Birds Meet free webinar: Rodenticides & Our Birds

Birds Meet Free webinar: Rodenticides & Our Birds: What You Need to Know

Rodenticides are designed to kill rats and mice—but the most toxic ones can also harm our native birds, pets, and other wildlife. Many people don’t realise the risk until it’s too late.

Join Dr Holly Parsons, Manager Priority Sites at BirdLife Australia, Dr Mike Lohr and Tarquin Moon, Nature Campaigner at BirdLife Australia for a practical session on how to manage rodents safely and protect the birds we all love.

In this webinar, you’ll learn:

• How rodenticides work and which products are most dangerous
• Why birds of prey, pets and other wildlife are at risk
• Safer alternatives you can use at home, school, or in your community
• How BirdLife is working to implement stronger regulations for the most harmful poisons—and how you can help
