POISONS ARE HARMING WILDLIFE - A recent press release from Think Wildlife stated: "Rodenticide residues have been found in 88% of barn owls by the latest annual surveillance for the UK Rodenticide Stewardship Regime, operated by the Campaign for Responsible Rodenticide Use (CRRU). The previous year’s figure was 87%." When rodents or non-target creatures consume anticoagulant poison they can take days to die. When they are predated or scavenged, secondary poisoning can occur. THREE COUNTIES PEST CONTROL LTD are listed as supporters of CRRU. We rarely use anticoagulant bait, but prefer to use the latest innovations from Bayer and BASF, where the active ingredients are metabolised within the target creature and are not harmful to pets or wildlife that come into contact with the poisoned creature. However, these new rodenticides are very toxic and particularly require customers with pets to be compliant in the way these treatments are positioned. There are many ways that bait can be placed safely so that only the target creatures, that is rats and house mice, can consume it.
