Dear Legislators, Thank you for your time and effort on behalf of the people of New Hampshire. I also hope you will vote in favor of HB 1676 to protect wildlife in our state. Studies across the country have shown that these rodenticides do not remain in people's basements. As rodents are poisoned, they move away to die, and that means outside. Their bodies hold the poison and are then passed to whatever other animals choose to eat them. But it doesn't end there: The poison has a long life from rodent to weasel to fisher or coyote or owl or hawk or eagle. All of these animals die because we allow these rodenticides to be used, and obviously, so obviously, we don't want to kill all of these animals. Please VOTE TO SUPPORT. Thank you.
