Coumatetralyl is commonly used with grains and other cereals as a rodent poison in conjunction with a tracking powder to monitor feeding activity in a particular area. Tracking powder also clings to fur, which allows more poison to be ingested from grooming.
These methods of alternating rodenticides with different modes of action gives actual or almost 100% eradications of the rodent population in the area, if the acceptance/palatability of baits are good (i.e., rodents feed on it readily). Zinc phosphide is typically added to rodent baits in a concentration of 0.75% to 2.0%.
Difethialone is an anticoagulant used as a rodenticide. [1] It is considered a second generation agent. [2] In May 2008, the EPA added restrictions on the sale of difethialone in consumer-use rodenticide products and also for exterior use by commercial applicators. [3] [4]

Warning label on a tube of rat poison containing bromadiolone on a dike of the Scheldt river in Steendorp, Belgium.

Commonly used avicides include strychnine (also used as rodenticide and predacide), DRC-1339 (3-chloro-4-methylaniline hydrochloride, Starlicide) and CPTH (3-chloro-p-toluidine, the free base of Starlicide), Avitrol (4-aminopyridine) and chloralose (also used as rodenticide).
It is a second generation (i.e., high potency) chemical in this class, used commercially as a rodenticide. It has a very high toxicity and is restricted to indoor use and sewers (in the UK). This restriction is mainly due to the increased risk to non-target species, especially due to its tendency to bio-accumulate in exposed organisms.
