Why Not Rat Poison?
• It’s dangerous: According to the Environmental Protection Agency, 15,000 children under six annually ingest rat poison that was placed around the houses. And it’s not just kids who are attracted to this substance – household pets are, as well. • It’s an environmental hazard. Rat poison that is placed outdoors to ward off rodents can also have an adverse effect on crops; it’s a toxic substance, and can kill nearby plants, in addition to deer, rabbits, and other animals.
