Chloralose

Chloralose

Chloralose is a substance often incorporated into pest control practices. As a rodenticide, Chloralose acts on the nervous system of pests like mice and rats, causing them to experience lethargy and eventually falling into a coma-like state which may result in their death. Its usage in rodent control is typically preferred due to its low level of toxicity to non-target species such as humans and pets. However, it's crucial to use it responsibly, as it can still pose risk to non-target species if not administered correctly. Primarily, Chloralose showcases a highly effective, yet safer alternative to other, more harmful rodenticides.
