Rodenticide Poisoning

The use of rodenticides is extremely widespread globally. At the first glance, they seem like the perfect solution to get rid of the rats and mice that makes life a living hell for many people. Their rampant availability and the marketing strategy labelling them essentially safe for use around households make their presence all the scarier.

In the recent past, a lot of incidences have come to light showing the harmful nature of these rodenticides. Not only are they toxic and harmful to the environment, but also to your pets and children. Anybody who comes in contact with the substance are bound to be affected by it because of its high toxicity levels. Most of the rodenticides are super toxic as they contain substances called anticoagulants. These anticoagulants, once ingested, enters the system and stops the production of the vitamin that is essential for normal blood clotting. This leads to constant bleeding and the consumer dies out because of it.

While it is marketed as a rodenticide that is meant for rats, mice and other pesky rodents, the chemical has the same effect on all organisms that consume it. Birds, pets and children have been reported to have accidently consume the rodenticide causing immense pain and also death in cases of many birds.

Another very prevalent disadvantage of these super toxic rodenticides include their long-half lives. This means that they are present in the environment for a very long time. Rodents that consume the rodenticide, even after dying, harbours the toxic chemicals inside their carcasses. This puts all other animals that feed on them at high risk.

A lot of cases have been seen of how rodenticides can cause excessive harm in the environment. Some of them are given below:

Understanding the Risks of Rodent Poisons to Birds of Prey

16 September, 2020

“A new study finds 100% of tested red-tailed hawks at Tufts Wildlife Clinic to be exposed to anticoagulant rodenticides.

Maureen Murray, V03, director of Tufts Wildlife Clinic and clinical associate professor at Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine, has been studying rodenticide exposure in birds of prey for over a decade. Exposure to rodenticides occurs when people use these chemicals to kill unwanted pests. Mice and rats, or possibly other animals, eat the poison, and then the birds eat the poisoned prey.

Murray has witnessed a steady increase in the number of birds of prey that come into Tufts Wildlife Clinic with rodenticides in their systems—some with fatal levels. But even Murray was taken aback by the results of her most recent study.

“One hundred percent of the red-tailed hawks in the present study tested positive for exposure to anticoagulant rodenticides,” said Murray. “In my 2017 paper, 97 percent of the hawks tested were positive, which is very high. But still, 100 feels like a much more dramatic number.”

The study, published in Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, also found that 91 percent of the birds tested positive for two or more different types of anticoagulant rodenticide (AR), with the second-generation ARs (SGARs) brodifacoum, bromadiolone, and difethialone found most frequently. SGARs are more potent than their first-generation predecessors, to which some rats—particularly in Europe—developed an immunity.”

RSPCA rat poison warning after fox was found shaking and had to be put down

14 October, 2020

“The RSPCA is warning people about the dangers of using rat poison after a fox was found collapsed in a garden in Manchester after ingesting it – she later died.

The fox was discovered collapsed and shaking in School Grove, Withington, by a resident who alerted the RSPCA on October 9.

The vixen was rushed to a nearby vets for treatment but sadly had to be put down as she was suffering so much, the RSPCA said.

It is suspected the fox may have ingested rat poison – possibly from eating a rodent which had been poisoned.

Miss Pierce said: “The symptoms indicate the fox probably died from poison which was left out for rats but obviously can be ingested by other wild animals as well as dogs and cats and often causes a slow and painful death.

“It is such a shame as she was beautiful and in such great condition.

“People use rat poison but forget about the dangers it poses to other animals such as owls which feed on rats – and we often get reports from dog owners about their pets getting severely ill or dying after ingesting such poison.

“Signs of poisoning, such as vomiting and dizziness can be seen anything from 30 minutes after an animal has ingested the chemical, though it can be two or three days before signs of kidney failure are seen.”

CA tightens rules on rat poisons that kill mountain lions, birds, endangered wildlife

1 October, 2020

SACRAMENTO, Calif. – “Gov. Gavin Newsom on Tuesday signed a bill widely restricting the use of certain highly potent rat poisons that are blamed for killing mountain lions, birds and endangered wildlife.

Assembly Bill 1788 bars the general use of so-called second-generation anticoagulant rodenticides, or SGARs, until the director of the state Department of Pesticide Regulation certifies that the chemicals have been reevaluated and any additional restrictions needed to limit the impact on wildlife are adopted.

The deaths can be slow, and the chemicals linger in the bodies of the rodents and can be passed on up the food chain to predators and scavengers from the dead or dying rodents.

They include mountain lions, bobcats, badgers, golden eagles, great-horned owls, black bears, Pacific fishers, coyotes and endangered San Joaquin kit foxes, according to state regulators.

Last month, wildlife officials announced that an adult bobcat and a young mountain lion that were part of a study of big cats in the wilderness west of Los Angeles both died after ingesting rat poisons.

