Overview
- This book provides an in-depth yet broad overview on the risks that rodenticides may pose to wildlife, ranging from the biochemical and pharmacokinetic level to ecological field observations affecting secondary exposure
- Dedicated chapters focus on alternative method for rodent control, including Integrated Pest Management, and on the challenge of development of resistance, with potential implications for their regulation and risk mitigation
- Consideration of how to detect non-target? rodenticide poisoning in wildlife in the field, and chapters that outline how ecological, landscape and variation in control practices affect exposure and poisoning, make this book not just a scientific overview, but a reference text and a source of practical guidance to scientists, users and even interested members of the public
