Re: palm rats
It is supposed to be safe as far as domestic pets are concerned but I still try to locate the bait out of reach, either at the entrance to their nest holes or in the palm tree where earlier fronds have been cut. If you can leave them slightly visible you will see when the bait has been taken. Re-bait as there are usually more rats than you think! This usually works very quickly but nature being what it is you will never completely cure the problem as a new family will move in eventually.
