Well, here it is......100% control........ period. No if's or and's .....100% control...I have to admit I did have second thoughts about warfarin base as the active ingredient. Given the fact that warfarin is much safer with less toxicity, we will be changing our stock to Kaput on our next order. The results is a done deal and we will be using it from now on. Just for the record, I have 36 years experience with every rodenticide that has ever been available. Good to see a safer product back in use again that we can say with certainty that there are no secondary kills. Thank You so much for calling on us.

Moles have been a problem for sometime, and now they seem to be getting worse. Baits have never worked so the only thing left for us was trapping - very time consuming and expensive for the customer. When I used your product (Kaput® Mole Gel Bait). I was skeptical. Had an area between a sidewalk and swimming pool - approximately 300-400 sq. ft. I used one tube and after every day of watching over the mole problem, I noticed no new burrowing - even to this winter!! This spring I went back to inspect and still no action. Send me more - I'm going to war!! The product works!! Client is happy and a very happy technician!

Kaput® Rat & Mouse Bait
I've been in pest control for over twenty years and with some accounts, trying to get mice to even eat any baits has been a challenge. I am using it (Kaput® Rat & Mouse Bait) in a lot of my difficult accounts now and am switching over all my residential pest management program accounts to the Kaput® because I think it is an excellent product. There are a lot of baits out there and I find that mice aren't even eating them. This is a bait that they are attracted to, they are eating it, and it's working! I've tested it against other products and it is preferred over my other top rodenticides, and again, it's working. I'm recommending it to other people now and pushing my suppliers to pick it up.

I wanted to write to let you know how happy I am using Kaput bait. I have used a competitors bait for many years. I sometimes don't get good acceptance from the competitors bait. When I first used the Kaput bait I was treating a residential home in Buffalo Grove IL. I decided to place out both baits in the same areas. I wanted to see which bait would be eaten first. When I returned after 2 weeks I found all the competitors bait still in place and all the Kaput was gone. And the best part was all the mice were gone. My first reaction was WOW! I then got a call for some rats in the city. I told myself this would be the ultimate test for Kaput® Rat & Mouse Bait. Once again I was overwhelmed with the results. Within two weeks all rat sightings were gone. I will continue to use Kaput bait for all my rodent treatments. Thank you for making such a great product.

Kaput® Mouse Blocks
I have been in the pest control industry for 23 years and sure, I was hesitant at first about Warfarin as the active ingredient, but, gave it a try. I have never used a mouse bait that works as well as Kaput Mouse Blocks. I used Kaput Mouse Blocks in all of my quarterly accounts and when I go back, I find dead Deer Mice and still have bait in the stations. The mice are eating it and I get complete control and never a complaint.
I use Kaput Mouse Blocks and Kaput Gopher Bait on my Government installations and if these products are not already approved by the DOD, I encourage other companies who do work on Government installations to get with their pest management coordinators and get it approved. I use Kaput Mouse blocks around the military dog kennels and don't worry about the dogs eating
a dead mouse because it will metabolize in a mouse in 48 hours and because of its low toxicity, it takes 7 pounds of bait to kill a 50 pound dog. This is the only bait I use and I highly recommend it.

We tested when we received the initial sample of the Warfarin based extruded block rodenticide. We have tested it on a food facility, an exterior rodent baiter platform, where we set traps up in a trap line. The initial acceptance has been quite good. We haven't really had it out long enough to make any judgments on the neophobic reactions or any sort of bait shyness. We're confident that won't be a problem, because of the multi-feeding, but we have had an excellent acceptance with your bait (Kaput® Mouse Blocks). We've had acceptable rodent activity indicating acceptance of bait at this point. Again, we have had them in exterior stations placed at 30-50 foot intervals along the exterior perimeter of the facility which does processing separation and distribution of vegetables and produce. So far we are quite satisfied with the product.

We have a lot of horse barns that have a lot of rodent activity, so it is very difficult for me to do rodent control there because they have such a food source. I set numerous bait stations out in hopes that they will like one of the eight that I put out. I had put Contrac out in one, I used Top Gun in another bait station, I used your bait (Kaput® Rat & Mouse Blocks) in the third station, I tried some Ditrac in another station. I found all of the bait stations had been touched a little, yours was totally empty! I just had excellent acceptance with it, where they weren't trying the other ones at all, and these bait stations were within five feet of each other. Just to make sure, I said "well you know, lets shuffle the order of these bait stations", so I basically moved them around a little bit and I put your station where I had had the Bromethalin and the Top Gun and I think I had some Final out there and I know I had some Contrac. So I shuffled them around and kept it on my grass, same thing - they devoured your bait. So obviously that tells me my problem will end up being solved with a combination of having these people clean up their horse barns a little bit so it limits the food source that is readily available to the rodents, and having your bait out there.

