The Protecta EVO Express is Child Resistant: EPA protocol 1.229 • tested with at least 50 children to ensure they are unable to open the station or reach inside and access the placebo bait. The Protecta EVO Express passed this test with 50 out of 50 children unable to open station or access the placebo bait. TIER 1 BAIT STATIONS The Protecta EVO Express is Dog Resistant:. EPA protocol 1.230 • requires that 6 dogs greater than 40 lbs are denied access to the bait for up to 2 hours ***Bell felt that this protocol would (and perhaps has) allowed some companies to “game” the test by choosing “passive dogs”, thus achieving a “pass” without ever actually challenging the integrity of the station Bell worked with EPA to design a more rigorous test. Bell’s EPA approved protocol • requires 12 dogs to actively interact within the first 15 minutes of exposure or the dog is disqualified. • Express passed all 12 dogs without a single failure PROTECTA EVO EXPRESS Tier 1 Certified .

Chapter 4 Pharmacokinetics of Anticoagulant Rodenticides in Target and Non-target Organisms Katherine E. Horak, Penny M. Fisher, and Brian Hopkins 1 Introduction The concentration of a compound at the site of action is a determinant of its toxicity. This principle is affected by a variety of factors including the chemical properties of the compound (pKa, lipophilicity, molecular size), receptor binding affinity, route of exposure, and physiological properties of the organism. Many compounds have to undergo chemical changes, biotransformation, into more toxic or less toxic forms. Because of all of these variables, predicting toxic effects and performing risk assess- ments of compounds based solely on dose are less accurate than those that include data on absorption, distribution, metabolism (biotransformation), and excretion of the compound.

  • Hazardous Materials List
    Hazardous Materials List Version: 1.12.2016 v 1.4 All agrochemicals, especially pesticides, can be potentially hazardous in some form or other to human and animal health as well as to the environment and therefore should be used only under caution. Fairtrade International recommends the use of other methods like proper choice of crops and varieties, suitable cultivation practices and biological material for pest, before a chemical pesticide is used for pest control. The Hazardous Materials List (HML) is divided in three lists: the Red List, the Orange List and the Yellow List. Red List: The Red List is a ‘prohibited’ list and includes materials that must not be used on Fairtrade products. Orange List: The Orange List is a ‘restricted’ List and includes materials that may be used under conditions specified in this document thus restricting their use. The use of materials in this list will be monitored by Fairtrade International. Operators should be aware that some of these materials are to be phased out by 30 June 2020 or by 30 June 2022 as indicated in the list. The other materials in the list may eventually be prohibited and are encouraged to abandon their use. Yellow List: The Yellow List is a ‘flagged’ list and includes materials which are flagged for being hazardous and should be used under extreme caution. Fairtrade International will be monitoring the classification of these materials by international bodies like PAN, WHO and FAO, and materials may be prohibited in the future. Operators are encouraged to abandon their use. Classification of materials in the HML The Hazardous Materials List includes materials that are identified as Highly Hazardous as defined in the Code of Conduct on Pesticide Management adopted by FAO and WHO in 2013.

  • Prohibited and Restricted Pesticides List Fair Trade USA® Agricultural Production Standard Version 1.1.0
    Version 1.1.0 Prohibited and Restricted Pesticides List Fair Trade USA® Agricultural Production Standard Version 1.1.0 Introduction Through the implementation of our standards, Fair Trade USA aims to promote sustainable livelihoods and safe working conditions, protection of the environment, and strong, transparent supply chains.. Our standards work to limit negative impacts on communities and the environment. All pesticides can be potentially hazardous to human health and the environment, both on the farm and in the community. They can negatively affect the long-term sustainability of agricultural livelihoods. The Fair Trade USA Agricultural Production Standard (APS) seeks to minimize these risks from pesticides by restricting the use of highly hazardous pesticides and enhancing the implementation of risk mitigation practices for lower risk pesticides. This approach allows greater flexibility for producers, while balancing controls on impacts to human and environmental health. This document lists the pesticides that are prohibited or restricted in the production of Fair Trade CertifiedTM products, as required in Objective 4.4.2 of the APS. It also includes additional rules for the use of restricted pesticides. Purpose The purpose of this document is to outline the rules which prohibit or restrict the use of hazardous pesticides in the production of Fair Trade Certified agricultural products. Scope • The Prohibited and Restricted Pesticides List (PRPL) applies to all crops certified against the Fair Trade USA Agricultural Production Standard (APS). • Restrictions outlined in this list apply to active ingredients in any pesticide used by parties included in the scope of the Certificate while handling Fair Trade Certified products.

