The perimeters of all of our local public schools are ligned by hundreds of anticoagulant rodenticide boxes which poison not only rodents but small wildlife such as birds, chipmunks, squirrels, bunnies, honeybees etc. which also eat from these boxes, and the predators that feed on these weakened animals including our domestic animals. Children who play around these boxes also may inadvertently become poisoned. If there is a rodent problem in the schools, there are several non-chemical ways of dealing with that issue. Rodenticide boxes do not belong in such high quantities in our community, especially not around schools where there are wildlife areas such as fields and woods.
