The Truth About Rodenticides: Expert Panel and Community Q&A at Camden Public Library

Rodenticide usage for pest control is becoming rampant and has devastating impacts on wildlife. Instead of solving the problem, these poisons are killing wildlife including rodents’ natural predators, as well as pets. Rodents who eat rodenticides from bait boxes are then consumed by predators, who are poisoned in turn. Homeowners may not even know that their own pest management systems uses rodenticides and are contributing to what has been called “the new DDT.” This begs the urgent question: are rodenticides causing the next Silent Spring?
Wild Ones Midcoast Maine and Camden Public Library are partnering to present “The Truth About Rodenticides,” a community event featuring a panel of experts from around the state who will educate us about rodenticides from their unique perspectives. We will also learn about effective methods of Integrated Pest Management that don’t use these dangerous poisons. The goal of the evening is to spread awareness of this crisis, get up to date on related legislation, learn about alternatives, ask questions, share dialogue, and take a concrete step towards protecting our wildlife.
