Cheers tegater, I remember now like you said if it stays warm its ok because the poison Lowers the body temperature causing hypothermia

And if I remember I read something about during trials of black pearl if the temp rose there was a risk of the mice coming round.

All ironed out now I hope.

 

Lol no good if your using behind a combi boiler.

Well we must have fussy Feckin mice up here Matt

 

They must go well with your tight farmers.....

 

I've only used it a couple of times; quite impressive to get a quick knockdown on jobs; the mice seem to just nibble a corner off the sachet and buy it almost straight away. I was using it on bars in Romax mouse boxes.

 

My favourite mouse bait was always Sorexa CD. Very palatable and easy to use in lofts etc in the little red round bait trays.

Hence the micro encapsulation of the active.

The problem was it was an anticoagulant that only worked below 18 deg and if the temp was raised it didn't have the same effect.

I haven't dismissed it yet Matt but its strange that mice would go for something else eg deadline paste or grain and not entertain the alpha.

 

You could be right. Not classed as expensive enough along with the molecatching prices. Lol

I normally use neosorexa pasta bait which I find works well

It's not an anti-coagulant.

If your mice will eat normal pasta bait then they will certainly eat Black Pearl. The formulation is the same as Neosorexa and most of the other pasta baits; it's just the active that is different.

It's not an ant coag. It's a narcotic

[Froudy 40]

Moxy just out of interest where was you using it?

[moxy 617]

Domestic jobs and including my own house!!

 

I ended up trapping mine at home in the end.

[Froudy 40]

I was just thinking if you was using it in loft spaces as heat rises it normally pretty warm up there, would this be the reason it wasn't working for you, maybe?

[paulus 26]

it had other uses

 

ALPHA-CHLORALOSE -- alpha-D-glucochloralose.

Material: Synthetic chemical prepared by reacting chloral with

Learn something else knew, I was always told it was an anti coagulant!
