Question 1

can these be used to anchor a protecta sidekick

Accepted Answer

No.  This is a poison applicator.  It gets the poison down into the mole hole.  I guess you can put rat poison in it to apply it into a rats nest, but it’s not an anchor.

Question 2

Is this a risk to cats?

Accepted Answer

If you spill it on the surface it is poison to all animals or children that would eat it.  It is designed to be installed in the gopher's tunnel and covered back up with dirt.  If you have a pet that digs in the dirt it is possible for them to find it and eat it which would be bad.  I use a gopher bait tool that you can punch a hole in the ground the size of a dime leaving the sod undisturbed.  The pellets are added to a compartment in the tool that you can release into the gopher's tunnel which you locate with the tool without digging.  Cats do not dig usually so it's pretty safe for them. The gopher bait dispenser is sold on Amazon as well and it a great and easy tool to use.

Question 4

Any idea how to unclog bait? I cant find anything smaller than a wire hanger. Tried soaking, used draino, banging w a mallet and on tire.

Accepted Answer

Most baits, if left in the tool when stored, will absorb moisture from the environment and become sticky.  The solution is to empty any loose bait from the tool and then completely submerge the tool in water and let it soak overnight.  After a lengthy soaking, run water through the tool until it comes out of the end of the probe.  The process may require several attempts depending upon the amount of bait stuck in the tool.
If the customer does not have a tub large enough to submerge the tool, a large leaf bag will work.  Set the bag on the ground, insert the tool and then fill the bag with enough water to cover it.
This tool may rust if it is not dried thoroughly.  We recommend that, once the clog has been removed, it be placed in the sunshine for a few hours so that it dries completely.  Going forward, we recommend that any unused bait be returned to the original container before the tool is stored.
