-based pest control company Ecologic Solution Inc. is reportedly using an innovative, poison-free alternative to eliminating rodents.

Company owner Antonio Vitti was so impressed with the simple method, developed in Italy, that he purchased the U.S., Canadian and South American rights, according to an article in the Stamford Advocate.

The special Ekomille boxes he uses are baited with dry food, and when the rodents enter the box, they drop into a solution of vinegar and orange juice.
