Water baits should be used only where no other animals or children can get to them.

• A. Can be placed anywhere
• B. Use only where no other animals or children can get to them
• C. Should be placed near food storage
• D. Should be mixed with other bait types

Answer: (B)

Safety and access control are the key ideas here. Water baits can attract a wide range of animals, including children and pets, so they must be placed only in locations where those non-targets cannot reach them. Using tamper-resistant bait stations or placing bait out of reach helps protect people and pets while still allowing the target pest to encounter the bait. Placing water baits in easily accessible areas, near food storage, or mixing them with other bait types increases the risk of accidental exposure and is not appropriate under safe-use guidelines.
