bait station

Rodent poison dispenser

A bait station is a container designed to hold poison or toxic substances for pest control while restricting access to children, pets, and non-target animals.

The pests—typically rodents or insects—enter through small openings to consume the bait inside: We placed bait stations along the foundation to control the ant problem.

Also called bait boxes.
