Where the facts come from

Product facts (what is in a pack, the count, where the package says the station can go) come from the product's own description and package photographs. Prices come from our scheduled catalog update. We do not print a claim about safety that is not written on the product, and we never call any rodent bait safe for children or pets.

Public sources

Our guides lean on public agencies and university extension services: the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Poison Control (National Capital Poison Center), animal poison control lines and university pest management programs. Every source is opened and read before a sentence cites it, and the date we read it is printed with it.

Ratings

The star rating and the number of ratings on a product come from the shoppers of our retail partner, as of our last update. Several packs of one d-CON product share one pool of ratings, and we count that pool once.

Corrections

If you find a mistake, write to baitdesk@d-con.co. We fix facts first and note the change in the next catalog update.
