Two boxes is rarely an accident: it is the size chosen by someone who has seen a rodent cross the garage, or heard scratching above the ceiling, and wants it over without turning the house into a building site. 600 g of bait covers two runways and keeps them stocked for as long as it takes — which one box cannot do.

Where rodents get in, in an ordinary house

Before placing anything, look for the signs. Dark rice-grain droppings along a skirting board, a punctured seed bag, greasy smears low on a wall, claws overhead in the evening: these tell you where they travel. A rodent follows walls and rarely crosses an open room.

In a house the three usual spots are the garage (badly fitted door, pet food bags), the cellar (damp, air brick) and the loft, reached through a duct or an overhanging tree. One station placed well at each of these beats five placed at random.

Two stations beat one well-stocked station

A rodent has a small territory but fixed habits. If it meets the bait on its route it will feed; if it has to cross open floor to reach it, it will not bother. That is why two stations in two different places do more than twice the work of one.

The 24 blocks let you stock both stations and recharge them several times. Allow two to three blocks per station at first, then top up at each visit while they are being eaten. The day consumption stops, the job is done.

What you should know about the molecule

Flocoumafen works by blocking blood clotting. Its effect takes several days to show, and that delay is exactly what makes it work: the animal does not link feeling unwell to what it ate, so it comes back. A fast-acting poison empties the station once and is then never touched again.

It is also a second-generation molecule, active against populations resistant to older anticoagulants. If you have already tried an entry-level product with no result, that is often the explanation.

Precautions in an occupied home

Rodent bait never belongs in the open where there are children or pets. The block goes inside a closed station whose opening admits a rodent but not a hand or a dog’s nose. That is the only indoor use we recommend.

Note down where each station sits: a box tucked behind a washing machine is quickly forgotten. And once peace returns, collect the uneaten blocks rather than leaving them to age in place — they keep perfectly well in their original box for the following season.
