The single dose ( acute poisons) such as Zink phosphate kill rodents rapidly after one intake.
This method does however not give a high percentage kill, because rodents feed slowly on a poisoned bait.
When they experience uncomfortable symptoms they cease feeding often, before having taken a lethal dose, Their reaction and the reaction of those animals having taken a lethal dose and which have painful symptoms will warm the colony who may not touch the toxicant for as much as six months or more, This acute poisons present a hazard to men and domestic animals.