Consumer sales of SGARs were banned in 2014 and their use restricted to licensed exterminators. However, the chemicals are still widely used commercially and in agriculture.

Supporters of the bill said stronger measures were needed because the 2014 restrictions haven’t reduced the impact on wildlife that play important roles as natural rodent predators.”

Moreover, recent reports have shown that because of over-exposure to the poisons many rat species have developed resistant towards them, thus defying the entire concept of using them. These rats, named as super-rats, are bigger in size and have shown immunity towards many types of rodenticides.

It is clear that something has to be done to stop the rodents and toxic rodenticides and pesticides are not the option.

We, at C Tech Corporation, have a unique, effective, and efficient way to tackle these pesticides and replace them with the pest repellent products that we manufacture.

The product Rodrepel^TM manufactured by C Tech Corporation is an anti-rodent and animal aversive. It works on the mechanism of repellence and is an extremely low concern, low toxic, low hazard, non-carcinogenic and non-mutagenic pest aversive. It does not kill or cause harm to the pests or to the environment, thus, indirectly helping to maintain the ecological balance.

Rodrepel^TM is available in the form of masterbatch, which can be incorporated into the polymeric applications like pipes, agriculture mulch films, floating row covers, greenhouse films etc. used for crop cultivation purpose etc.

The product available in the form of liquid concentrate can be mixed in paints in a predetermined ratio and be applied to the fences in the garden and farms to keep the pests away from these places.

Our product in the lacquer form can be applied topically on the applications. The lacquer is compatible with most of the surfaces like wood, concrete, metal, polymer, ceramic, etc. The lacquer can be applied on the already installed pipes in the fields or garden, fences around farms and garden, walls of the warehouses where the agricultural products are stored, thus protecting it from damage.

Our newly developed product in the form of a spray can be sprayed anywhere to repel the pests. The product is compatible with all types of surfaces and can be used by anyone. The Rodrepel^TM rodent repellent spray is completely safe to use.

Rodrepel^TM does not kill or harm the rodents but repels them. It does not volatilize and does not degrade the soil. It is RoHS, RoHS2, RoHS3, EU – BPR, ISO, REACH, APVMA, NEA compliant and FIFRA exempted.

The story of rats and cars!

Family cars and automobiles have a very special place in the hearts of the members of the family. More often than not, they will have discussed at length, thought about it and saved up for years before buying that vehicle. So much thought and efforts go into planning the finances and situations around the event of the purchase. After all that hassle, to know that the precious vehicle is being attacked would be no less than horrifying!

To find the culprit and stop the attack would be the most prioritized task. What if the attackers turn out to be relentless? What if there seems no plausible way to stop the culprits? What if days after days they attack the vehicle and damage it? The situation would turn so hopeless and bleak. One would stop to think who these assailants are. They are none other than the pesky rodents that we see everywhere. Rats can be found on the busy sidewalk of roads and bigger rodents like raccoons can be found around your backyard and in bushy areas. Moles and gophers like to ruin your gardens and lawns. These rodents are present everywhere. They chew on everything available making life miserable for everyone around.

The rodents chew the wires and cables, fuel reservoirs, ducts, cable carriers, seats, etc. from the cars causing a nuisance. Replacement of these vital parts from the cars is expensive.

Your cars and vehicles prove to be nice feasts for them because of the ample amounts of polymeric materials present in them that they are attracted to. Yes, this is the truth of what is happening around the world. Parked cars not only tempt them with the availability of abundant food but also the comfort of warm resting space. It is relatively easy for them to make their way inside the vehicle. The electrical wirings and systems directly lead them to the bonnet of the car, where they can build nests and damage the wirings. The damage they cause can sometimes be very difficult to locate, resulting in large repair bills!

Recent news article clippings that have reported such incidences are presented below:

Raccoon breaks into Spokane family’s car while the family was out of town

Apr 22, 2021

“I found raccoon prints all on the inside of the car and the outside of the car and some big teeth marks on the front seat,” Liz Cole said.

While away, a local Raccoon had broken into their car and rummaged around, causing damage to the inside and outside of the vehicle.

Raccoons are known for getting into trash cans, crawling into chimneys and making homes in attics and crawl spaces. One Raccoon, named Rebecca, even lived at the White House during the Coolidge presidency. But wild raccoons, though seemingly cute, are dangerous and can be a carrier of rabies.

“We got a little bit used to being in the city where there is not as much activity with animals so we have realized we have to be a little more careful,” Cole said.

Hungry rats costing Brisbane car owners thousands in repairs

April 24, 2021

Brisbane’s cooler months have prompted warnings that rats may be looking for a cosy place to wine and dine — such as your car engine.

One Holland Park resident, Tanya Wright, was recently hit with a costly bill after her car wouldn’t start.

Her mechanic discovered the engine’s wiring had been almost entirely stripped by hungry rats.

