Pat: The bait that was suggested earlier is Ramik Brown. There is also Ramik Green which has the same active ingredient diphacinone (0.005%) plus attractants. Both are produced by HACCO Inc. in Randloph Wisconsin. As I mentioned in the article that I sent earlier, mice do shy away from both zinc phosphide and diphacinone after feeding on them for a few times, so it is best to alternate between the two. I suggest you start with diphacinone first then switch to the phosphide, when you change the bait, after two to three weeks. Use the pellets of zinc phosphide not the cracked corn. The pellets rot a little slower than the cracked corn, especially at high humidity or rain. Ramik comes in single packs or bulk. Mosbah Kushad, University of Illinois
