They can't go carrying pellets away Gary. The pellets make their mouths salivate and it breaks down the pellet into pasty mush.
Wax blocks need to be anchored and I found from experience are not nearly as effective as the cheapest product, Talon pellets. Talon is available quite readily to the public.
I have done comparisons often, to find the best products. Occasionally I would place three or four bait piles or blocks or liquid in the ceiling. Results speak for themselves when all of one bait is gone and others have been only sampled.
Anything with peanut paste was first to go. Wax blocks worked but not all rats fed on them. They do melt in hot ceilings and are actually designed for wet areas. As Gary mentions they do need to be anchored or have a large wire loop through them.
Cheers
