Generation Block is also twice as toxic to mice than bromadiolone, and is highly effective against both mice and rats.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Andrew Dickinson of Nature Safe Pest Solutions, has been using Generation Block since it was launched. \u201cI\u2019ve been in the pest control industry for 20 years and have tried many rodent baits\u00a0looking for that silver bullet,\u201d Mr Dickinson said. \u201cIn 2010, I tried Liphatech Generation Block and was immediately impressed &#8211; the rats and mice just love it. I\u2019ve used Generation Block in many challenging situations and it has never let me down.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_12160\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12160\" style=\"width: 400px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12160\" src=\"https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Liphatech-GB-pic6-copy-low-res.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"574\" srcset=\"https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Liphatech-GB-pic6-copy-low-res.jpeg 400w, https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Liphatech-GB-pic6-copy-low-res-209x300.jpeg 209w, https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Liphatech-GB-pic6-copy-low-res-139x200.jpeg 139w, https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Liphatech-GB-pic6-copy-low-res-132x190.jpeg 132w, https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Liphatech-GB-pic6-copy-low-res-73x105.jpeg 73w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-12160\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Andrew Dickinson of Nature Safe Pest Solutions installing Generation Block in a lockable bait station<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cWe were awarded a pest control contract on a commercial outdoor training centre that was surrounded by neighbouring bush and was experiencing a constant rodent issue. A site inspection showed the previous pest control company was using a different bait. We installed Generation Block and more baiting points. After the first weekly inspection we had to increase the inspection and re-baiting program from monthly to weekly as the blocks were being completely consumed. It took around two months to get the site under control; eight years on and we still use Generation Block, maintaining a happy customer and our contract.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_12159\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12159\" style=\"width: 400px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12159\" src=\"https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Liphatech-GB-pic5-copy-low-res.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Liphatech-GB-pic5-copy-low-res.jpeg 400w, https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Liphatech-GB-pic5-copy-low-res-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Liphatech-GB-pic5-copy-low-res-150x200.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Liphatech-GB-pic5-copy-low-res-143x190.jpeg 143w, https:\/\/professionalpestmanager.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Liphatech-GB-pic5-copy-low-res-79x105.jpeg 79w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-12159\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The small block size of Generation Block allows more bait placements with less product<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cGeneration Block is highly palatable and on commercial contracts the\u00a015 g block saves us money, as we get more bait placements per bucket,\u201d Mr Dickinson explained. \u201cThe icing on the cake is that Liphatech rodent control products aren\u2019t sold in hardware or supermarkets stores, only being available to pest management professionals, which give us a commercial edge in the market.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Liphatech also provides other innovative rodent control products including extruded block and soft bait rodenticides and a range of both rat and mice bait stations.
