    Shake and Bake for ZP?

    I am cleaning up zinc phosphide from a previous applicator, and I was told it was ok to use molasses to bind it when I was done cleaning it up. The ZP is mixed with corn and sunflower seeds. I was wondering what you thought, if the molasses would activate the ZP. Thanks Jaime
