Owls, kites and other birds of prey are dying from eating rats and mice that have ingested so-called Second Generation rodent poisons. These household products – including Talon brand rat and mice pellets – have been banned from general public sale in the US, Canada and EU, but remain are available from supermarkets throughout Australia.  

The use of these dangerous chemicals is being reviewed right now and you can make a submission to help get them off supermarket shelves make sure only licenced operators can access them.

Bunnings – Take bird-killing poisons off your shelves!

Bunnings controls about half of Australia’s D.I.Y hardware market share, and sells a much larger variety of second-generation anticoagulant rodenticide products (SGARs) than any other major outlet.

There are alternative products that are just as effective that don't poison our natural foodchains. 

I'm calling on Bunnings to remove a huge source of these bird-killing poisons by choosing to take these products off your shelves.
