Protecta EVO EXPRESS recently passed all requirements necessary for Bell to certify it as a Tier 1 bait station. For a station to receive this prestigious distinction, it must pass U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)-established protocols that demonstrate resistance to children and dogs, as well as possessing performance features for weather resistance. EPA protocol 1.229 requires that a station be tested with at least 50 children to ensure they are unable to open the station or reach inside and access the placebo bait. The Protecta EVO EXPRESS passed this test with 50 out of 50 children unable to open the station or access the placebo bait. EPA protocol 1.230 requires that six dogs are denied access to the bait for up to 2 hours. The Protecta EVO EXPRESS passed 12 dogs — double the requirement — without a single failure.
