For bait stations to be successful, they need to be positioned correctly, i.e. in rabbit feeding areas.
For a large number of rabbits, increase the number of bait stations and spread them through areas containing rabbit signs. Rabbits have small home ranges and won't travel far to find food so you need to place stations where the sign is. Often on farmland you will find that rabbit sign is concentrated along fencelines, so fence posts make convenient objects to attach stations to. Place stations along fence line every 20-30 meter's (except where there is no sign.) Attach each station to a post with the base of the station 50- 150mm. above ground level. Place Pindone rabbit bait in the station. Some times the rabbits will discover' the feeder easier if you drop a couple of pellets on the ground directly below the station (where they will act as an attractant and will be given some protection from rain by the station). If you find concentrations of rabbit sign out in the paddock more than 20 meters from a suitable fence post use a 50mm by 50mm batten driven into the ground as an anchoring post for the bait station. Alternatively, use no. 8 wire pegs to pin the station to the ground.
