Anticoagulant Rodenticides and Wildlife

Commensal rodents consume and spoil crops and food supplies, cause  property damage and can be vectors for disease. Rats have also invaded islands and can pose a serious threat to native wildlife, particularly seabirds. Estimates of rodent damage range into the billions of dollars in developed count...
