Massachusetts Regulations: Wildlife

 Speak Up for Wildlife

This legislation would monitor and reduce the use of Second Generation Anticoagulant Rodenticides (SGARs) in Massachusetts to protect wildlife and pets. SGARs are a particularly toxic group of poisons used as a form of rodent control. These poisons, when ingested, prevent the clotting of blood, and cause the animal that ingested it to sustain heavy internal bleeding, which eventually causes death.
