FAQ’s:
What makes MAC Lure Cinnamon Rodent Lure 500 ml a reliable solution for food-safe environments?
MAC Lure Cinnamon Rodent Lure 500 ml is a non food based rodent lure NZ specifically engineered for sensitive, high-compliance areas such as food-manufacturing plants, healthcare facilities, and hospitality venues. Its cinnamon-scented formula attracts rodents without introducing food contaminants, making it ideal for use under strict MPI C15 and C52-type hygiene controls.
Unlike traditional baits, this product uses scent-triggered behavioural attraction rather than ingestion. It remains effective for extended periods, even in cool or humid storage zones. Because it’s made in New Zealand, it also supports local industry and short-supply delivery.
For businesses seeking a full pest-control solution, pair MAC Lure Cinnamon with MAC Slay Cockroach Bait or MAC Ant Bait for complete coverage across crawling pests.

How should MAC Lure Cinnamon be applied for maximum performance in industrial pest control settings?
In industrial pest control NZ operations, correct placement determines success. Apply small dots (approx. 0.1 g) of MAC Lure Cinnamon along walls, runways, and near entry points where rodents are active. Position it strategically to lead directly into traps — the cinnamon scent guides rodents naturally along the path.
Avoid placing the lure on dusty or greasy surfaces, as contamination may reduce scent diffusion. Re-apply every 2–3 weeks or after cleaning. Because this lure contains no food ingredients, it avoids competing odours from kitchens or manufacturing plants — making it highly effective in commercial pest control Auckland and food-grade processing facilities.
Why choose a non-food based rodent lure for pest control in NZ food and health sectors?
Food safety and compliance are paramount concerns for any business operating within New Zealand’s highly regulated food, healthcare, and commercial sectors. Facilities such as food manufacturing plants, warehouses, hospitals, and schools must maintain the strictest hygiene standards—not just to pass audits, but to protect consumers and maintain operational integrity. One often-overlooked risk in these environments is the potential for pest control products themselves to become sources of contamination, particularly when food-based lures are used to attract rodents.
MAC Lure Cinnamon Non Food Based Rodent Lure was developed specifically to address this challenge. Unlike traditional rodent baits and lures made from peanut butter, grains, or other food ingredients, MAC Lure Cinnamon contains no food proteins or allergenic materials. This means it poses zero risk of introducing allergens or non-compliant food residues into sensitive areas. For operations that must adhere to strict allergen management protocols or maintain “free-from” claims, this is a crucial advantage—helping prevent costly recalls, audit failures, or even the loss of export certification.
Another advantage is the highly targeted mode of action. The unique cinnamon scent is exceptionally attractive to rats and mice, stimulating natural foraging instincts without drawing the attention of non-target species such as insects. This reduces false trap activations, increases catch rates, and keeps pest management programmes both efficient and cost-effective. Insects, which may be a problem with sweet or food-based lures, are not attracted to the cinnamon formula, so cleaning and maintenance time is reduced, and bait stations remain active for longer periods.
Compliance with New Zealand’s MPI (Ministry for Primary Industries) pest control guidelines is non-negotiable for businesses in food production and handling. MAC Lure Cinnamon is MPI-compliant, which means it can be used in critical environments where both safety and documentation are scrutinised during inspections. Using an approved, non-food based rodent attractant helps companies demonstrate due diligence and proactive risk management during audits—offering peace of mind and supporting a strong reputation for food safety.
