New rat control survey - have your say

RatRat poison must be used carefully. The GWCT has been helping those working in the countryside understand the risks rodenticides pose, to other wildlife, for over twenty years.  

New gamekeeper survey

A new survey to evaluate how rodenticides are used is taking place. Although not organised by the GWCT we are offering our members, particularly gamekeepers, the opportunity to take part. Your views will contribute to the continuing use of rodenticides in the countryside.

Would you like to take part?

Information provided will remain confidential and responses will be averaged. This snap-shot survey will provide a useful picture of how rat baits are being used. Respondents will also enter a £200 prize draw.

Rat Control Survey

I'm a farmer & rat numbers have soared during winter 2016. We've had guns in at night and they've shot hundreds but the problem persists. I have Barn Owls so I'm reluctant to use poison.
