Storm

Professional rodent control for crop protection

Rodent pressure on fields of sunflower, potato, corn, or small grains can lead to significant economic losses. The "Storm" rodenticide, manufactured by BASF (at the Sorex facilities in the UK), serves as a potent, high-efficacy solution designed for agricultural environments where traditional methods fail to curb population spikes.

Practical application in the field

The product utilizes flocoumafen, a second-generation anticoagulant. Its primary advantage in agricultural operations is its lethal effect after a single ingestion. This reduces the labor required for repeated applications and ensures that even the most cautious rodents within a colony are neutralized.

• Targeted Operations: Farmers use Storm primarily for spot-treating rodent burrows, field margins, and grain storage perimeters where activity is at its peak.
• Cumulative Action: The anticoagulant properties ensure death occurs 3-5 days after consumption, preventing the colony from linking the fatality to the bait source.
• Safety Standards: Classified under Hazard Class 1, this product requires strict adherence to safety protocols. When applying in an agricultural setting, it is critical to ensure the bait is inaccessible to livestock and wildlife through proper placement techniques.

"Storm" remains a standard in large-scale farming for rapid population control. Whether managing rodent outbreaks in corn rows or protecting post-harvest storage facilities, this BASF-manufactured tool offers a reliable, low-effort path to protecting your harvest from heavy losses.
