Why Using Poison for Mouse Infestations is Harmful

Are you dealing with a pesky mouse infestation in your home? Before reaching for poison as a solution, consider the potential risks and explore safer alternatives. Using poison to get rid of mice may seem like a quick fix, but it comes with serious consequences that can affect not only the rodents but also your family, pets, and the environment. Poison is a hazardous method for pest control for several reasons. Firstly, poisoned mice that die inside your walls or ceilings can create foul odours that are difficult to eliminate. The decomposition process of the poisoned mice can attract other pests and lead to a secondary infestation. Moreover, pets and children may accidentally come into contact with the poison, resulting in potential harm or even fatalities.


Instead of resorting to poison, consider using traps as a more humane and targeted way to control mouse infestations. Traps allow you to capture the mice alive, giving you the opportunity to release them back into the wild or dispose of them in a safe manner. Additionally, traps are reusable and do not pose the same dangers to your household members or the environment as poison does. When conducting pest control at home, it is crucial to adhere to the Campaign for Responsible Rodenticide Use (CRRU) guidelines. These guidelines promote the responsible and effective management of rodent populations while minimizing harm to other wildlife, pets, and humans. By following these guidelines, you can ensure that your pest control efforts are both effective and environmentally friendly.
