RAT KILLING BULB DISCOVERED,
Harmless To Other
Animals.
(Reuter's Special Mall Service).. Boise, Idaho..
An oriental flower bulb has heen found which it is claimed will destroy rats and harm no thing else.ESE
Such is the report of the Bilogi- cal Survey station here, where the bulbs, known as red squill, has come as a boon and a reliet from worry.
Its operation is based on the discovery that rats seemingly can not, vomit....
As explained by a member of the staff, it sets up a violent ir- ritation when eaten by rats or other, animal mixtures of grain mash or other bait. All other animals, once the irritation starts, immediately emit the mix- ture and are unharmed. Rats: cannot do anything like that, however, and perish from the effects.
The bulb itself is like an en-. larged tulip bulb, three to five inches in diameter and of orange- red colour.
