Pesticide News Story: EPA Seeks Independent Scientific Review on Banning Certain Mouse and Rat Poisons

For Release: September 7, 2011

EPA is convening a meeting of the Agency’s science advisory committee this fall to obtain input on a Notice of Intent to Cancel (NOIC) certain rodenticide products that have not adopted the Agency’s new safety measures.
