Indoors
For Rats: Apply 20-30 g of Racumin® Foam per hole or passageway (foam the size of half a brick).
For Mice: Apply 4 g (foam the size of a tennis ball) – 30 g of Racumin® Foam per hole or passageway.
This quantity can be applied as a single application or as a number of small applications along the track. The hole should not be completely filled with foam so that the animals still recognise their usual roads and passages. If the hole is completely filled with foam, the animals can hesitate to pass.
The released foam usually lasts for 7-12 days, depending on disturbance and temperature/humidity. Two applications per treatment campaign are recommended. Anticoagulant rodenticides take from 4 to 10 days to be effective after consumption, due to their delayed mode of action.
