Resistance to the First and Second Generation Anticoagulant Rodenticides-a New Perspective
Warfarin resistance was first discovered among Norway rat (Rattus norvegicus) populations in Scotland in 1958 and further reports of resistance, both in this species and in others, soon followed from other parts of Europe and the United States. Researchers quickly defined the practical impact of these resistance phenomena and developed robust methods by which to monitor their spread. These task...
متن کاملLaboratory and Field Investigations with Difenacoum, a Promising New Rodenticide
Difenacoum is a new rodenticide recently introduced on the British market; it is one of the most potent of a series of hydroxycoumarin-based anticoagulants. Difenacoum is effective against laboratory rats and mice resistant to conventional anticoagulants and has a marked selectivity in favour of non-target species. Vitamin K1 is an effective antidote and the hazard of secondary poisoning is min...
متن کاملField trials of a new sub-acute rodenticide flupropadine, against wild Norway rats (Rattus norvegicus).
Fifteen experimental treatments with rodenticidal baits containing 0.1, 0.15 or 0.2% flupropadine were conducted on farmsteads against Rattus norvegicus infestations. Eight treatments were completely successful and the others gave kills ranging from 36 to 72% in 28 days. Treatments with 0.1 and 0.15% flupropadine were less successful against large infestations than against small ones. Flupropad...
متن کاملRODENTICIDAL ACTIVITY OF BROMADIOLONEâ•flA NEW ANTICOAGULANT
Bromadiolone, a new anticoagulant rodenticide, has been evaluated against laboratory rats and mice. Kill of both species was excellent, even when bromadiolone was offered for only one day in the presence of alternative food. Effectiveness against homozygous warfarin resistant rats was also demonstrated. Limited field trials on farms showed that after baiting for seven days with bromadiolone, wa...
متن کاملControl Of Rats Resistant To Second-Generation Anticoagulant Rodenticides
Second-generation anticoagulant rodenticides were introduced to control Norway rats that had become resistant to first-generation compounds. Unfortunately, some rats have become resistant to these as well. The lack of alternative rodenticides with the same attributes of ease of use and relative safety is potentially a serious problem should resistance become so widespread that anticoagulants ar...
