ABSTRACT:
A tamper resistant bait station for holding a supply of rodent or other pest bait is disclosed having an outer housing and a tray slidably received within the housing, and is secured in its received position by a tamper-resistant closure. The floor of the housing and the floor of the tray are elevated above the ground and have entrance openings therein in register with one another when the tray is inserted in the housing so that a pest, such as a mouse or rat, may enter the housing and the tray from below via the entrance openings. Partitions within the tray define the various passages and compartments within the tray, these partitions having notches or other openings therethrough to permit the pest to travel from the entrance openings to the bait compartment and to exit the bait station, but yet preventing tampering with the rodent bait and preventing protected wildlife from entering the bait station. The station may be secured to a wall or the like.
