Does baking soda really kill rats ?

You are the only guy who bothers to verify. Thank you so much for taking the time and effort.

I use powdered peanut butter mix, with pancake mix and baking soda. Generates all kinds of foot(prints) traffic, and feces trails, all rodents. Then it gets quiet. And you realize you finally have your house back all to yourself.

I watched many many videos on this and the comments all had mixed responses...does work, does not work...rats too big to die etc etc. This is the first video that actually shows proof. Thank you so much for taking the trouble to make this video. Subscribing.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your results! Here in BC Canada, rat poison has just been outlawed to protect rat predators like owls etc. I had 3 bait boxes, which I just filled with 50/50 baking soda/cornbread mixture. After watching your video, I am comfortable I am on the right track. Cheers!

I just started using this mix around my place, I'm glad to see that it really works. Thankyou!

Thank you for taking your precious time to make this video. It clearly shows that baking soda does in fact kill mice. Thumbs up my friend.

This works!! Just like birds mice and rats can not burp or pass gas. The sodium bicarbonate in baking soda causes gases to build up inside the animal and being that it can't burp or fart to release these gases it essentially explodes on the inside from the pressure.

I was just introduced to this concept a couple videos back. I think the rats need to be hungry, which is normal (most of the time) as they eat really weird things, like the heads off of my drums in storage, so if they are really hungry I suspect this will work. I know some people will find this cruel, but I have had immense amounts of property destroyed by the bastards. On top of that I am tired of people using cumiden/d-Con which then kills the endangered owls when they eat the poisoned rats. If you think that poisoned rodents aren't decimating the owl population you need to do your research. THANK YOU. Subscribed.

Thank you for trapping a rat and sharing your research. Most KZheadrs don’t post real effects

filet mignon and cauliflower with rice and red wine.

seen other videos saying what can be done but the proof always shines through fine job young man.

Best video I've seen yet on getting rid of these little monsters! Thanks so much!

Thanks for doing this experiment!

Thanks for confirming your findings.

Wow relatively quick too - thanks for posting this!

Thank you for taking the time to do this

Perfect experiment, so great to see the proof in action. I doubted it myself but here you go! Works like a charm.

Nice experiment and alternative poison. The pest control company had been using the green rat bait, but I caught a racoon managing to reach all the way in and scratch crumbs off. He seems to have survived but I threw the bait out

Great video, and your experiment much appreciated. Could you possibly try it with plaster of Paris?? Thanks so much again!!

I have done it with just peanut butter and baking soda. No flour or anything else and it works just great!

Thank you for doing this experiment on 1 rat. I was always curious if this was just a myth . What puzzles me though is : Downtown NY subways , and major cities in Italy are smeared with rats , why the Soda isn't used to fight this problem ?

@Oakey Mt. Outdoors try adding bay leaves to the mix, rats love bay leaf you just need a little bit. It's the smell that attract them. And beyond leaf is very strong that's how I get them to eat from traps Most important is to collect dead one as soon so other rats can't see them dead in the trap, plus be sure to clean the trap of all smells or other rats won't go near them. Rats are very smart

I have a question. Do you mix corn bread mix along with baking soda dry ? Or should I add water and mix it together?

I think you did a good job on this subject have a lot of videos talking about this but no one has tested it like you did so I have to say good job. And I say if anyone or has anyone else tried this also?

Can anyone tell me if an older box of baking soda will still work or do I need a fresh one that bubbles in water? Older baking soda doesnt bubble. Probably won't work? Thanks for the advice.

Great video. I use baking soda and powder sugar 50/50 works great.

I appreciate you taking time to do this God Bless

this is exactly how you tell if it works or not ,,, great video !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How much do yiu add. Parts of baking soda to peanut butter. There is a house infested with rats I'm volunteering on. The elderly lady is in wheelchair and has cats. Any help would help. I have caught 4 rats under sink with traditional traps...but the other known areas are out in the open.

Going to do this ASAP. Rats have been eating my tomatoes like never before. Had fairly good success using regular spring-loaded rat traps but not always. BTW - How can you tell if it's rats eating your tomatoes vs chipmunks or squirrels? Look at the area beneath where the tomato was eaten. If there are confetti-like tomato skin on the ground then it's rats. Chipmunks and squirrels eat all of the tomatoes - including the skin.

Great video, thanks for sharing.

If you use this mixture for vermin, would it be harmful for any birds or other creatures that might feed upon the vermin?

Thanks for doing this !!!!

Thank you Sir for proving it's true!

Thank You, it made perfect sense to me but KZhead was going back and forth with it. I’m going to switch to peanut butter because they’re not going for the cornbread mix with syrup

Nice Video. How did you get the water in the cage? Was that bottle cap, able to fit through the cage holes? Or did you have to open the cage and put the water in? Because I know rats can squeeze through an opening the size of a quarter.

We had a big infestation of rats. The baking soda and cornmeal mix left out really worked!!! We haven't even seen one rat but found dead ones all over the yard

Cornbread flour- potato flakes and baking soda ,mixture.Always use gloves to mask the smell of human.

I saw one video add peanut butter to the mix of baking soda pancake mix you could try that ..I thought it reacts to water the soda there must be water in peanut butter would be a good test

Thanks very much for this experiment. I have rats in my attic and tried a mix of plaster of Paris with chocolate protein powder. The only trouble is, plaster of Paris sets on exposure to the moisture in the air. So I'm going to try a mix of chocolate protein powder with equal measure of baking soda.

