| Abstract: | Flocoumafen had good rodenticidal action against Apodemus agrarius and Rattus losea. The acute oral LD50 for male A. agrarius and R. losea was 1·22 mg kg?1 and 1·36 mg kg?1 respectively. Flocoumafen bait was more toxic to R. losea than to A. agrarius. At bait concentrations of 0·002–0·005%, flocoumafen had a single-feed potency with mortalities of 90–100% for R. losea and 77·8–100% for A. agrarius. Experimental baits prepared using the manufacturing 0·5% master mix of flocoumafen were palatable to both species. |
