SHORELINE WILDLIFE AND PEST  NEWS

   June 4th 2025 

​

We are proud to announce that we are the first pest control company in the state of CT. to switch to a non anticoagulant rodent bait as our first line bait. 

 

After months of testing a stop feed, non anticoagulant bait the results have been very impressive. We are excited to offer this bait which is safer for mammals and birds. Testing other products in 2023 and part of 2024 did not yield satisfactory mouse and rat control but we kept trying and tested a newer offering by BASF. We have been thrilled to see the results of fast mice and rat control and elimination while at the same time reducing the problems associated with second generation anticoagulant baits. The active ingredient, Cholecalciferol is a stop feed bait that works faster with mice and rats that stop eating after the first dose. 

       Cholecalciferol has a low risk for secondary poisoning of birds and mammals including dogs and cats. 

​

As a wildlife photographer and someone who appreciates nature in all its variety we are happy to switch over to a bait offering these advantages while still allowing us to protect peoples homes. 

    Combined with our sealing and exclusion techniques, we use IPM or integrated pest management which means using other means such as sealing openings before or in addition to baits. We have been perfecting this for years. Combined, these practices have allowed us to give our customers permanent rodent solutions, rather than just using bait in a never ending cycle, not looking at how mice are entering a home.  

​

   Please call us if you have any questions or are currently having a rodent problem.