Thank YOU so much.. I will try it soon

Baking Soda is the Gun I mix Flour, Sugar & any little table scraps like Bacon cut up into tiny pieces, Dried out shrimp tails or slice up a few strawberries mix them up in my famous receipt coated well & use a tiny paint brush to coat outside entrance with honey or Bacon grease of a few used cottage cheese plastic containers cut a big enough hole in the side. "Come On In!" The Rats hit it heavy, stops them from hitting my garden an it is thinning out the herd night by night.

Thanks for this video. I suspect it'll be one of your most popular, because rats are a worldwide problem! :D Definitely gonna try your solution.

What about baking soda mixed with peanut butter?

Hi. How much baking soda do you use? I am desperate. Exterminator came 3 x. Still here. I am terrified it will jump on our kids....thank you for any info..

Thanks so much .I was ready to give up.

Thanks to a meme about the rat from ratatouille i learned mice dont have a gag reflex so once poisoned they can't get rid of it

Thank you for making this video.

Dang, I've mixed some BSoda, BPowder, and they don't touch it, yet they get caught in the Victors, am I mixing it at the wrong ratio. Anybody have a ratio ? I've mixed up Masa mix with BSoda, B Powder and covered almonds, they dig out the almonds eat them, if it is working, then dang how big is my flock ? I keep catching rats, got over a dozen in my traps in the coop, roof rats, not bush rats.

It does work really well. I moved up on a heavily forested mountain in Northern California about 3 years ago. I noticed something was eating my quail but could not figure out what until I put up night cameras. I quickly found that I had 20 or more rats running all around my quail pen at night. After some research I found out about Baking soda. I then mixed 50-50 mix of Baking soda and corn meal and put it out in small containers around my bird pen. It started slowly but within 2 weeks all the rats disappeared. Now I replenish the mix every couple of weeks and have had no problems since. It Works. Even better the rats keep coming back if it doesn't get them the first time because they love the taste.

THE DIRTY RAT, FELL ASLEEP.

You save my time!!!!

This is exactly what I was looking for

How much do i need mix? And how much water? Thanks.

And I quote ".The rat is down ".

This was sobering but effective. Glad to know they don't hang around for days in agony.

I use big plastic box hole in each end Use baking soda flour plaster of Paris Sometimes peanut butter Usually powder chicken soup load.

This is great. Was wanting to control rats but not harm the hawks and owls. Will use in my garden.

Maybe also add some human traps for the empty house, to make sure squatters don't move in there.

How much of the mixture did it consume?

Can you try the plaster of paris with porridge?

And another one bites the dust.

Im not sure im convinced. A more controled expeiment would be better. It might have died from something else, even fright. Just one experiment, try again, if its done over and over i would be convinced.

SO how much of the mix does the rat have to eat to kill it?

It worked! Thank youuuu

Great thanks for this

Do you think this would work for squirrels?

Don’t use water with the mix.

Good to know. The rat killer industry has some explaining to do LOL.

Thanks for trapping it and showing us the evidence, brother. Most people don't do that.

Great video showing proof. How much of the 3 teaspoons baking soda mixture did the rat eat for it to die within 24 hours?

4:36 you can clearly see it's still breathing.

This really works

I wish you had a camera set up to that it really was the poison you made that killed it and you did switch it out for views.

I just put out some peanut butter and baking soda they eating that shyt up it’s not my house it’s my neighbors house

Want to truly catch a rat, get a young girl with long hair and ring Biden and tell him where she is

How much baking soda?

But have to be the only surce of food😢...

As long as they do not die in the walls or where you can't get to them...stinks.

I have tried TomCat bait but it does not work. Hopefully this will do the trick.

Did you try to cook it and eat it?

Very good.

There isn't real proof here if the camera cuts away to verify that thiis works. Oh, I'm gonna try it anyway but I'll also put out my rat traps since they are in my HVAC duct causing insulation to be blown up to each vent in the house. New heat and air system cost over $8000 just before spring and rats are chewing through the stuff like candy to bed in. I don't care how I kill em now with holes in the ductwork under the house and of all times it's the hottest summer on record. Figures, that's my luck. Good luck all.

Don’t always believe what’s on the internet

The mouse I'm trying to catch has been eating baking soda, flour, sugar mix 4 times already across two different days, still alive

Did it die though? That rat was still breathing

Thanks for showing the proof

I wiil try this today.

Cool video

Proof is in the puddin' ...and here's the proof. Don't really understand why other YT posters haven't done this before...maybe they have but This is the first I've seen that actually shows proof.

Idk bro I'm not drinking life water just to be safe 😂

The Dirty Rat...

Less humane, tho'. Snap traps are instantaneous, less suffering.

only 1 rat.... need to do more rats and see if they, all die in 24 hours ,,,you can't say absolutely that the baking soda killed it.......was it that or fright or too cold...there was nothing to keep t warm ...too bad there was a necropsy performed to determine what it died of

Did you leave the trap outside over night? Most likely died from exposure.

I'm killing everyone mice in my neighborhood FACTS 🤣

He used rat poison

Lol I have a NYC mouse that won't touch any thing we put out for him including the Corn bread flour mixed with baking soda lol

Probably died from not enough water.

Does this work on gophers too?
