Rats not only waste feed and harm ducks, but also carry a variety of pathogens and spread epidemics. Therefore, the prevention and elimination of rodent damage is a work that can not be ignored to improve the economic benefits of duck farms. When building a duck house, it is necessary to do a good job of hard ground and wall feet, and it is best to pour concrete to prevent rat holes. The doors and windows of the duck house should be tight, and the windows should be equipped with barbed wire to prevent rats. Usually, rats can be caught with special mousetraps such as mousetraps, mousetraps and electronic mousetraps, and rats can also be caught with chemicals. The state prohibits fluoroacetamide, gas rodenticide and other acute toxic drugs from killing rats, and duck farms should choose rodenticide which is safe for people and ducks, has no secondary poisoning to natural enemies such as cats and snakes, is simple to use, low in cost and high in efficiency.

Poison bait is made of rodenticide and bait. The bait is mainly corn flour from a wide range of sources, but also rice or livestock feed. Prepare poison bait according to the instructions and put it in. According to the life rule that most rats live in the hiding place outside the farm, some live on the roof, and a few dig holes and nest in the house, poison bait is put in an all-round way to attack inside and outside the farm. In the duck house, poison bait should be placed under the trough, beside the passage, at the foot of the wall, in the egg box and other places where rats often move. Rodents within 500 meters of living quarters, offices, feed depots, seasoning rooms, hatcheries, egg storage rooms, farmland, wasteland, Woods, beaches, residential areas, etc. adjacent to farms should be exterminated at the same time to prevent rats from escaping from the net. The principle of putting poison bait is that the supply is slightly greater than the demand, and the supply cannot be in short supply. It takes three days to release poison bait at a time. Depending on the density of rats on the farm.

Matters needing attention

Accurately prepare poison bait in strict accordance with the instruction manual to ensure the concentration of poison bait. The food for preparing poison bait must be eaten by mice to prevent them from refusing to eat. Control the food source of rats, so that there is nothing to eat nearby. Take good care of livestock and poultry, prevent competing with mice for food, and ensure that mice eat enough poison bait. Keep the rodenticide well to prevent people and ducks from eating it by mistake. Rats died 2 ~ 3 days after feeding poison bait, and a large number died 3 ~ 4 days later. For super cunning mice, you can put the food without medicine in the place where the mice are active first, and then put the medicine in a few days. Every day, the dead rats are collected and buried. After deratization, we should do a good job in environmental sanitation, block the rat hole, and let the survivors have nowhere to hide. After killing rats successfully, poison bait boxes should be placed and poison bait should be put in regularly, which can make rats move freely for a long time.
