A rodent control mixture includes a blended chewing gum, salt, fast rising yeast, and flavor additive such as alfalfa powder. The blended chewing gum may be a spearmint-flavored Chiclets chewing gum blended into a powdered form. Relative weights of ingredients of the rodent control feed mixture include two weight units of the powdered gum, two weight units of the salt, one weight unit of the fast-rising yeast, and one weight unit of the flavor additive. A rodent control feed is formed by mixing the rodent control mixture with water and oil into a rodent food such as rolled oats. The rodent control feed is then placed into the burrow holes of the target rodent such as into gopher holes of a gopher burrow. Beneficially, the rodent control mixture and associated feed is less harmful to humans, domestic animals and wildlife than poisons such as Strychnine commonly utilized to kill rodents.

Disclosed are compositions and methods of pest control. The composition contains one or more active agents such as a polyalcohol, carbohydrate, nucleobase or nucleotide compound or derivative and one or more inactive ingredients which function as attractants or nutrients. The combination of the active agent(s) and the inactive ingredients achieves synergistic effect in pest control.

A formulation for voluntary oral administration of bioactive compounds to rodents. The semidsolid formulation having at least one thickening agent, a digestible sweetener selected from sucralose and calcium saccharin, a diluent agent, wherein the diluent agent is a powder with a granulometry between 300 and 800 μm, obtained from finely grounded seeds, cereal grains or cereal grain based diet for rodents, at least one flavor masking agent and a bioactive compound. The semi-solid formulation promotes voluntary feeding in rodents regardless of the bioactive compounds contained therein and without disruption of the metabolic pathways, therefore the semi-solid formulation has shown to be ideal for use in the oral administration of drugs and bioactive compounds to rodents. Use of the semi-solid formulation in the production of toxicant baits for rodents is also envisioned.

The present invention relates to a rodenticide bait composition comprising a calcium salt and a dehydrant; wherein the calcium salt is selected from the group consisting of calcium carbonate, calcium citrate, calcium acetate, calcium benzoate, calcium 5 octanoate, calcium stearate, calcium silicate, calcium oxide silicate, calcium sulfate, calcium chloride, calcium bromide, calcium iodide, calcium lactate, calcium gluconate, calcium oxalate, calcium phosphate and combinations of two or more thereof; wherein the calcium salt is present in an amount of less than 20 wt. % based on the total weight of the composition; wherein the dehydrant comprises one or more sources of cellulose 10 and one or more sources of phospholipids.