“All the coating off the wiring had been gnawed off — a couple of thousand dollars’ worth of damage,” Ms Wright told

“They go in there looking for warmth from the motor and they discover things they like to chew.”

Ms. Wright said she contacted Brisbane City Council, which sent forth rat dogs to sniff out the problem.

But her car remains at the mechanic’s and her insurance policy does not cover rat damage.

Ms. Wright urged people to double-check their insurance policy to avoid a steep bill.

“We had rats in our car, they ate through all the wiring, our kids’ car seats and even chewed the seatbelts,” she said.

One listener urged that caution when using rat baits around children and pets, while another warned about confusing rats with native mammals such as antechinus.

We, at C Tech Corporation, can provide with an extremely low toxic, low hazard, effective and efficient solution. RodrepelTM is an anti-rodent, anti-animal polymer additive. It is specially designed for polymeric applications. The masterbatch can be incorporated in insulation, wires, door cladding, carpet, plastic accessories, seat cushions, car covers, polymeric switch panels, components of ignition box, fuel tanks, fuel hoses, foam seats, etc. RodrepelTM lacquer can be coated on already installed wires, polymeric hoses, fuel tanks, battery box, ducts, door cladding, etc.

Our newly developed product in the form of a spray is a must-have product for every car owner! Rodrepel™ Rodent Repellent Spray is specially designed for cars. The product can be sprayed on the car components after clearing the dust and waste from the components. The product when applied properly repels the rodents and protects the cars from rodent damage.

RodrepelTM works on the mechanism of repellence. It does not kill target species but only repels them.

Our product is FIFRA exempted and is also REACH, RoHS, RoHS2, APVMA, NEA and EU-BPR complaint.

RodrepelTM will be the best solution to keep rodents away from your cars.

The 2021 Australian Mice Plague

Mice plagues have occurred in Australia many times in the past ever since mice were first introduced in the continent by European merchants and travellers.

The ample amount of farms and farmlands there make it very attractive for the mice to find food and shelter there. The recent rains and a bumper harvest have led to a full-blown plague in the rural parts of New South Wales and Queensland which is making daily life miserable for the citizens. Many reports have quoted this to be the worst mice infestation in decades in Australia.

These mice live in the farms during the day and come out at night in thousands to completely lay the lands to waste. They eat everything that is available and many farmers have reported the loss of their harvest because of these mice.

Grocery store owners, farmers, hotel managers and members of the community are facing the adversity of this plague that has gotten way out of hand. The rural parts of northern, western and southern Australia are being completely ravished by these mice that come in great numbers.

Supermarkets and restaurants that have food stocked are experiencing a hard time as well. Pesky little mice have managed to get into every cupboard and larder. Grains, fruits and even the containers that food comes packaged in are all destroyed by the mice. Cars and other vehicles are at the mercy of these rodents too. They cling inside through the bonnets and chew on all the wirings and other parts made up of polymeric materials.

Homes and barns, hospitals and other public places are also facing adverse situations dealing with these mice. The mice reproduce way too fast and any method to curb them has proven to be unsuccessful so far. All the baits and traps have been rendered useless because of the rapid rise in their numbers.

The exponential rise in mice numbers has led to many mouse-related diseases occurring. They carry many germs with them that they spread everywhere they visit and cause diseases. Mice urine and droppings contain bacteria and other pathogens that can cause various ailments in us humans.

Many accounts of the ongoing plague has been reported and written. Some of them are given below:

“An ‘absolute plague’ of mice is ravaging eastern Australia”

“Mice in the cabinets. Mice in the streets. Thousands upon thousands of mice in the barn, pooing so much it takes six hours to clean up their waste.

These are scenes from Queensland and New South Wales, Australia, where an out-of-control mouse infestation is making life miserable for farmers, grocers and other citizens of the eastern Australian states.

Some farmers have already lost entire grain harvests to the rampaging mice, according to local media reports, while hotels have had to close because they can’t keep the critters out of the rooms. Staff at a grocery store in a small town northwest of Sydney reported catching as many as 600 mice a night. So far, at least three people have visited the hospital with rodent bites, The Guardian reported.

Steve Henry, a researcher at CSIRO (Australia’s national science agency) told The Guardian that the infestation is likely the result of an unusually large grain harvest, which drew more hungry mice to the area’s farms earlier in the season than usual.

“They start breeding earlier and because there’s lots of food and shelter in the system, they continue to breed from early spring right through into the autumn,” Henry said.

Despite these efforts, Alan Brown, a farmer from the New South Wales city of Wagga Wagga, said that the plague was likely just beginning, considering the rapid pace of breeding in mice; a single breeding pair can produce a new litter every 20 days or so, birthing more than 500 offspring in a season, according to Reuters.

“A mature female can breed every three weeks, they can pump them out,” Brown said. “And that’s what is going on … it is building up to a massive plague.”

