California Banned Toxic
Rat Poisons! Now, It's Florida's
Turn. | | |
In
an amazing victory for wildlife and public health,
California Governor Newsom just signed the California
Ecosystems Protection Act of 2023, which banned the use
of dangerous rat poisons! The ban specifically targets
anticoagulant rodenticide diphacinone, which is a toxic
chemical cocktail used as rat poison. The
chemical mix causes illness and death in many other wild
animals throughout the food chain, including beloved
owls, pumas, and foxes.
Sign the petition to tell the
state of Florida to follow suit and ban rat
poisons!
These
products are so dangerous that they've been found to
have poisoned at least 38 different species in
California alone. They also cause
thousands of human poisonings every single year, the
majority of which harm children. The
reality is that many people who use rat poisons don't
realize the massive negative impact they can have. This
is exactly why we can't simply rely on consumers to make
different decisions -- the poison needs to be banned
altogether. Florida must take action to
ban rat poison, just like California did! Sign the
petition now to demand
change! | | |

wildlife deaths. Act
now! |
