ABSTRACT:
A bait station for rodents and the like comprises a hollow housing shaped to admit a plurality of rodents therein, and includes an access opening adapted to service the bait station. The access opening is selectively closed by a closure having a releasable lock to prevent inadvertent opening of the access opening. Mounted within the housing is a partition having a substantially horizontal orientation, and dividing at least a portion of the housing into upper and lower levels. An entry aperture is disposed in the lower level of the housing, and is shaped to permit rodents to enter and exit the bait station therethrough. A first feed bin is positioned in the lower level of the housing at a first feed area disposed remote from the entry aperture. A second feed bin is positioned in the upper level of the housing at a second feed area. A passageway shaped to permit rodents to ambulate therethrough extends from the first feed area in the lower level of the housing to a location in the upper level of the housing, remote from the second feed area. The passageway allows the rodents to travel freely between the upper and lower levels of the housing for increased rodent feeding, while alleviating the tracking of bait from the bait station.
