Billboard text - Rat Poison Kills all the way up the food chain. NewhouseWildlifeRescue.org

help us ban SECOND GENERATION ANTI COAGULENT RODEnticides

Join the fight

Many animal welfare groups in Massachusetts and across the country are pushing to ban the use of anticoagulant rodenticides as they are killing non-target species.


Many wildlife rehabilitators are witnessing an increase in secondary rodenticide poisoning among predator species that consume poisoned rats and mice. When predators like hawks, owls, and foxes succumb to these toxins, the rodent population surges, worsening the very problem rodenticides are meant to control. Each of these animals can eliminate over a thousand rodents annually, making them essential allies in natural pest management.


Resources:

Short Video - Rodenticides 101  Created by Save Massachusetts Wildlife Education Fund (SMWEF) 

 

Integrated Pest Management Presentation - Authored by local activists, this resource provides products (with links) for all phases of IPM (i.e. prevention, monitoring, and treatment / control). It also provides links to resources and more. 


Recommendations:

Newhouse recommends these pest control companies that don't use anti-coagulant poisons:

  • Banner Pest Control (Dracut, MA)
  • Call of The Wild (Wales, MA)
