Why You Should Never Use Glue Traps

A glue trap is a small, flat board made of cardboard or plastic that is coated with an extremely sticky adhesive.  The glue trap doesn’t instantly kill the animal — the glue is not toxic. Instead, the animal stays stuck, dying over the course of several days from starvation, dehydration and suffocation.

Take Action Against Rat Poisons Rodenticides

Since 2006, WildCare has been working to combat the use of rat poisons (rodenticides) to control rodents. Why are we against rat poisons? Because rat poisons don’t just kill rodents. They also kill the animals that eat rats and mice, like hawks, owls, foxes, raccoons and skunks.
