These are very good insect control products. They can be used safely, particularly Victor Corner Rat. If that product is as good as it says it is, then households will surely be able to keep rats to a minimum. However, knowing rats, they can be really smart; they will eventually get the idea that there’s a particular trap getting them and will find ways to go around it. It’s not also advisable to rely on these products if you see infestation in your home. Always contact a licensed pest control technician to take care of serious pest problems for you.
