Luxan buying guide: which product for which pest?
The Luxan range covers rodents, crawling and flying insects and a few outdoor cleaning jobs. The right choice depends on the pest, the place where you will use the product and whether children or pets can reach that spot. The table gives a quick overview of the main product types in this collection.

| Traps and bait stations | Mice without bait, or rats with shielded bait | Wooden snap traps, rat box with clamp | €2.99 |

Mouse bait: paste, grain or blocks?
Luxan Tomorin is available as paste and as grain, in single 10 g bait boxes, in packs of two and as the Tomorin Ready-to-go set. Paste is soft, attractive to mice and stays usable in slightly damp places such as cellars and crawl spaces. Grain suits dry places such as attics, garages and storage rooms. Blocks such as Sorkil Bloc are easy to secure in a bait station. For a larger infestation or several buildings, bigger packs such as Brodilux Paste 800 g or Grain for mice 100 g (10 x 10 g) are more economical.
- Place bait along walls and near droppings or gnaw marks, because mice like to run along edges.
- Use several small bait points a few metres apart rather than one large amount in one spot.
- Check the bait regularly, replace eaten bait and follow the label for the duration of the treatment.
- Wear gloves, and remove dead rodents and leftover bait as described on the label.
Traps and bait stations
If you prefer not to use bait, the Luxan Mouse Trap Wood (2 pieces) is a simple, low-cost snap trap. Bait it with a little peanut butter or chocolate and set it at a right angle to the wall. For rats, the Luxan Rat Box with transparent clamp is a closed station in which the bait stays in place, so it is harder to reach for children, pets and other animals.
Ants, flies and silverfish
Ant bait boxes work best when you place them directly on an active trail, so that the worker ants carry the bait back to the nest. Do not spray insecticide around the box during this time. Luxan ECO Ant Powder is sprinkled along trails, cracks and entry points. Flycatchers and fly strips are hung near windows, bins, in stables or in sheds, wherever flies gather. Put the Luxan Silverfish Trap in bathrooms, kitchens and other humid rooms where silverfish are active at night. Sprays such as Vermigon Spray 400 ml are meant for targeted treatment; check the label for the insects and surfaces they are suitable for.
Indoor repellers and outdoor cleaning
Luxan indoor repellers are chosen by floor area: one room up to 90 m², a small house up to 230 m² and a larger house up to 370 m². Pick the version that matches the space you want to cover. Outdoors, Luxan Algae Killer and Luxan ECO Terrace Cleaner Concentrate help remove green deposits from paving and terraces. Dilute concentrates as stated on the label and apply them in dry weather.

Frequently asked questions
What does the Luxan range include?
Luxan offers products against pests in and around the home. At BYDOO you will find mouse bait such as Tomorin, Brodilux, Sorkil and Rexit, wooden mouse traps, a rat box, ant bait boxes and ECO ant powder, fly catchers and fly strips, a silverfish trap, insect sprays, indoor repellers and outdoor cleaners for algae and terraces.
Should I choose Luxan Tomorin paste or grain?
Luxan Tomorin comes as paste and as grain, both in ready-to-use 10 g bait boxes. Paste is soft and attractive to mice and suits damper spots such as cellars and crawl spaces. Grain is a good choice in dry areas such as attics, garages and sheds. Always follow the label for the number of bait points and where to place them.
What is the best ant killer for indoors?
Indoors, ant bait boxes are a practical choice because the ants carry the bait back to the nest, which also reaches ants you never see. Place the box on an active trail and do not clean the trail or spray around it during treatment. Luxan ECO Ant Powder can be used along cracks and entry points. Always read the label first.
How do I use mouse bait responsibly with children and pets at home?
Only use bait in closed bait boxes or a bait station, such as the ready-to-use Tomorin bait boxes or the Luxan Rat Box. Place them out of reach of children and pets, along walls and behind furniture. Wear gloves, check the stations regularly, remove dead rodents and keep leftover bait in its original packaging. Always read the label before use.
How fast is Luxan delivered and can I return it?
