With so many untargeted creatures being accidentally poisoned, Think Wildlife has called for stricter measures to be introduced in a bid to protect them.<\/p>\n
When looking for a pest control provider, it\u2019s very important to ensure they\u2019re adhering to the CRRU code. Not only will this help to ensure that innocent animals are being protected, also because if rodenticides aren\u2019t used properly, we risk losing them completely.<\/p>\n
A company which is complying with new regulations should adhere to the following 10 points as highlighted in the CRRU code of practice:<\/p>\n
\u2022 Only using rodenticide baits for the minimum period that will achieve control. Most infestations can be completely controlled within 35 days<\/strong> If you\u2019re unsure about any of the points mentioned above, please discuss this with your pest control provider. They should be more than happy to take the time to discuss the CRRU code with you and explain what it means and how you might be affected.<\/p>\n If your premises is deemed high risk or if rodenticides will need to remain on your site for a prolonged period of time, Prokill may undertake a long-term baiting strategy. If this is the case, we will fully comply with CRRU guidelines and the statutory elements of the product label.<\/p>\n For further information about our pest control services or to learn more about the CRRU, please feel free to contact Prokill<\/a> and we will be more than happy to help.
