Abstract
The poison bait station device is for elimination of rodents such as mice. The device includes an elongated tubular housing having a rodent entrance at one end and an end wall at an opposite end thereof, with a through-hole in the end wall. A bait station line (e.g. wire or cable) extends through the through-hole and includes a bait attachment feature at a first end thereof configured to be extended out through the rodent entrance for attaching poison bait thereto, and configured to be retracted within the elongated tubular housing for safely setting the poison bait therein. A structure attachment feature is at an opposite end of the bait station line and is configured to be securely attached to a structure in a local environment.
