Weighted rodent bait stations and related methods
Rodent bait station assemblies and methods for bundling.
1. A rodent bait station assembly having:
a bait station; and
an anchoring base integrally fixed to the bait station, the anchoring base comprising a base weight component contained within a base outer component.
2. The rodent bait station assembly of claim 1 , where:
the base weight component comprises a weight material;
the base outer component comprises a base outer material; and
the weight material and the base outer material are not the same.
3. The rodent bait station assembly of claim 2 , where the base outer material is plastic.
4. The rodent bait station assembly of claim 2 , where the bait station comprises a bait station material that is the same as the base outer material.
5. The rodent bait station assembly of claim 4 , where the base outer material and the bait station material are plastic.
6. The rodent bait station assembly of claim 1 , where the base weight component is entirely encased within the base outer component.
7. The rodent bait station assembly of claim 1 , where the anchoring base is integrally fixed to the bait station without the use of attaching hardware or adhesives.
8. The rodent bait station assembly of claim 7 , where the base outer component and the bait station are fabricated as a unitary piece.
9. The rodent bait station assembly of claim 1 , where the anchoring base is configured such that the base weight component is not removable from the anchoring base.
10. The rodent bait station assembly of claim 9 , where:
the base weight component comprises a weight material;
the base outer component comprises a base outer material; and
the weight material and the base outer material are not the same.
11. A rodent bait station assembly having:
a bait station; and
an anchoring base integrally fixed to the bait station, the anchoring base comprising:
a base outer component comprising a base outer material; and
a base weight component contained within a base outer component, the base weight component comprising a weight material;
where:
the weight material and the base outer material are not the same; and
the anchoring base is integrally fixed to the bait station without the use of attaching hardware or adhesives.
12. The rodent bait station assembly of claim 11 , where the base outer material is plastic.
13. The rodent bait station assembly of claim 11 , where the anchoring base is configured such that the base weight component is not removable from the anchoring base.
14. The rodent bait station assembly of claim 13 , where the bait station comprises a bait station material that is the same as the base outer material.
15. The rodent bait station assembly of claim 14 , where the base weight component is entirely encased within the base outer component.
16. The rodent bait station assembly of claim 15 , where the base outer material and the bait station material are plastic.
17. The rodent bait station assembly of claim 16 , where the base outer component consists essentially of the base outer material.
18. The rodent bait station assembly of claim 17 , where the base weight component consists essentially of the weight material.
19. The rodent bait station assembly of claim 18 , where the base outer component and the bait station are fabricated as a unitary piece.
20. A rodent bait station packaged bundle comprising:
a packaging container; and
a bait station assembly comprising a bait station integrally fixed to an anchoring base;
where the bait station assembly is within the packaging container.