In addition to being a nuisance and business threat, mouse plagues can also be vectors of disease, according to the Queensland Government’s 1998 report on mice in Queensland.”

“Australian Town Hit By Worst Mice Plague ‘in Decades’; Rodents Bite People, Invade Homes”

“Rodents ran haywire in farms in Gilgandra, northwest of Sydney, Australia, destroying harvest, entering hospitals biting patients and electrical wires.

In a statement to Australian Broadcasting Company (ABC), a farmer by the name of Ron Mckay said that at night thousands and thousands of mice covered the floor, moving around rapidly. Local reports cited at least 3 mice-related injuries among the patients at healthcare centers in Tottenham, Walgett and Gulargambone. Mice were found sailing inside water tanks, trapped in sealed food containers, pantries and wardrobes of homes, fouling the previously clean spaces with faeces and stinky smells as the mice plague, worst in decades, spread in NSW.

A farmer in Wagga Wagga and a member of the NSW Farmers Association told The Guardian that mice infestation has incurred him $300,000 (£168,000) loss as the rodents destroyed crops. The only way out is hoping that heavy downpours drown the rodents in their bills, locals told reporters. The mice swarm destroyed acres of hay bales, and not sparing the grocer’s communities, the rodents invaded shops in Coonamble, north-west of Sydney.

A local grocer in Gulargambone told Sky News that the staff was catching nearly 500 mice or sometimes 600 at night. “It’s pretty gross,” he said. He added that the shops stink and many mice die inside the supermarkets the locals relied on for foodstuff. People are “freaked out” and are going elsewhere for groceries, he said. The NSW government’s Department of Primary Industries found that the on-farm rodent control programs that rely on rodenticides alone to control and manage rodent problems aren’t effective or sustainable.”

C Tech Corporation’s 100% eco-friendly product Rodrepel™ can prove to be a real game-changer in the situation. It works on the principle of repellence and does not kill the rodent.

Rodrepel™ triggers a fear response in rodents. It causes severe temporary distress to the mucous membrane of the rodents due to which the pest stays away from the application. The product triggers an unpleasant reaction in case the pest tries to gnaw away at the application. After encountering the above-mentioned emotions, the animal instinctively perceives it as something it should stay away from and stores this information for future reference. The fact that certain rodents are repelled is mimicked by other rodents as well. Thus, the other rodents too stay away from the applications. The unpleasant experience is imprinted within the animal’s memory and passed on to its progeny.

It will cause the rats to develop an aversion to all applications treated with the product. This will lead to the rodents naturally staying away from it. And because of conditioning and association, the progeny will also stay from them, thus giving a long term solution to the problem at hand. If the proper application is carried out, the rodents will find themselves with no readily available food. If this continues for a considerable time, the rats will start to move in search of food, thus vacating the area.

The products are available in the form of a solid masterbatch, liquid concentrate, lacquer, wood polish additive and spray.

The masterbatch can be incorporated into a range of polymeric and coating applications including films, wires and cables, pipes, etc. thereby making the end application rodent resistant. If silage films that are used for wrapping bales, hay and other farm harvest is incorporated with the masterbatch, then all these applications and other farm produce can be protected from rat attacks.

The liquid concentrate can be diluted with paints and other organic solvents and can be applied on walls of the infested area, like the interior and exterior of the houses, barns, grocery store buildings, hospitals, offices, etc. The liquid concentrate can also be diluted with water and used as a spray to spray around the infested area.

The already installed cables, pipes, and other applications can be coated with the lacquer to protect them from the rodents gnawing on this application and thus preventing the damage. The lacquer is a transparent product and it does not wear off easily.

The wood polish additive can be blended with wood polish and applied on the wooden articles and furniture used in hospitals and around houses. The fences around farms and farmlands can also be coated with wood polish mixed with the anti-rodent additive, making them more effective barriers and helping to stop the influx of more rats into the farms.

Our newly developed product is in the form of a spray and is an easy-to-use product. It can be sprayed around the pest entry point areas to repel the rodents and prevent them from entering the premises.

Rodrepel™ is cost-effective, eco-friendly and safe for everybody including us humans and the environment as a whole. It is RoHS, RoHS2, RoHS3, REACH, NEA, EU BPR, APVMA compliant and FIFRA exempted.

Uninvited Passengers under Hood!

Your car is your beloved companion. It adds little joy to your life by taking you from place to place. But did you know your car could be haunted by those pesky yellow-bellied rodents?

These creatures might snuggle under your car’s hood!

During the winter and spring months, when it’s cold outside they hibernate. They can freeze or starve if they don’t store enough fat so, a car is the perfect nesting place for them. Car engines are normally warm, dry, and undisturbed, making them a perfect place to eat, rest, or breed. And once they get inside, they will cause serious damage to the vehicle, the damage that may end up causing holes in your pocket. So you surely don’t want these creepy critters.

