|
|
| The rabies baits come in two different forms. Both baits have a "DO NOT DISTURB" warning and a toll-free number printed on them. |
|
|
Fishmeal Polymer |
|
| This bait has a fishmeal outer shell for attracting the intended animal with the vaccine sachete tucked inside and held in by wax on both ends. |
|
|
Coated Sachet |
|
|
| The bait is adhered to the sachet, eliminating size and weight to be shipped and disbursed more economically. |
