Wilco 1# Zinc Bait

Wilco’s 1# Zinc Bait is a powerful and efficient solution for managing pocket gopher infestations. Designed specifically for homeowners, this bait is formulated with a highly effective active ingredient, Zinc Phosphide, combined with a carefully selected wheat carrier to ensure maximum rodent attraction. 

Whether you’re dealing with gophers that damage your lawn, garden, or agricultural areas, Wilco’s Zinc Bait offers a reliable and straightforward way to restore control and protect your property.

Advanced Single-Feed Formulation for Rapid Results

The standout feature of Wilco 1# Zinc Bait is its acute toxin and single-feed formulation. This means that gophers only need to ingest the bait once for it to take effect. This fast-acting solution significantly reduces the time and effort required to manage infestations compared to multi-feed options.

Why Zinc Phosphide?

The active ingredient, Zinc Phosphide, has long been trusted in pest control for its efficiency in targeting specific rodent species like pocket gophers. Once ingested, it reacts with stomach acids to release phosphine gas, which quickly eliminates the pest. This mechanism ensures effective control without prolonged suffering, making it an ethical and efficient choice for rodent management.

Highly Palatable Wheat Carrier for Maximum Attraction

To ensure success, Wilco has paired Zinc Phosphide with a premium wheat carrier. Pocket gophers are naturally attracted to grains, making this combination highly palatable and effective. The bait is specifically designed to lure these pests, ensuring they consume the lethal dose quickly and leave your property free from damage.

This thoughtful pairing not only enhances the bait’s efficacy but also minimizes waste, as the targeted pests are drawn to the bait immediately.

Ideal for Homeowners: Convenience and Simplicity

Wilco’s Zinc Bait is formulated with homeowners in mind, offering a straightforward and easy-to-use solution for gopher control. The 1-pound package provides ample coverage for typical residential applications, making it a cost-effective option for maintaining your lawn and garden.

Application Tips for Optimal Results

To maximize the effectiveness of Wilco 1# Zinc Bait, follow these recommended steps:

1. Identify Active Tunnels: Locate active gopher tunnels or mounds in your yard. Active tunnels are typically identified by fresh soil pushed to the surface.
2. Use a Gopher Probe or Rod: Create a small opening in the tunnel to place the bait. Ensure the bait is deposited directly into the tunnel to increase the likelihood of consumption.
3. Apply the Bait: Use the recommended amount of bait as instructed on the label. Avoid handling the bait with bare hands to prevent contamination.
4. Monitor Results: Check the treated areas after a few days. If activity persists, consider reapplying the bait in different locations.

Always read and follow the product label instructions for safe and effective use.

Safe and Responsible Use

Wilco prioritizes safety and effectiveness in pest control. The Zinc Bait is designed to target pocket gophers specifically, minimizing risks to non-target species when applied correctly. For added precaution, always store the bait in its original container, away from children, pets, and wildlife.

Eco-Friendly Considerations

Using a targeted solution like Wilco 1# Zinc Bait helps homeowners reduce the need for widespread pesticides, ensuring that the surrounding environment is minimally impacted. By addressing gopher infestations quickly and effectively, you can maintain a healthier ecosystem in your yard.