Marmots are large ground herbivorous squirrels, which includes 15 species and found in Asia, Europe, and North America. They are large rodents with short legs and enlarged claws adapted for digging. Despite being known to cause damage to gardens and crops they can be a serious threat to cars!

Your car would be eaten by marmots. Not the whole vehicle, just your radiator hoses, brake lines, and hood insulation. They prefer radiator hoses to search for an alternative for ethylene glycol which is found in anti-freeze liquid. Antifreeze has a naturally sweet taste and fragrance that pull marmot’s attention in.

The tasty rubber and plastic bits of your engine are attracting attention among marmots, but most marmot species have a voracious hunger for the most delicate car parts.

Here is the evidence of the same.

Marmot Rescued from the engine compartment of a car

Springville | March 26, 2020

When a Utah woman noticed something wrong with her car last week, she took it into a maintenance shop to see what the problem was. It turned out a large rodent was stowed away inside the engine compartment of her vehicle.

The woman brought her car to a Jiffy Lube in Springville on Saturday after noticing debris and some oil on the ground near her car. Mechanics opened up the hood and said there appeared to be a marmot stuck inside, according to Utah Division of Wildlife Resources conservation officer Sean Spencer.

After making some calls, Spencer was dispatched to help. The rescue was caught on camera and it shows the creature peering from underneath the vehicle’s engine hoses.

Along with this, a marmot pup causes the damage of more than $1,000 by climbing around in someone’s car in Crested Butte. Also, according to Harold Werner, Biologist, U.S. Fish, and Wildlife Service,

“Some 200 marmots do this every year, damaging 20 to 40 cars in Mineral King Valley”

These critters wreak havoc every year in the Mineral King area in California. It seems like marmots wait for cars to show up near that area!

These creepy critters may look cute but they can also carry diseases like plague and fleas can come in contact with humans and pets which are spread by marmots. Their droppings carry parasites and bacteria which may cause diarrhea and nausea.

Though marmots are the most well-known engine wreakers, they also transform grassland landscapes, providing habitats for many other species. They have often been considered ecosystem’s engineers!

So, it is important to keep marmots away from our vehicles but also keep in mind that they are not harmed or destroyed by us.

Not only marmots but other rodents like rats and squirrels are especially fond of gnawing on engine wires. Short circuits can occur if rodents chew away at the insulation covering the wires, resulting in costly engine damage. And the insulation on your new wires can simply be chewed away when you fix the wires!

Your car engine could be a desirable nest for rodents. They can use the engine’s insulating fabrics nesting material. There are several dark corners in the engine that could serve as safe havens for baby rodents.

Below is the news reported a few weeks ago.

‘Dublin couple may have to fork out thousands after rats chew through car’

A Dublin couple fears they will have to fork out thousands to repair their car after it was destroyed by rats at a city center flat complex.

The couple’s 2017 car had only just passed its NCT when it was destroyed by the rodents, who chewed through the electronics, sending the motor haywire at the Vincent Street Flats in Dublin.

The woman told Dublin Live: “We were out in the car on weekend and everything was grand.

“We didn’t go out on weekend but when we went out, my husband turned on the engine, and all the engine management lights all started flashing and beeping and saying the tyres were down and other things were wrong.

“He got out and checked the tyres and they were all fine but then when he was parking he realized the parking sensor wasn’t working either.”

The worried couple took the car to their mechanic who immediately spotted that the damage had been done by rats that have been plaguing the area for several years.

The couple is now waiting anxiously to find out how much it is going to cost to carry out the extensive repairs.

So, what can be the effective steps taken to keep them away from the cars without destroying them?

Now, the world is becoming environment conscious day by day so we at C Tech Corporation developed environment-friendly, non-hazardous, non-toxic, non-mutagenic, and non-carcinogenic product range to fight the problem without killing the pests.

Our product, Rodrepel™, is anti-rodent and animal aversive that works on the principle of repellence. Its mechanism works on 6 prolonged strategies which not only effective against marmots but will keep away other rodents like squirrels, rats, beavers, and gophers.

Rodrepel™ is available in the form of a masterbatch, liquid concentrate, lacquer, and sprays.

The masterbatch can be incorporated with the polymer to manufacture cable sheathing and interior polymeric parts.

The liquid concentrate can be mixed with paints and used to coat cars and lacquer can be used as a topical application for existing wires, radiator hoses, and inside of the car.

The ready-to-use Rodrepel™ spray is easy to use and protects cars from rodent damage. It can be easily sprayed on any car parts.

The product is compliant with RoHS, RoHS2, RoHS3, REACH, APVMA, NEA, EU-BPR, and FIFRA exempted.

Destructive Beavers

“The eagle may soar; beavers build dams!”
Bill Vaughan

Beavers are referred to as “Engineers of Nature.” Unlike other animal beavers also play important role in preserving ecosystem by building dams to control flooding in monsoon and also as storing water for summer. Beavers are truly incredible creatures!

