Rodenticide & Wildlife

Are You Poisoning Wildlife?
Rodent Control and our Environment

Each day our wildlife is in danger of being poisoned by homeowners, local businesses, and professional exterminators. The poison comes from common household pesticides, the most dangerous of which are called “Anticoagulant Rodenticides.” This type of poison is easily purchased and commonly used to kill rodents. 

These poisons target rats, mice, gophers and squirrels, but are also responsible for the indiscriminate deaths of hawks, owls, bobcats, coyotes, and mountain lions each year. Domestic animals like dogs and cats are especially vulnerable to these poisons.

Poison-Free Malibu, the Topanga Wild-life Youth Project (TWYP) and the To-panga Creek Watershed Committee are all helping to spread the anti-poison message. Special thanks to Kian and Joel Schulman, Malibu City, and the children and parents of the TWYP, who thank you for helping our wildlife thrive!
