Single crystals of superconducting BaFe$_{1.8}$Co$_{0.2}$As$_2$ were exposed to neutron irradiation in a fission reactor. The introduced defects decrease the superconducting transition temperature (by about 0.3 K) and the upper critical field anisotropy (e.g. from 2.8 to 2.5 at 22 K) and enhance the critical current densities by a factor of up to about 3. These changes are discussed in the context of similar experiments on other superconducting materials.
