One poison, multiple victims: stop secondary exposure to wildlife. #EnvironmentalExposure #EnvironmentalExposure #WildlifeHealth #SecondaryPoisoning #OneHealth
A bobcat eats hundreds of rats and mice a year, for free, and doesn't bill us for its service. It won't bother you, either. It's about twice the size of a housecat, wants nothing to do with people, and you'll be lucky to ever lay eyes on one. What it wants is the mice in your yard, that's it. But here's the sick part: in the mountains around Los Angeles, 88% of bobcats tested positive for rat poison. In one study, 31 of 39 dead bobcats had it in their bodies. They eat poisoned rodents, the anticoagulant tears down their immune system, mange takes hold, and they die slow. We put poison out to kill rats, and the poison kills the bobcat. If one turns up in your yard, you don't have a problem. You have the best pest control on the continent, on the house. Put the rodenticide away and let the bobcats cook.

The insect-eating bats over American farmland are worth up to $53 billion a year, and despite that, bats are still among the most misunderstood and feared wildlife in America. Bats are free pest control working the night shift over cropland, eating the moths and beetles whose larvae chew through corn, cotton, and orchards. A single colony of 150 big brown bats eats about 1.3 million insects a year. Scaled across US agriculture, one study's most likely figure landed near $22.9 billion in free pest control. Then came white-nose syndrome. The fungal disease, first found in New York in 2006, has spread to 40 states and killed millions of bats, wiping out more than 70% of bats in the colonies it reaches. What happened next is the part that will really blow you away. A 2024 study in Science by University of Chicago economist Eyal Frank compared counties where bats collapsed to counties where they didn't. In the collapse counties, farmers made up the lost pest control with chemicals: insecticide use rose 31%. And in those same counties, infant mortality rose nearly 8%, which Frank estimates at 1,334 additional infant deaths between 2006 and 2017, after controlling for other factors that could affect infant mortality. If you've got bats in a barn or under a bridge nearby, leave them. Don't seal them out in summer, when flightless pups are still inside. Skip the bug zapper and the broadcast yard spraying that hollows out their food.

A poisoned rat doesn't die fast. It goes slowly and painfully. It clumsily wanders out in the open for a day or two, which makes it the easiest meal around for the owl, the hawk, the fox, or the snake that was already hunting your rodents for free. They eat the dying rat and swallow the poison with it. Then it builds up in them. The numbers are grim. At one Massachusetts wildlife clinic, 100% of the red-tailed hawks tested carried anticoagulant rat poison in their bodies. In California, testing found it in 69% of endangered San Joaquin kit foxes. These second-generation poisons linger in tissue and pass from one animal to the next, killing by slow internal bleeding. So you poison the rats, and you poison the exact predators that keep rats in check. The yard ends up with more rodents, not fewer. Skip the bait. Seal the gaps where they get in, cut off their food, and use snap traps if you need them, indoors and away from kids and pets. Then let the hawks and foxes handle the rest.
