Protecta Landscape Rat Bait Station

The product I want to highlight today is the Protecta Landscape Bait Station (buy now).  The thing that sets this tamper-resistant bait station apart from others is that Bell Laboratories designed it especially to look like just another rock and blend with outdoor settings.  The Protecta Landscape Bait Station is really ideal for those who might have rodent problems but also don’t want their bait stations to stick out like a sore thumb and scream “WE HAVE RATS!”   This bait station presents a tasteful and aesthetically pleasing way to bait for rats.

The Protecta Landscape Bait Station can hold up to 1 oz. rat bait blox inside on  four vertical bait-securing rods inside and a Trapper T-Rex rat snap trap.

Dead Fly Art

This is a bit bizarre but I have been seeing this dead art fly all over the internet lately.  It first came to my inbox in a forwarded email under the subject  “What To Do When You’re Bored At Work”, followed by these three steps:

1) Kill a few flies.

2) Put them in the sun to dry for one hour.

3) Grab a pencil and paper and let your imagination flow.

This might be just the thing for some workplace excitement except that I still can’t get over the fact that I am looking at crusty fly carcasses in these pictures.  I did happen to do a little research and found out that these unique little masterpieces are the very original creation of photographer Mangus Muhr.

Mini T-Rex Mouse Trap

Like the larger T-Rex Rat Trap, the Mini T-Rex Mouse Trap (buy now)  is the only mouse trap with patented and powerful interlocking teeth making it virtually impossible for mice to escape.  Not that they could attempt it anyway since the speed and responsiveness of the Mini T-Rex Mouse Trap ensure not only successful but deadly capture of mice.

Despite its power the Mini T-Rex Mouse Trap is actually easier and safer to use than traditional snap traps. You don’t even have to use your hands to set it. To use this trap you can simply place it on a ‘mouse runway’ (typically near walls) and set it with a tap of your foot.

Additional features of the Mini T-ReMouse Trap include strategically placed holes in  the base which allow the trap to be tied to pipes or beams that mice use as highways, and a bait cup in the middle of the trigger pedal for mouse bait placement.

Keep rodents out with STUF-FIT Copper Mesh

Has your home become the neighborhood hang out for rodents such as mice, rats, squirrels, birds or other wildlife?  Even more effective than choosing the right bait or trap to remove unwanted rodents is keeping them out in the first place.

Rodents – particularly mice and rats – can squeeze through pretty small spaces.  If you have any holes or cracks in your roof or foundation that may be invitation enough for rodents to enter in and throw a block party.  One of the most important steps to keeping rodents out of your home is to seal up those holes and cracks with a rodent-proof seal.

To accomplish this, Do My Own Pest Control highly recomends STUF-FIT Copper Mesh for rodent exclusion.

STUF-FIT Copper Mesh (buy now)  is a tightly woven stain-proof and rust-proof material that is designed to withstand even the most persistent rodent gnawing.  This product comes in a roll  and is designed to literally be “stuffed” into holes and cracks to create a seal. Our customers report excellent results with this product.

Have a question about STUF-FIT? Ask a pest control expert.

To create a very tight rodent-proof seal, STUF-FIT Copper Mesh can also be used in conjunction with Pur Black Foam (buy now), a product used widely by roofers, contractors, wildlife control specialists, and pest control professionals.  Pur Black Foam acts as a fill-in caulking agent that deters not only pests from entering, but water, gas and smoke. You can also sand and paint over it if desired.

For further rodent-proofing information, here is a great article: How To Rodent Proof Your Home.

*Stuf-fit works best in holes and cracks around 2 inches in diameter. Larger holes should be repaired and sealed permanently.

New and Improved DMOPC Website

So have you guys visited the Do My Own Pest Control website lately? I logged on as usual early Saturday morning and was pleasantly surprised to find that the face lift I had been hearing about for so long had magically taken place over night. Go check it out!  I happen to know that the Big Bosses at DMOPC have been hard at work for over a year now to create a  new website that is more user friendly. I was not aware of all the changes that would be taking place but was very excited as I browsed the website to find so many awesome new features.

The main highlights include:

* The ability to Shop by Pest , Shop by Product , or Shop by Manufacturer.

* A Pest Photo Library featuring some of the most common household pests (to help you identify your pest quickly) along with photos of the recommended control products for your specific pest.

*Our popular Pest Control Kits are now easily found all on one page. These kits have been specially put together by our pest control experts according to the target pest so that you have everything you need in one convenient package. It is always cheaper to purchase a kit than each product individually.

*A Pest Control Product Q&A Section where you can browse hundreds of question already asked by real customers, or ask one of your own! We know that many of our customers are new to do-it-yourself pest control and naturally have questions about the safety or application of certain products.  These questions are typically answered by one of our pest control experts in just a couple of business days.

* Testimonials -  Don’t take our word for it! Here you can browse pages of testimonials from previous DMOPC customers who have come back after ordering with us to share about their experience. You can also Add Your Own Testimonial.

* Find a Pest Control Product Labels or MSDS -This feature allows you to easily locate the product label or MSDS for a given pest control products.

The Live Catch Mouse Trap

For those who desire a way to get rid of mice without having to poison or kill them,  live catch mouse traps are a great option for mouse control.

Buy Live Catch Traps now.

There are many models, shapes, and sizes of live catch mouse traps available.  The basic idea with all of them is that instead of mice being lured to their death, they are instead lured by a non-toxic bait or mouse attractant into a holding area where they remain unharmed until you release them.  

Live catch mouse traps are  also called multiple-catch mouse traps  because they generally hold several mice, usually between 15 and 30 depending on the size of the mouse.

Mice prefer Provoke Mouse Attractant 10 to 1.

Did you know that Provoke Mouse Attractant  (buy now) is the only attractant on the market designed specifically for mice?  Mice love this stuff because it incorporates the tastes and smells of their favorite foods. 

In recent field studies scientists placed several cases of mouse traps. Half of the traps were baited with Provoke Attractant and half with peanut butter, a well-known mouse favorite.  After only one hour, the mice caught by the Provoke traps outnumbered those caught by the peanut butter traps 10 to 1.

Provoke is very simple to use. Just add a small amount to your snap traps, glue board traps, or live mouse traps and you instantly double the enticement for curious mice.
