The bait preference of the Indian field mouse, M. booduga, was evaluated. Results revealed that normal rice grain, cracked rice grain, rice + 4% coconut oil and millet + 2% coconut oil may be used as effective poison carriers for the field mouse. Additives like oil, sugar and salt did not improve the palatability of bait materials.
