What is Happening to Your Fruit?

Perhaps you've seen this in your garden or orchard. A beautiful citrus tree, luscious fruit ripening, just waiting to be picked. Then you look closer and find that the fruit is damaged, ripped open and cored out. Completely empty shells still hanging on the tree and damaged fruit laying all over the ground. Or one day you see ripening fruit and the next day there is only a seed hanging from the branch where the fruit once was. Disappointed, angry, helpless you wonder what could have caused this. Many people believe birds are pecking away at the fruit. But believe it or not, this may very well be the work of the rat. Roof rats and Norway rats are everywhere. They have voracious appetites and insatiable thirst. Fruit offers high density sugar water which is essential for rats to survive. Roof rats, also known as black rats, may not only be climbing in the trees to eat the fruit but may also be nesting up high in the dense tree foliage. They work in the cover of darkness, in and out with shear destruction as the only evidence of their existence. The only way to end this nightmare is to eliminate the problem for good.  Poisons and bait boxes are not effective, do harm to the environment and other animals, require constant maintenance, and will not end the infestation until it's too late and the damage is already done. An immediate solution is needed and there is no better way to save the fruit and restore your peace than by using the best rat snap traps with Bait Cage Kit for Rat Traps to ensure rats are killed the first time, every time.
