Some of you are going to hate me, but I use that Patron in my garden to get rid of fist size crabs when I return in Nov. They eat the roots of my plants, killing them. I have tried flooding the holes and then attempting to catch them with tongs when they appear. that worked a total of twice in 15 years catching only two of them. They are fast buggers. I add Patron to masa and put it down the holes. No more crabs. Sorry folks...leaving them alone is more destructive. This product is poisonous and should not be used where pets could have access to it.
