Agri Zap RZUIR1 Rat Zapper Ultra Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have a rat problem in my attic.After searching around for solutions, this product appears to have the best solution to help with my rat problem.So far my Rat Zapper Ultra has caught 5 rats, and it is still going strong.I read some reviews complaining about battery life, I belive they are refering to the original Raz Zapper, not the Ultra version.The difference is that the Ultra version uses 'D' size batteries, which last much longer than the 'AA' used in the regular Rat Zapper.I have my rat zapper on for the last 3 month and the batteries are still ok.When it comes to catching rats, the fine details really matters.It is not easy to get them to take the bait.The bait that comes with the Rat Zapper didn't work at all.The rats don't care them at all.I had paced some of those bait outside the trap, and the rats won't even eat them.What I find works really well is peanut butter.What I do is use a glob of peanut butter about the size of a quater, and place it on a sheet of candy paper(I use the black circular paper from See's candy).The placement of the peanut butter should be skewed to one edge of the paper.Place the peanut butter bait inside the trap such that the peanut butter is just touching the metal grill at the end of the trap.That way, a rat can stick his paw in and get some sample of the peanut butter from outside of the cage.In addition, I smear a tiny amount of peanut butter on the outside of the metal grill to attract the rats, and gurantee that they can get a free sample.The rats just love peanut butter.When ever I have a catch, I notice that the peanut butter on the grill is alway licked clean by the rat, and they just can't resist going in to get the rest of the peanut butter once they have a good taste of the stuff.Another important procedure is to always wear disposable glove when handling the trap and bait material.Rats have really keen sense of smell.They tend to stay away from things with people smell.Wearing disposable gloves will help reduce the chance of transfering any scent to the bait and trap.
The key feature of this product that sold me was the optional Rat Tale attachment.Since my trap is paced in the attic and I don't want to climb up to the attic daily to check on the trap, the Rat Tale is a great option to have.Rat Tale is a remote monitoring attachment to the Rat Zapper Ultra and it notifies me by flashing red light when ever there is a catch, so I only need to climb up to the attic when I see the Rat Tale flashing.One draw back of the Rat Tale is that is uses it's own internal battery for power and I'm sometimes worried that it might run out of power before I noice that there has been a catch.I really prefer to deal with the catch while it is fresh than to deal with smelly decomposed mess.The Rat tale is rated to run flashing alert for 20 days, so maybe it's not really an issue if you check on it on a regular basis.
The Rat Zapper Ultra is a great mess free trap. Add the Rat Tale, it is truely convient when the trap needs to be place at inconvient locations.For total cost of $68 for both, it is turely worth it.There are other more expensive traps with true wireless remote monitoring ability out there, but they are very expensive.The Rat Zapper Ultra is the best solution for the lowest cost.I only wish I bought this earlier before I hade experimented with glue traps and snap traps.The glue traps and snap traps are messy and they don't work well at all.
