Label Changes Could Appear For Bromadiolone And Difenacoum Products From As Early As May 2024, Manufacturers Warn!
This is an important reminder to pest control operators, to check rodenticide labels for changes that could appear on labels as early as May.
As always, “read the label.”
The change was instigated voluntarily by the Campaign for Responsible Rodenticide Use UK, with support to make the necessary amendments from UK biocides regulator, the Health and Safety Executive (HSE). The main aim being to reduce SGAR residues in wildlife.
Sales of products containing bromadiolone and difenacoum for use in open areas and at waste dumps will cease on 4 July 2024. Existing products, already purchased, on or before that date, with the appropriate labels, will be authorised for use in open areas and waste dumps until 31 December 2024. After that, it will be illegal to use any SGAR product to treat a rodent infestation not associated with a building.
