental injury.
Frequent monitoring is required to maintain control.
In environments with consistent rodent activity or larger infestations, chemical control is essential.
For serious infestations in commercial, agricultural, and high-infestation zones, Brodifacoum delivers unmatched efficacy. As a single-feed, second-generation anticoagulant, it is highly potent—effective even where resistance to other active ingredients exists.
Key Features of POMAIS Brodifacoum Baits:
Single-feed lethal dose: Eliminates rodents after one feeding, reducing bait consumption and exposure duration
High palatability: Formulated in wax block or pellet form for superior uptake
Prolonged action: Effective even in areas with high rodent pressure or bait shyness
Weather-resistant formulation: Designed for outdoor and industrial use
Recommended Uses:
Grain and food storage facilities
Industrial warehouses and logistics hubs
Farms with large rodent populations
Sewer systems, irrigation channels, and processing plants
Safety Note: Brodifacoum is extremely effective but must be used responsibly. Always place bait inside tamper-resistant bait stations to restrict access by pets, non-target wildlife, or children. Follow all label instructions and observe proper withdrawal periods for livestock areas.
By combining POMAIS Brodifacoum Baits with secure bait stations, you ensure high-level rodent elimination while maintaining control over placement and exposure—offering both professional strength and safety assurance.
Second-generation rodenticides such as Brodifacoum are among the most potent tools available for rodent control. Their single-feed lethality and long-lasting efficacy make them the preferred solution in high-infestation zones, resistant populations, and commercial-scale operations. However, with such power comes the need for careful handling—particularly in areas where pets, livestock, or wildlife may be present.
The primary concern with Brodifacoum lies not in the bait itself, but in the risk of secondary poisoning—for example, when a pet consumes a rodent that has ingested the bait. Unlike first-generation anticoagulants, Brodifacoum persists longer in rodent tissues. This doesn’t mean it’s unsafe—but it does require controlled use protocols.
To use Brodifacoum safely:
Always place bait in tamper-proof stations that restrict access to non-target animals.
Position bait stations away from areas frequently accessed by pets.
Monitor rodent activity and remove dead rodents promptly to reduce secondary exposure risk.
Educate farm workers or residents on safe zones and handling instructions.
At POMAIS, our Brodifacoum baits are engineered with:
Bittering agents to deter non-target consumption
Moisture-resistant formulations for extended use in damp, outdoor environments
OEM labeling options that include pet-use disclaimers and multilingual safety guidance
Choose Brodifacoum when:
You’re dealing with rodent resistance to first-generation products
Large-scale infestations threaten stored grain, warehouse stock, or feed
Speed and bait efficiency are critical, especially in high-traffic rodent zones
Used responsibly and strategically, Brodifacoum is not only effective—it’s also compatible with pet-sensitive environments when deployed in accordance with safety protocols.
Choosing the right rodent control strategy is about more than just picking a bait—it’s about selecting a reliable partner who understands both efficacy and safety.