They are the second largest rodents found in Northern Hemisphere such as in North America, Europe and Asia where they are close to humans. Beavers have large head and paddle shaped broad tail. In a variety of aquatic habitats, such as rivers, streams, lakes and wetlands, these creatures can be found. They are active in their ponds throughout the winter season also. As they are herbivores, they prefer to eat leaves, tree barks, roots and aquatic plants. Sometimes they even found eating some cultivated crops such as potatoes, mushroom, berries and soybean. Even if river banks or lakes are buried by them, they still create a living hood on it by building the dams. Even by using their sharp teeth and powerful jaws they gnaw tress and create logs. Even though they are marvel in engineering but indeed they are frustration of farmers and locals. Let’s look onto some evidences.

Farmer troubles with beaver dam

Franklin County, IL | January 09, 2019

Farmers near wetlands say beaver dams have been a problem forever. In fact, a man died recently in Washington County, Missouri while trying to clear a beaver dam by hand, according to the county sheriff. Those situations all come from the way beaver dams affect waterways. Delehunt said when they build dams; it slows the water flow, allowing water to rise. This builds up pressure and can completely wash away pathways and flood roads.

For the farmer, Hood said these problems are detrimental to crop yield. The overflowing water ways can flood fields making it impossible to take heavy farm equipment on them, break levees and do the same things, or blow out levees on rivers and fill fields with large debris. On top of that, Hood said beavers will also steal grains like corn and soybeans to store for food.

Beavers cause flooding around Guskie Pond

Monroe | July 26, 2020

Animal Control Officer Ed Risko carried a chainsaw, while wading into the water of Guskie Pond Thursday morning. A large pipe, which had allowed water to flow through a dam of sticks and mud, had been moved away by beavers, causing flooding in the surrounding neighborhood. Risko dug away debris and cut a log atop the pipe, freeing it, so it could be moved back into place.

This was the secondary dam. Beyond it, the pond widened. Further from the spot, a little ways passed an area of lily pads, larger piles of sticks cutting across the pond formed the main dam. Beavers moved into Monroe in 1992, building their first dam at Hattertown and Judd roads, according to Risko. Since then, Risko has been placing vent pipes, which are called water level control devices, in beaver dams throughout town to alleviate property damage from flooding.

“The only way the state allows us to control beavers is to control the water level,” he explained. Risko has been called back to Guskie Pond, located along Huntingtown Road, several times over the years. Beavers first moved there in 1994. Aside from causing tree and flood damage for area residents, beavers caused a section of Huntingtown Road to collapse, a little over a decade ago, when they built a lodge beneath the street.

In 2011, Masuk student Matthew Morabito, a Boy Scout with Troop 163, worked with Risko to come up with a design to get water flowing through the main dam for his Eagle Scout Project. It involved the installation of five pipes. It solved flooding problems for a while, but it has become a problem once again. One of locals said, “This has caused a serious problem to our property. We have lost quite a bit of our land that has become flooded and under water also drawing more mosquitoes. The water has come so far up our property that out electric fence is now under water.”

Busy beaver causes outage for more than 10,000 in Aroostook County

Caribou | December 21, 2020

A “very ambitious beaver” chewed down a tree between Fort Kent and Frenchville on Dec. 21, resulting in a power outage that left more than 10,000 in Aroostook County without power, according to Versant spokesperson Judy Long.

By 3:55 p.m., roughly half an hour after the outage first occurred, 2,389 customers in Fort Kent were without power, representing more than 98 percent of the town’s customers. Additionally the outage affected 1,943 in Madawaska, 785 in Caribou, 746 in Eagle Lake and 620 in Frenchville.

Versant spokesperson Judy Long said they were able to isolate the area where the fault originated and get all customers back online within a couple hours. The next morning, crews conducted a patrol of the area and found that the outage was caused by a tree that had fallen on a transmission line between Frenchville and Fort Kent. And In the process of removing the tree and getting things repaired, workers discovered the beaver’s marks on the tree, and determined that the large rodent was responsible for the downed line.

Basically beavers reside near residential area as long the conditions are favorable for them. So to avoid any flooding or other damages like power outage, damaging crops or trees and to balance ecosystem, it is essential to keep them away rather than culling them!

We at C Tech Corporation offer a solution to overcome this problem.

An Effective Way To Manage The Gnawing Rats!

“Only run-down areas attract rats!“

The most common myth about rats is they can only be found in slum areas, but the truth is rats can appear anywhere. As long as they find food and shelter, they can make themselves at home in any area. Just like that there are many other myths and rumors about rats in terms of their behavior, way of communication and solutions for damage caused by them. For a proper rodent control it is essential to know the difference between the facts and myths. Here are some facts about rodents and an ecofriendly preventive measure for the damage caused by them!

