A great big Thank You to all those who received and acted upon our latest Action Alert. AB 1788 passed the California Senate and House last night. This bill places a moratorium on the use of second-generation anticoagulant rodenticides. These poisonous toxins kill not only the rats they are intended for but also kill the hawks, owls, foxes, mountain lions and all those that feed upon the poisoned rodents.
