Has anyone used this on rats (with cola)?
Better yet anyone have any experience using it in an enclosed area that you may be working in throughout the day?
Dont want myself or any smaller folk falling ill from the fumes.

I know if you mix it with cherry coke it's deadly on raccoons. Also seems to work somewhat on woodchucks.
And skunks and opossums.  Might work on rats if they are thirsty.  I don't think there would be a fume issue.

A quick FYI -- a few years ago we had a small flock of chickens for our own eggs, and a couple of tame turkry's to keep em company -- they ate alot of grass hoppers around the place back then.

One day I had the brain storm of putting out Malrin for the flies, and never had a thought about the COLOR of the bait. If it had been brown like gravel, I would have never had a problem. Well, the darn poultry went to the color -- yellow -- like a magnet -- and they were all dead in less than a minute -- seriously! They dropped faster than the flies I wanted to kill!!!

Be carefull around any kind of bird life -- they love the stuff -- but it is deadly!