I tested your Kaput® Mouse Blocks and was very pleased with the results. They work better than some of the other name brand baits out there. I test new products I am going to use to make sure they work as well as what I am already using. I keep records of how much product I use, how much is eaten and how many rodents are killed over a period of days or weeks, checking stations to see how much product is being eaten over a period of time. Your Kaput® Mouse Blocks are a part of the supplies I use in rodent control programs as of July 2004.

Just wanted to let you know that we are finally seeing some progress with the rodent infestation at Rose Grove. I just visited today and they have been documenting and checking stations 3 times a week. In the beginning the 2-3 chunks of bait were disappearing completely by the next check time. Just this week they have seen 1 chunck being left in atleast half the stations. I did see dead mice laying near or around the stations, I also seen a lot (I mean a lot) of droppings around them as well. I know that we are headed in the right direction with Kaput, and I really appreciate all the help you have given. We know we have an enormous amount of mice living in the barn, and I would much rather see the bait disappearing than not. We did have a week where the farm ran out of Kaput and used Hombre, the mice did not even touch it. We have a total of 123 stations around the perimeter and 120 on the inside. We are going through about 1-2 buckets a week of bait. We are anxiously awaiting the next few weeks to see even a bigger decrease in the amount of bait we need to replace. The manager Kevin asked for your number, he may be giving you a call. He says that with the amount of bait he is going through, he should be entitled to a Kaput hat, t-shirt, or fishing trip. HA! I opt. for the latter. Thanks again, Lisa

Kaput® Mole Gel Bait
It was my first mole job. The owner of a commercial account asked me to help with a bad mole problem, on a seven acre property, surrounded by forest and bordered by a creek. I had no idea what I was doing and was very conservative with your Kaput® Mole Gel Bait. It took a while for the moles to find the bait, but they did. Problem solved, and I have a new business line. Thanks Scimetrics!

One of our wildlife management technicians tested the sample reservoir of Kaput® Mole Gel Bait you provided. He injected the Kaput® into the steep tunnels that lead up to the early spring mole mounds on his own property. The steep tunnels and mole hills cannot be effectively set with any of the lethal mole traps. Our technician reported that the mole activity has ceased on his property as a result of the Kaput® Mole Gel Bait injection. I am now a believer. I plan to use Kaput® in conjunction with our lethal trap placements, especially in difficult situations.

I have had a serious mole problem in my house-yard for many years. I have tried to trap them without much success. About four weeks ago I purchased a tube of Kaput® Mole Gel Bait and tried it as per the instructions. I did notice signs of some additional activity for about four days. After the four days I have not seen any signs of additional mole activity. I am very pleased with this product and plan to continue to use it should any more new mole activity occur in my yard in the future. The product performs as advertised.

For years I've tried trapping moles myself and trying to teach my techs the various traps to use and the techniques. I saw a Kaput® ad in a a magazine, sent for it, and tried it. I sent Kaput® Mole Gel Bait out with one employee to try it. It works! We now stock it and plan to use more of it.

Kaput® -D Pocket Gopher Bait
Just wanted to let you know that we have been using Kaput D and it is working better than anything we have ever used on pocket gophers. With other products we have had problems with gophers kicking it back out of their hole and not eating it, but with this Kaput D they eat it and die. Thank you.

Kaput® -D Prairie Dog Bait
I have used Kaput Prairie Dog Bait for two years now and I have had excellent results. My customers are more than satisfied with the results and the cost of the product is significantly less than other wheat-based products. The product is less-risk to non-target animals. I really like and will endorse this product.

I just wanted to let you know that I am excited to here about your new product that is coming out. Adding a flea insecticide to your Kaput bait is a great idea. As you know Kaput mouse and rat bait has been the main rodenticide I have chosen for my company for the last couple of years. Its palatability is unmatched to any other rodenticide I have used. The mice and voles clean the stations so well it looks like there was never any bait to start with. Good luck. I will start using the product as soon as it is out.
