Pest controllers argue that glue traps are the only option to rapidly deal with an infestation in critical infrastructure where public safety or health is at serious risk. Rule: Change to tariff heading (CTH), provided that a) all the materials of chapter 4 used are wholly obtained and b) either: Animals trapped in poor quality traps may experience pain, fear and anxiety before becoming unconscious

The ‘Substance identity’ section is calculated from substance identification information from all ECHA databases. The substance identifiers displayed in the InfoCard are the best available substance name, EC number, CAS number and/or the molecular and structural formulas. Recognised" - meaning that the concern is indicated in an official source. Recognised concerns are illustrated with a dark red icon. Sources for these are either a Harmonised C&L (CLP Regulation Annex VI) or in the Candidate list of substances of very high concern for authorisation (REACH).Alphachloralose was once used as a sedative and general anaesthetic in human and animal medicine, but is now used as a rodenticide against mice. It has only very limited use as a rodenticide. First, alphachloralose products are not very palatable. Second, it can only be used in very limited circumstances (temperatures, locations and only for mice). It differs from other rodenticide poisons (e.g., anticoagulants and cholecalciferol), in that it acts centrally, reducing brain activity, slowing the heart, respiration and metabolism, and lowering body temperature by up to 20 0C in mice, resulting in death through hypothermia (Mason and Littin 2003). Because alphachloralose kills via hypothermia, it should only be used at temperatures below 15 0C (Meehan 1984); in warmer climates, death may be prolonged or render alphachloralose ineffective. Use at greater temperatures may result in poisoned mice recovering. Alphachloralose is not suitable or legally permitted for use in the UK against rats; this is because their larger size means that they retain body warmth better and are less likely to become hypothermic, meaning this method will be less humane for rats than for mice. In the UK, alphachloralose can only be used indoors, because of perceived risks of accidental or secondary poisoning[2]. Because it can only be used indoors, and where temperatures are less than 15 0C, it is generally not suitable for use in domestic dwellings and is likely to have only limited utility.

Alphachloralose is compatible with integrated pest management (IPM) practices. Alphachloralose is expected to fit in well with an overall IPM program that may include a combination of biological, cultural, physical and chemical tools to minimize health and environmental risks. Brodifacoum is recommended as suitable for application using the pulsed baiting strategy. However, as a result of its higher non-target toxicity it is not cleared for use out of doors and may only be used by professional pest controllers. Brodifacoum can be used in sewers.
