Last year, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed to classify all second-generation anti-coagulant rodenticides for restricted use, make modifications to some first-generation anti-coagulant rodenticide statuses and change application techniques within particular locations of the United States. The impacted active components consist of brodifacoum, bromadiolone, bromethalin, chlorophacinone, cholecalciferol, difenacoum, difethialone, diphacinone (and its sodium salt), strychnine, warfarin (and its sodium salt) and zinc phosphide.
American Bird Conservancy Director of Governmental Relations Hardy Kern will explain these limitations and explain the EPA’s inspiration to adopt these limitations to secure threatened types and wildlife.
Following conversation of the brand-new limitations, Urban Rodentologist Dr. Bobby Corrigan and Green Shield Certified creator Dr. Thomas Green will examine the rodent trapping, baiting, exemption and sanitation techniques that structural bug management experts can adopt to fulfill and go beyond these EPA rodenticide limitations. Dr. Corrigan is likewise a member of the Pest Management Professional Hall of Fame (Class of 2008).
This discussion gets approved for pesticide applicator license continuing education systems in Florida, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio and Pennsylvania.
