Philproof® Mini Possum Bait Station
The Philproof® Mini Possum Bait Station is our most popular and versatile bait station, trusted for possum and rodent control across New Zealand, Australia, and internationally. Compact, durable, and easy to service, it offers an ideal balance between capacity and footprint, making it a go-to choice for landowners, contractors, councils, and conservation projects alike.
Designed for real field conditions, the Philproof Mini is fully weatherproof and holds up to 800g of bait. It protects bait from rain and moisture while remaining accessible to target species, helping maintain bait palatability between service visits. A removable base allows quick, clean refilling on bait lines where efficiency matters.
Why the Philproof Mini Is the Preferred Choice
- Proven 800g capacity – ideal where a large 1.8kg station is unnecessary
- Fully weatherproof design to protect bait in exposed environments
- Removable base for fast, easy servicing in the field
- Secure mounting to trees or posts with supplied hardware
- Rugged, UV-treated construction built for long service life
- Highly versatile – suitable for possum lines or tighter rodent grids
Compatible Baits & Accessories
The Philproof Mini is commonly used with Pestoff possum pellets and Pindone possum and rat bait. It is also compatible with the Philproof® Reversible Multi-Pest Floor (sold separately), allowing the use of bait blocks or alternative bait presentations depending on the target species and control strategy.
How It Works
Target animals enter the station to access sheltered bait, reducing exposure to weather and minimising non-target interference. The internal layout supports reliable feeding, while the removable base simplifies maintenance and bait replacement. Its compact form makes it well suited to dense bait lines or locations where access is restricted.

Typical Use & Placement
Spacing depends on terrain, access, and control objectives, but common field guidelines include:
- For possum control: approximately 100–150 metres apart
- For rodent control: approximately 50 metres apart
Mount stations securely to trees or posts, keeping entrances clear so bait remains accessible and dry. Always adjust placement and spacing based on site conditions, target species, and bait label requirements.
Safety & Responsible Use
All toxic baits must be used strictly in accordance with the manufacturer’s label and Safety Data Sheet (SDS). Secure stations firmly to prevent movement or removal, minimise access by non-target animals, remove old bait before refilling, and avoid ground spillage during servicing. Signpost bait stations where required in public or shared areas.
Proven in Conservation Programmes
Philproof® bait stations are used in conservation programmes around the world, including in efforts to protect critically endangered bird species in remote Pacific island environments. Their use in sensitive, high-stakes conservation settings reflects the importance of secure bait presentation and durable, field-proven design.
