The next generation of rodent eradications: Innovative technologies and tools to improve species specificity and increase their feasibility on islands

2015-05-01

Abstract excerpt

Rodents remain one of the most widespread and damaging invasive alien species on islands globally. The current toolbox for insular rodent eradications is reliant on the application of sufficient anticoagulant toxicant into every potential rodent territory across an island. Despite significant advances in the use of these toxicants over recent decades, numerous situations remain where eradication is challenging or...
