In this study the palatability of four commercial anticoagulant rodenticide products was estimated. Since there are several anticoagulant rodenticide bromadiolone products on the market with similar colour, granulation and arome, the palatability investigation was needed in order to estimate which product was more likely to be eaten by rodents. Relative palatability was assessed using a standard two-choice test. The products were offered to a three groups consisting of 10 mice. Two products Vizemsolon PF and Ratmodez were given to group 1. Another two products, Brodisan PF and Rodencijal P were given to group 2. After established the palatability between the two the most palatable products, Rodencijal P and Vizemsolon PF, we offered them to group 3 of 10 animals. Rodencijal P was most palatable bait testing.