Like other mammals rats also form a family group. They nourish each other, chase each other and sleep together and try to defend their group from stranger rats. As rats are capable to adapt themselves in human environment, usually they are found in cities and rural areas. Rats have poor vision but excellent hearing so they communicate by producing ultrasound which is not audible by humans. Sometimes they create some noise to express their pain or distress which is audible to humans and even scrapping teeth is another way of showing distress in rats. The pheromones play a special role in social behavior of rats. Basically it triggers a warning sign within the rats if there is any danger or gives a signal to interact with opposite sex. Let’s have a look on experimental study on how rats communicate!

Mind-reading rodents: Scientists show ‘telepathic’ rats can communicate using brain-to-brain

February 28, 2013 | Independent TV

Scientists have shown that it is possible to transmit instructions from one animal to another by a telepathic-like process of brain-to-brain communication. They believe it is the start of what they are calling “organic” computing based on networks of interconnected brains. Pairs of laboratory rats have communicated with each other using microscopic electrodes implanted into their brains. One rat was able to pass on instructions to the other rat in a separate cage using a system of electronic encoding. “As far as we can tell, these findings demonstrate for the first time that a direct channel for behavioral information exchange can be established between two animal’s brains without the use of the animal’s regular forms of communication,” they say.

One rat in each pair, the “encoder”, detected the physical signals of where to find a food reward and pass on these instructions to the second “decoder” rat, which was able to use the encoded signals of the first rat to find a similar reward in its own cage without any further help. The scientists also showed that the direct brain-to-brain communication, carried by fine wires connecting one rat to the other, can be extended over the internet, with rats in Brazil communicating with rats in North Carolina, some 7,500km away. These experiments showed that we have established a sophisticated direct communication linkage between brains.

Earlier this month, Professor Nicolelis revealed that he had given laboratory rats a “sixth sense” by connecting up their nervous systems to a sensor that can detect infrared light, which is normally invisible to rats as well as humans. Professor Nicolelis inserted micro-electrode implants into the rats’ brains to record the nerve activity associated with making a decision. He then put these signals through a computer encoder which transmitted them via wires to the second rat, which quickly learned how to decode them for its own use. Each rat was trained to find water in its cage based on the type of signals they were given. However, during the experiment only the encoder rat was exposed to these signals and it had to pass on the right instructions to the second, decoder rat which managed to find the reward in about 70 per cent of cases. So basically when two rats are paired up they establish a quick sensory feedback. If one fails to find the reward, the other one modify its brain to find that reward.

This experiment can be very useful to control the aggressive behavior of rats especially when they are trying to damage various things. Rodents can actually cause property damage and transmit various diseases thus, it is essential to control them with proper strategies.

We all know “Prevention is better than cure!” So, Using the traps or poisonous food won’t keep the rats away as their population grows continuously by a factor of 10 in just 15 weeks. Their teeth grow continuously which make the discomfort in them as a result, they keep gnawing the things.

In order to maintain the ecosystem C Tech Corporation found an alternative to prevent rodent damage.

The product is called Rodrepel^TM, the name itself suggests repelling the rodents. It is an extremely low toxic product. It repels the rats and other rodents without killing them.

The product is available in various forms. The masterbatches can be used while manufacturing the PVC cables, wires, Agricultural films, pipes, household plastic goods etc. The spray can be directly applied on the packed items to avoid the nuisance. Rodrepel^TM can also be available as paint additives to secure the interior as well as exteriors of property. Rodrepel^TM in lacquer form can be coated over tree guards, fences, various PVC surfaces, etc. which would ensure a protection against the rodents. As it is mentioned before Rodrepel^TM is extremely low toxic its LD50 value (known as lethal dose which means the amount of chemical given to species to kill about 50% of its population) is 50000mg/kg which is less than any other repellent. By considering safety aspects it does not harm any animal or ecosystem. Rodrepel^TM is completely inert with polymer compounds and used to avoid any rodent infestation.

The expansion of super rats…

The attempts of killing rodents are making them evolve at super speed.

Genetic mutation has produced a new breed of rodents called ‘super rats’ with DNA which protects the rodent from standard toxins. Rats can, therefore, withstand the poison meant to kill them.

They are larger than average rodents which are sometimes even bigger than cats.

Some local authorities have reported a 10 percent increase in rodent numbers since last year.

The animals are known for carrying diseases that can be dangerous to humans and are becoming increasingly resistant to poison.

Rats ‘immune to poison’ could invade homes to feast on Xmas leftovers after lockdown breeding boom

Lottie Tiplady-Bishop
26 Dec 2020

RATS that are immune to poison could invade homes across the UK over Christmas and New Year after a breeding boom during lockdown.

Experts have warned that Christmas rubbish and food waste could tempt hungry vermin into homes to feast on leftover turkey and gather discarded wrapping paper.

