Abstract
Adhesive rodent glue boards are compactly packaged in a flexible plastic wrapper. Thermoformed glue-containing boards have protruding dam walls which extend upwardly from a base wall to define a reservoir for rodent-entrapping glue. The boards have a peripheral rim below the level of the glue. A paperboard sleeve extends between the rim of a first board and the rim of an overlying, inverted, second board, to maintain the glue of the two boards in spaced, non-contacting, relation. The glue extends to a level proximate the upper lip of the dam wall, allowing the board to present a lower profile to targeted rodents.
