Autumn rat control essentials for poultry units

At this time of year on poultry units, it makes good sense to reinforce defences against the annual migration of rats to farm buildings, according to chairman of the Campaign for Responsible Rodenticide Use (CRRU) Dr Alan Buckle. However, he says effective defences involve more than just distributing rodenticides around the unit, and owners and managers should be aware that misuse could put them at risk of prosecution.
