Description

• ‘Last resort’ Rat Control
• Book Style Boards
• Indoor Use Only!

Professional pest controllers will need licensing to purchase/use these.

Rapid results for the difficult to deal with rat! These boards are the book style fold away type that can be closed and used again if unsuccessful the first time round.
Sticky boards are not our favourite means of dealing with rats and mice but as a last resort they provide a very effective, though somewhat unpleasant, solution.
Size: 32cm x 21cm.
Place in areas where rats known to be active, place close against skirting or wall for best results as rats tend to run around the edges of a room.
Do not use rat catcher sticky traps outside and protect from non-target species, these traps will will catch birds and small mammals so please be careful. Cooking oil can be used to release anything that is caught unintentionally, but we really don’t want you to allow that to happen!

Please ensure you read and adhere to the following:
1) Option of last resort – All other options for rodent control must be considered before glue boards are used.
2) Check boards frequently – Where rodent boards are used these must be inspected at appropriate intervals. This should be within 12 hours of placing, or at least as soon as is reasonably practicable, including weekends and bank holidays.
3) Protect non-target species – Boards must be placed in such a manner that they do not present a risk to non-target species.
5) Use the correct size board for the pest species – The size of the board must be appropriate for the target species.
6) Dispatch of trapped rodents humanely – Rodents trapped on rodent boards must be dispatched quickly and humanely. Placing the glue board in a clear plastic bag and dealing the rodent a sharp blow to the head with a blunt instrument would be an appropriate mode of dispatch. Drowning is NOT acceptable.
7) Remove boards at the end of the treatment – At the end of the treatment all rodent boards must be accounted for, and removed.

Please ensure that they are checked at least once every 12 Hours to ensure no undue stress is bestowed on the animal. Please check the best codes of practice available from out information pages

PROFESSIONAL USE ONLY – This product can only be used by people who are required to use this type of rodent control as part of their work and who have received appropriate information, instruction and training.

Currently It is not an offence under the Glue Traps (Offences) Act 2022 to purchase or to sell rodent glue traps. As such, it is not ‘illegal’ for us, a supplier, to sell rodent glue traps to you, however it is your responsibility to ensure you follow all the relevant rules and regulation pertaining to glueboards and their use, codes of practice and the way they are used. There are now strict guidelines in place as to where they can be used and only when all other methods have been exhausted.  

 It is also not a legal requirement for any potential purchaser to have to show a copy of their licence or qualifications to purchase rodent glue traps.

As from 1st August 2024 a license is required to use any glueboard from DEFRA and there are very limited spaces it can be used. Please find more info with this link to BPCA
