Neosorexa® Plus Blocks Experience Hub

Welcome to the Neosorexa® Plus Blocks Experience Hub! Neosorexa® Plus Blocks provides the palatability of a soft block and the durability of a hard block.

We at BASF understand your pest control needs and provide a range of innovative solutions to control rodent pests. BASF has developed a new rodent bait that provides the palatability of a soft block and the durability of a hard block, combining the best of both.

Customer´s needs

Improved palatability, dependable control and reliable stability in extreme climates.

BASF is committed to providing innovative solutions for urban and rural pest control.
Neosorexa® Plus Blocks is a palatable product, providing pest control operators with a fast and reliable solution to control the toughest rodent infestations.

Neosorexa® Plus Blocks - Addressing the urgent needs of the market

  • More Palatable. Even with attractive alternative food sources available.
  • Effective. Highly effective against rats and mice including those resistant to anticoagulants.*
  • Durable and Stable. Works well in extreme temperatures.

Pest management professionals and the general public now have a highly effective, durable solution.

Urban surroundings

Whether food-processing facilities, commercial kitchens, backyards or warehouses, urban sites are highly susceptible to rodent infestations.

Once rodents invade, they reproduce quickly and can become a serious health risk and cause significant damage to buildings and properties.

Rats contaminate and destroy enough food worldwide each year to feed 200 million people.

In many big cities in Europe there are more rodents than residents, e.g. in Paris there are 2.5 times more rodents than residents.

Rural surroundings

Given enough time, rodents can cause significant problems in rural environments such as livestock or agricultural farms and food processing plants.

Rural sites provide plenty of food, water and shelter for rodents. Once they move in, they reproduce quickly and can become a serious health risk to animals and agricultural produce.

The adaptability and agility of rodents makes controlling them particularly difficult.

Each year, rodents destroy approximately 20 percent of all the agricultural products in the world.

How we solved the issue

 Neosorexa® Bait Blocks controls rodent infestations effectively. To mitigate resistance, and increase palatability, we reformulated the original Neosorexa® Bait Blocks including replacing the wax binder.

As less binder is required, more palatable ingredients can be used per bait, making it more appealing than many wax-based rodenticides.

It is twice as palatable as leading anticoagulant bait blocks and withstands extremely hot and humid weather conditions. The single-feed bait blocks are ideally suited for the control of rats and mice in locations where competing food sources are readily available.

Innovation – what`s new

Key advantages - Compared to 50 ppm anticoagulant baits:

  • New, highly palatable formulation; at least twice as palatable as leading anticoagulant block baits
  • Improved human health profile by reducing the flocoumafen concentration from 50 ppm (parts per million) to 25 ppm
  • Single-feed - as efficacious as Neosorexa® Bait Blocks 50 ppm, also against anticoagulant-resistant strains

Our vision at BASF

BASF is committed to supporting the industry in reducing pest infestations, by developing a more palatable product formulation with an improved human health profile in a securable block bait. Giving pest management professionals and other applicators, including general public users, a highly effective solution. We continue to create chemistry for a better tomorrow.

More Palatable. Even with attractive alternative food sources available

Unlike conventional block baits Neosorexa® Plus Blocks contains an innovative BASF binder instead of wax. As less binder is required, more palatable ingredients can be used in the formulation, making it more appealing than many wax-based rodenticides. Neosorexa® Plus Blocks is very appealing to rats and mice, including situations where attractive alternative food sources are readily available.

Highly effective against rats and mice

Once rodents invade, they reproduce quickly, consume and contaminate food sources, spread life threatening diseases and damage and destroy structural facilities. If an infestation continues, the rodent population can rapidly escalate, causing exponential damage to operations and business. In this situation you want to rely on Neosorexa Plus Blocks outstanding performance and features:

Single Feed

Less Bait

Reliable Control

New formulation

Durable and Stable. Works well in extreme temperatures

Outstanding performance also in extreme hot and cold climates compared to many wax based baits. The temperature extremes often found in farming and industrial environments will not affect the stability and effectiveness of Neosorexa® Plus Blocks. No significant effect on the palatability of Neosorexa® Plus Blocks was observed after the extreme humidity, heat and cold tests.

Frost stability

Heat stability

Strain Resistance to anticoagulants Mortality
Wild-derived mice Susceptible 100%
Wild-derived mice Resistant to bromadiolone 100%
Wild-derived R.rattus Susceptible 100%
Wild-derived R.norvegicus Resistant to difemacoum & bromadiolone 100%
