Hey all! So first off....I use baking soda at the bottom of my guy's cage...under it's floor's griddle...to help with odor. This was recommended to me online. It works. But now I read it kills rats. Is this a danger to my lil one? Finally, after losing a wild to rat trap poison this week, it was recommended to me to cover city rat trap bait boxes with synthetic motor oil. In that it would repel animals. Is this also a safe practice? Hate to poison them further. Thanks!!!!
