Send us a Text Message.Welcome to 'Rodenticide Chronicles Episode 3,' where we shed light on cholecalciferol toxicity, one of the most sinister rodenticide poisons. This episode unravels the enigma surrounding the clinical signs and symptoms of cholecalciferol exposure, which often start subtly with lethargy and weakness. As we discuss, the absence of a definitive test to identify the exact toxin makes it challenging for veterinarians to confirm the poisoning promptly. You'll gain a deeper understanding of the limitations and complexities of diagnosing this toxin and why waiting for results can have dire consequences. We emphasize that cholecalciferol toxicity has no quick fixes, and success stories depend on early detection and relentless dedication. Don't miss this comprehensive exploration of the intricacies of cholecalciferol toxicity, a crucial installment in 'Rodenticide Chronicles.

Anticoagulant rodenticide, a quick fix for controlling the rat and mice population, is now having an effect on birds of prey. Today, we talk to A Place Called Hope, a local raptor rehabilitator here in Connecticut, about how it's impacting birds across our state. After ingesting this poison, there is little that can be done to save the life of these birds. We'll hear about legislation to limit the use of these poisons and alternatives to rodenticide. The traditional snap traps aren't the only way to keep out the mice! Later, we hear about efforts to eliminate construction waste, an innovative way to mitigate climate change.

A movement is afoot in Massachusetts to pass a set of bills that would limit what chemicals can be used to trap or kill rodents.

Rodenticide Ban: Current Situation and Potential Solutions The current situation regarding the rodenticide ban is complex, with different regulations in place across various regions. For example, in the United States, California banned second-generation rodenticides, but others are still available for use. In the European Union, a complete ban on second-generation rodenticides has been implemented, and…
Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Paths to reducing rodenticide use in the U.S., published by Holly Elmore on April 15, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. This is the third report in a sequence of reports on reducing the use of rodenticide poisons. It is not necessary to have read the previous reports to read this one, although this report will take for granted conclusions that were discussed and weighed in depth in the previous reports. Part 1 describes why rodenticides are crueler to rodents and more dangerous for human children, pets, and wildlife than most alternative methods for removing rodents from homes, businesses, and farms. Part 2 explains why both consumers and businesses have strong incentives to continue relying on rodenticides. This report describes and ranks interventions to reduce rodenticide use in the U.S. according to their expected impact, neglectedness, and tractability. We leave aside how the interventions we discuss might change attitudes toward pest populations in the long term due to a lack of relevant evidence. The report is grouped into sections by the class of intervention: Legislative interventions, Information campaigns, Technological disruption, and Funding research. We are pessimistic about the legislative interventions that severely restrict legal rodenticide use. For example, California's recent ban on second-generation anticoagulant rodenticides (SGARs) is riddled with exemptions and may increase the use of alternatives that are even crueler to rodents. However, there are less controversial reforms, such as sanitation reform, that would reduce some rodenticide use, especially at the local level. Our top recommended intervention is investing in improved rodent birth control. [part 1] of this sequence was enthusiastic about existing EPA-approved rodent birth control ContraPest, but in part 2 we reported additional findings that led us to conclude that ContraPest is too expensive and cumbersome to replace the role that rodenticides currently play. Birth control baits that are cheaper and more versatile than Contrapest could replace rodenticide in many (though probably not all) situations. Our runner-up recommendation is to run digital information campaigns to educate the public on the costs and dangers of rodenticides. Digital advertising is cheap, and can quickly reach millions of people without having to first develop personal relationships with voters. Although the relatively grassroots approach of extant anti-rodenticide activism may be a sign that more impersonal approaches would not work, there is value in testing how much can be accomplished through mass communication alone. Table 1: A summary of the overall ranking of the 10 interventions types analyzed above. We scored Impact, Neglectedness, and Tractability holistically using High (5), Medium-High (4), Medium (3), Medium-Low (2), and Low (1), which were converted to a 5-point scale. The rankings in the right-most column are a result of adding up the numeric values that Intervention Type received in Impact, Neglectedness, and Tractability. Ties were resolved by holistically considering which intervention we believed was overall higher priority. We acknowledge that some interventions that do not look promising on their own may increase the tractability of more promising interventions. For example, obtaining local- and state-level bans may be a hassle and the results may be imperfect, but legal pressure to find alternatives may spur investment in new technology that is both more effective and humane than rodenticides. Readers may also have a personal advantage in implementing certain interventions and therefore may want to prioritize implementing those even if other interventions are more highly ranked in this report. This research is a project of Rethink Priorities. It was written by Holly Elmore. If you're...

In this VETgirl online veterinary continuing education podcast, we review anticoagulant rodenticide (ACR) toxicity in cats. First off, let's have a quick refresher on ACRs in our small animal patients! Remember that ACRs interfere with the production of clotting factors II, VII, IX, and X by inhibiting an enzyme called vitamin K1 epoxide reductase (DeClementi). When these clotting factor levels drop low enough, the patient can develop clinical manifestations of disease (e.g., hemorrhage).
