Bird-lovers across Australia are joining together to stop bird-killing rodent poisons – will you join them?
The most dangerous rodent poisons are Second-generation Anticoagulant Rodenticides, or SGARs, which are lethal to rodents, but not immediately. These poisoned rats and mice turn into walking time bombs that can kill wildlife and even pets that eat them.
Many local councils contribute to this problem, by using SGARs in their pest management.
Luckily the alternatives to SGARs are easy to use and just as effective. We’ve made it even easier for local governments to make the switch by producing a toolkit that steps them through the process.
We just need enough local residents like you to ask them to make the switch so that they can’t say no!
For more information about how to take action on SGARs including our Action Kit for Councils check out our website.
