Rat Cap enjoys strong patent protection, so there will be no comparable products. In addition, Rat Cap has other patents, which allows us to build solutions in other countries, as well as for other types of manholes with other mechanisms. Tox bait, of course, clearly belong to the past. Not only because they are so harmful to the environment, but because any serious professional believes that 95% of the time they are not touched by rats. Even expensive automatic traps that cost over 500€ or even 1,000€ are not considered a viable alternative to the Rat Cap, which costs only 19.90€ and lasts a very long time without battery/trap replacement. The automatic traps were also tested by many cities and it was found that while the trap reported killing 20 rats, reality showed (validated with camera footage) that it was not rats, but garbage or fecal remains in 90% of the cases.
