Commensal rodents pose health risks and cause substantial damage to
property and food supplies. Rats have also invaded islands and pose
a serious threat to native wildlife, particularly raptors and
seabirds. Estimates of total damage from introduced rats range into
the billions of dollars in developed countries. This book aims to
provide a state-of-the-art overview of the scientific advancements
in the assessment of exposure, effects and risks that currently
used rodenticides may pose to non-target organisms in the
environment, along with practical guidance for characterization of
hazards. This will be discussed in relation to their efficacy, and
the societal needs for rodent control, and discussion of risk
mitigation and development of alternatives. The flow in the book is
planned as: a. introduction and setting the scene b. problem
description (risks and effects on non-targets and secondary
poisoning, development of resistance) c. ; alternatives, regulation
and risk mitigation d. conclusions and recommendations
