Liphatech offers a range of rodents baits, including its smaller extruded format, Generation Block, for cost-effective baiting strategies.
In the demanding world of professional pest management, choosing the right rodenticide is critical for achieving fast, reliable, and cost-effective results. When servicing large commercial accounts, the number of bait placements that can be made per pail of bait becomes an important factor to consider. Choosing a rodent bait that is flexible in application is essential to maintain profitability, ensuring bait is used strategically and without waste.
Generation Block from Liphatech was designed to provide pest management professionals with a highly flexible rodenticide bait. It is a compact 15 g extruded block, which allows for 25% more bait placements compared to competitor blocks. The smaller size bait increases the flexibility of placement, enabling pest managers to achieve wider bait distribution while using less product per site. This enhances control effectiveness while reducing operational costs.
Generation Block baits contain difethialone, which is Liphatech’s proprietary second-generation anticoagulant rodenticide (SGAR). Recognised for its single-feed lethality and rapid knockdown, difethialone delivers results in as little as 3-5 days. This speed of control allows pest management professionals to demonstrate quick results to clients – an important factor in maintaining trust and satisfaction in both residential and commercial pest control programs.
With difethialone being a second-generation active ingredient, safety and environmental responsibility remain priorities; pest management professionals must always follow the label and adhere to proper bait placement practices to minimise non-target exposure and protect surrounding ecosystems.
As well as Generation Block, Liphatech offers FirstStrike, a soft bait that also contains difethialone. Both Generation Block and Generation FirstStrike are formulated with highly attractive bait matrices, made from premium food-grade ingredients that rodents naturally seek. They are designed to deliver strong bait uptake, even in situations where competing alternative food sources are available – a common challenge in real-world pest control scenarios.
“Generation Block and FirstStrike are standout solutions in today’s rodent control market,” said Gavin Wilson, technical and marketing manager for Liphatech ANZ. “They provide a powerful combination of high palatability, consistent performance and reliability that pest management professionals can depend on. Generation’s smaller sized block allows for bait to be placed strategically, while the high uptake of FirstStrike ensures bait isn’t wasted – rodents love it.”
As a wax-free soft bait, FirstStrike maintains its integrity and attractiveness across a wide range of temperatures.
“Its food grade oil-based formulation avoids the flavour aversion associated with wax binders and offers excellent palatability. Rodents are more likely to consume lethal doses more quickly,” added Mr Wilson.
“Backed by Liphatech’s legacy of more than 70 years in research and development, innovation and industry leadership, Generation Block and Generation First Strike set a new benchmark for rodent control in Australia.
“The combination of high palatability, flexibility of use and reliability make them the go-to product for many pest management professionals,” concluded Mr Wilson.
Generation Block is available in 7.5 kg pails, while Generation FirstStrike comes in 5.5 kg pails, both tailored and sold only to the pest management industry.
Liphatech’s range of rodent baits and hardware products are available from pest control distributors nationwide.
