  WARNING: Mouse Poison

  Rodenticides (mouse poisons) are highly toxic to pets—if ingested, the results could be fatal. If you must use these products, do so with extreme caution and put them in places inaccessible to your pets.

  There are two common types currently available:

  Brodifacoum – an anticoagulant that has an antidote available.

  Bromethalin – a neurotoxin that has NO available antidote. 

  If you pet has gotten into a mouse poison, call immediately and have the packaging available for the doctor.  If you use mouse poisons, know what you are using and keep the package available just in case.
