8 Aluminum phosphide Gas Cartridges Carbon Monoxide PERC Cheetah Fumigation
9 Fumigants What s New? Aluminum Phosphide Fumigant management plan required Application sites must be posted Not labeled for use within 100 ft of occupied structure Gas Cartridge Effective against ground squirrels, not gophers Not very cost effective PERC Pressurized Exhaust Rodent Controller Up to 6 hoses per machine (treat multiple burrows at once) 50-70% efficacy with gophers; multiple treatments can reach 100% efficacy Up to 100% efficacy with Ground squirrels PERC machines for commercial sale must be registered with DPR Approved for use in schoolyards
10 Baiting Options 1 st generation anticoagulants 2 nd generation anticoagulants Strychnine Zinc phosphide Bromethalin Cholecalciferol
11 Baiting Options 1st Generation Anticoagulants 2nd Generation Anticoagulants Zinc phosphide Strychnine Ground squirrels X X Pocket gophers X X X Moles X X Voles X X Rabbits X Mice and Rats X
12 Toxic Baits What s New? 1 st generation anti-coagulants Now a restricted use material 1-7% of raptors and kit foxes exhibited exposure 2 nd generation anti-coagulants Restricted use material under some circumstances Can only purchase at Ag Supply stores, in bulk Can be used up to 50 ft from a building (labels may vary) Must use approved, tamper-proof bait station Higher risk of secondary toxicity More potent and last longer inside animal 85-90% of raptors and kit foxes exhibited exposure Strychnine Use in ag production/cultivated areas okay Cannot use in park-like areas on valley floor
