I am working on a project in Canada where the Pest Management vendor uses a product called "Detex Blox". Detex Blox are a non-toxic rodent bait that contains no active ingredient and are only used to determine whether or not rodents are present. They are contained in a secured bait station. The reference guide states that "rodent baits are not considered least toxic under any circumstance because of their high toxicity". Where this contains no active ingredient and poses no threat, am I safe in using it on-site? Or does notification need to be sent?

So it's a fancy way of putting out food to see if you have critters?As a non-lethal, non-chemical management tool I don't see any LEED issues with it.

Exactly. If they check the block and find that it's been gnawed on, then they would replace it with a block that has an active ingredient and notification would be sent prior to application. I figured I would be alright, but thought I'd double check.
Thanks for the quick response!
