About the event
Join us at the Capitol for “Think Outside the Bait Box: Empowering Communities to Ban Rat Poisons.”
Alongside Representative Joe Gresko, legislators, and advocates, this event will highlight the urgent need to protect pets, children, and wildlife from the dangers of rodenticides.
Learn how these poisons move through the food chain, putting entire ecosystems at risk—and discover practical, humane alternatives that keep communities safe. Attendees will also have the unique opportunity to meet a live raptor up close and see firsthand what’s at stake when wildlife is exposed to these toxins.
Together, we can build safer, healthier communities by thinking beyond poison.