    National Wildlife Research Center Wildlife Services Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service United States Department of Agriculture Title: Efficacy of rodenticide baits for the control of black rats, Polynesian rats, and mice. Study Director: William C. Pitt, Supervisory Research Wildlife Biologist, Hilo, HI Sponsor: Hawaii Invasive Species Council 1151 Punchbowl Street, Room 325 Honolulu, HI 96813 Testing Facility: USDA/APHIS/WS National Wildlife Research Center Hawaii Field Station PO Box 10880 Hilo, HI 96721 Executive Summary: 1. We tested the efficacy and palatability of 9 commercial rodenticide formulations on 165 Polynesian rats (Rattus exulans), 160 black rats (R. rattus), and 130 house mice (Mus musculus). 2. Efficacy varied by rodenticide tested and rodent species of interest. On average, rodenticides were more effective against mice than either of the rat species and mice tended to eat more rodenticide bait than laboratory chow. 3. Efficacy was highest for the second generation anticoagulants tested (Havoc® (brodifacoum), Maki® (bromadiolone), and Generation® (difethialone)). However, this varied across products and a first generation rodenticide, Rozol® (chlorophacinone), had similar effectiveness to the second generation anticoagulants. 4. Palatability varied by rodenticide tested and rodent species of interest. Palatability was the lowest for the acute rodenticides. 5. Palatability affected the efficacy of rodenticides. Rodenticides that were not preferred by rodents had lower mortality rates. Rodenticides that were preferred had high mortality rates. 6. Rodenticide products currently registered for use in Hawaii were not as effective as other products on rodents found in Hawaii. Although some of the other products have higher toxicity, some products were highly effective and are considered similar in toxicity to products currently registered.

About 160 ewes died out of 800, and 1080 poisoning was confirmed. It is reported that errors were made in the analysis of bait tested to determine if it was safe to stock. Recently a workshop on 1080 analysis was held at Invermay AHL. These are the recommendations for sampling: 1) Take the samples from the animals which are first to die in the outbreak even though they may be more autolysed. 2) The best specimens in order of preference are muscle, stomach contents then liver 1080 poisoning. 26. 1976.

  • LONG-LASTING ANTI-COAGULANTS (Super Warfarin)
    LONG-LASTING ANTI-COAGULANTS (Super Warfarin) I. Protocol Overview Warfarin (Coumadin, or bis-hydroxycoumarin) is used therapeutically as anticoagulants and commercially as rodenticides. Several long-acting coumarin derivatives, or superwarfarins (brodifacoum, diphenadione, chlorophacinone, bromadiolone) are used as rodenticides and can produce profound and prolonged anticoagulation. Most patients are asymptomatic after an unintentional ingestion. Signs of decreased clotting ability (coagulopathy) typically occur within 24-72 hours post significant ingestion of a long-acting anticoagulant, and may present as nose and gum (epistaxis, gingival) bleeding, as well as bloody vomit, urine, feces, or uterus, (hematemesis, hematuria, hematochezia, menometrorrhagia), discoloration, splotching, and bleeding of the skin, tissues, and brain (ecchymosis, petechial hemorrhages, intracranial hemorrhages) or bleeding not in proportion with the injury. For all suspected chemical exposures, consult the Poison Control Center (800-222-1222) located at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. Information and treatment advice is available to the public and healthcare professionals at no charge. Long-lasting anticoagulants are detected indirectly through prolonged prothrombin time (PT) and international normalized ratio (INR) (24 to 72 hours after exposure) persisting for weeks to months, as determined by hospital laboratory tests or abnormal assays for factors II and VII in patients with unexplained bleeding and a normal PT, partial thromboplastin time, or INR, as determined by hospital or commercial laboratory tests. Serum levels of long lasting anticoagulant rodenticides can be determined using High-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) methods with ultraviolet (UV) and fluorescence detection. Liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) methods are used to detect long lasting anticoagulant rodenticides in food and environmental samples.
