Rodenticide poison is cruel, indiscriminate, ineffective & has devastating ramifications for the environment. The UK is in the lowest 10% globally in terms of biodiversity & having such toxic substances on sale contributes to the harm being done to the natural world & delicate ecosystems. Having this poison readily available leads to the dangerous misconception that it's inherently safe. There are often multiple victims, with many companion animals & endangered species being among those killed.
