Description
PIGOUT® Feral Pig Bait is a factory-prepared, shelf-stable bait for the control of feral pigs.
The bait is made with a sturdy, fish-flavoured cereal matrix, specially flavoured and dyed to maximise uptake by pigs and minimise uptake by birds and other non-target species. The bait is strengthened by an edible bio-degradable cellulose skin also designed to reduce non-target uptake, ensure ease of handling and increase the resilience of the bait when deployed from the air.
PIGOUT® baits have proven to be more target specific for feral pigs than other commonly used bait types such as meat and grain due to their size and appeal to an omnivorous diet.
Each bait contains 72 mg of 1080 contained in a patented toxin delivery system that is incorporated into the centre of each bait. The bait core is designed to minimise migration of poison into the surrounding bait matrix.
Field research with both toxic and non-toxic PIGOUT® baits has indicated that most non-target animals (including livestock) that visit bait sites are unlikely to eat significant portions of the baits.
As the poison is localised in the patented core, the bait matrix itself contains virtually no poison, thus non-target animals can consume part of the bait with reduced risk of consuming a lethal dose of the toxin.
