Evolve Soft Bait for Rats - 12 lb

Evolve is a highly-palatable patent-pending soft bait contraceptive for rats.

The active ingredient is cottonseed oil, which interferes with the reproductive mechanisms of both male and female rats. As a FIFRA Section 25(b) exempt minimum risk pesticide, it poses little to no risk to human health or the environment.

Rodenticides can reduce a population fast, but the remaining survivors soon repopulate. This is because rats have a short reproductive cycle and large litters with many pups. Evolve compliments other rodent control tactics for a better outcome. Fertility control prevents rats from increasing their numbers for long-term success. Including Evolve as part of a complete Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategy helps avoid the frustration that comes from spending time, money, and effort to reduce a rat population, only to have it bounce right back. 

Rodenticides tend to become less effective over time due to learned aversion, genetic resistance, and/or increased tolerance. The rats that survive in a population are typically the ones that won't eat rodenticides, or have learned to outsmart traps. Evolve is a contraceptive bait without the side effects that can lead to bait aversion. Surviving rats will continue to eat Evolve; the more they eat, the better results for you. Evolve proactively addresses the source of a rat infestation, working in tandem with other rodent control tactics, targeting the surviving population.

Evolve™ Rat Birth Control is a highly-palatable soft bait contraceptive for rats.

The active ingredient, cottonseed oil restricts reproduction in male and female rats without harming them or you and your pets. And since 2 rats in 1 year can become 15,000, addressing the reproductive side of rat control is extremely important.

Key Benefits:

• Long-Term Solution.  Affects the population beginning after one breeding cycle (four to six weeks), resulting in reduced pregnancies and less pups born.
• User-Friendly Format.  The soft bait format is convenient to deploy and can be used with a bait station (especially if pets or children are around) or staked in your garden or near burrows.
• Delicious to Rats.  Rats are attracted to the formula which means the more they eat, the more effective the birth control is.
• Address Infestation Source. Impacts birth rate by restricting reproductive ability in male and female rates. Rodenticides (a.k.a. "poison") and traps can reduce a population, but there are always survivors which reproduce faster than you imagine. Rats have short reproductive cycles (2 months) and large litters with many pups. Evolve Rat Birth Control complements other rodent control tactics for a better outcome. Rat birth control prevents rats from increasing their numbers for long-term success. Including Evolve Rat Birth Control as part of your pest management strategy helps avoid the frustration that comes from spending time, money, and effort to reduce a rat population, only to have it bounce right back.
• Targeting The Survivors. Rodenticides tend to become less effective over time due to learned aversion, genetic resistance, and/or increased tolerance. The surviving rats in a population are typically the ones that won’t eat rodenticides, or have learned to outsmart traps. Evolve Rat Birth Control has no side effects that can lead to bait aversion. Surviving rats will continue to eat the bait. Evolve proactively addresses the source of a rat infestation, and can work in tandem with other rodent control tactics, targeting the survivors. Ideal indoors or out, Evolve Rat Birth Control provides a reliable and safe method to manage and reduce infestations.

How to Use Evolve Rat Birth Control

Evolve Rat bait can be used in bait stations (if pets or children are around), hung in fruit/nut trees and along fence lines, placed in rat burrows, staked near burrows or high traffic areas and broadcast in and around crops and gardens.
