Abstract
Eight anticoagulant rodenticides were used against Rattus norvegicus, R. r. frugivorous and Muss musculus. Phenal proved to be the most suitable against R. norvegicus, while Redentin 75 was less effective. However, males accepted Super-Caid as bait. On the other hand, Klerat Super was more effective than Storm against R. r. frugivorous and M. musculus, in choice feeding and V.V. in no choice feeding. It was concluded that more than one anticoagulant rodenticide being recommended with interval between application in a large rodent infested area.
