I use Havoc small throw packs and then Tom cat blocks. I put a row of finishing nails around the outside wall on the garage and put the blocks on the nils. The throw packs I use behind the freezers, under shelves, up in the attic, etc. I like the throw packs because you can move them easily if they don't get into them. The Tom Cat blocks work better for rats. Ramik is good for river rats too.
I keep the bait out 365. I have cats and dogs both. I have only had one issue and that was a puppy twenty years ago that got a bait pack out from behind a freezer in the garage. It did him in. The older animals don't seem to bother it any. With feed around I have to keep it around.
For the fellow that said he was putting it out and it was being eaten but he could not see any difference in the mouse/rat population. You need to put more out and in more places. I started on a boughten house a few years ago. Used almost twenty lbs of bait in the first week. The next week I use ten. Then the third week maybe a single LBS. It took that long to get them all feed. There are many more rats/mice than you think around a farm/field.
The EPA is going to crack down on the bait we can buy at the start of 2013. You will not be able to buy it other than in these bait house/stations. Throw packs and blocks are going to become illegal. At least that is what the local feed mill is telling us. I bought enough for ten years or so.

I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