An expert from Pest.co.uk said vermin are now attempting to infiltrate homes as there is less food waste from pubs and cafes due to strict Tier restrictions across the country.

Data shows how the rat population surged by 25 per cent during lockdown as swathes of pest controllers warned back in summer how the nationwide lockdown created a “perfect storm” for a rat population boom.

Deserted urban areas and an increase in residential food waste during lockdown saw the UK’s rat population skyrocket to a horrific 180 million – that’s 2.2 rats for every one person in Britain.

And with Brits confined to their homes, people took matters into their own hands – leaving out rat poison for the creatures rather than calling in the professionals, Pest.co.uk experts theorised.

Similar news was reported few months ago:

Resistant ‘super rats’ are breeding in the UK

Aug 1, 2020

A new survey will compile data to establish the extent to which resistance is understood and what methods farmers are using to control rodent infestations.

Research published by the University of Reading Vertebrate Pests Unit (VPU) suggests that resistance is spreading due to the use of anticoagulants containing the actives bromadiolone and difenacoum.By using products that are ineffective on resistant rodents, farmers are only killing rodents that have no resistance. This is leaving resistant rodents to breed with each other, which is causing numbers to increase rapidly.

The survey is being supported by BASF to raise awareness of resistance and compile fresh data about the use of rodenticides on farms throughout the UK.

Do you have difficulty in finding a solution to rodent and pest’s problem? Well, wait no more! There is now a solution well developed to aid your needs in getting rid of rodents and pests in your premises.

Rodrepel^TM, Termirepel^TM, Combirepel™, are non-toxic and non-hazardous patented solutions developed by C Tech Corporation, has been successful in keeping away rodents, termites/insects from plastic materials in a non-toxic and non-hazardous way. These products do not kill pests but only repels them using its sensory mechanism. The products are compliant with ROHS1, ROHS2, ROHS3, REACH, EU BPR, APVMA, NEA and are FIFRA exempted.

Squirrels and power outages

If your power has ever gone out on a beautiful day, you may have been the victim of a squirrelly attack.

That’s because squirrels are responsible for an impressive number of electrical issues each year.

The theory is that that endless growing of teeth of the rodents makes chewing an innate need, which is a must because if they don’t have that innate need, teeth will grow through the roof of their mouth.

The usage of soy or plant-based insulation around wires is another reason why the squirrels and other rodents are attracted towards the wires and cables.

Few power outage stories are as below:

Squirrel causes power outages in South Carolina

Squirrel killed while damaging the equipment

Nov 16, 2020

COLUMBIA, S.C. —

A section of South Carolina’s capital city was without power Monday after a squirrel caused equipment damage that led to the blackout.

Dominion Energy said in a Twitter post that the animal caused the outages in downtown Columbia. Company spokesman Matt Long told The State the squirrel was killed while damaging the equipment.

Another power outage was reported Monday after a dump truck hit some wires in the city, Long said.

By 11:45 a.m., nearly 1,800 customers had reported being without power, according to an outage map on the energy company’s website.

Nixa Power Outage Attributed to Furry Source

April 24, 2020

Things were a little nutty around the Nixa area Thursday morning.

Over 4,500 Nixa residents lost power around 9:15 a.m. Thursday morning when a safety mechanism at the Nixa Utilities Espy substation triggered and shut down the site.

Upon arriving at the site, Utility workers discovered the remains of a squirrel that had somehow gotten into the top of the large transformer at the station, which caused the safety systems to shut down.

Utilities are recognizing that while the costs to do actual substation repairs are significant, the cost to repair a reputation is much higher – and they have taken steps over the years to install measures to keep climbing animals at bay.

Engineers and technicians have attempted to prevent or discourage incursions by using an array of methods: squirrel guards, heat shrink tapes and tubing, spinning line guards, screening, greases, pole covers, lights, insulator coatings, decoys, and even live trapping.

These measures have had some temporary success, but they haven’t provided permanent solutions. And hence, an effective and durable solution is the need of the hour.

C Tech Corporation can offer a solution to overcome the damage caused by squirrels. Rodrepel^TM is an anti-rodent and animal aversive repellent which is extremely low in toxicity and extremely low hazard, environmentally safe solution. It is engineered using a unique set of complex compounds. It follows 6 pronged strategies which are extremely effective on rodents like the squirrel, rat, beaver, gopher, marmot, etc.

Rodrepel^TM is available in the form of a masterbatch, liquid concentrate, lacquer, wood polish additives and sprays.

The masterbatch can be incorporated in cable sheathing while it is manufactured. The product in the form of liquid concentrate can be diluted in paints and organic solvents and applied to cables. The lacquer which is a topical application can be directly applied to the already installed wires and cables, cabinets and transformer boxes. The wood polish additives can be mixed with the wood polish and applied on wooden surfaces.

Our newly developed product, Rodrepel™ Rodent Repellent Spray is an easy to use product which can be sprayed on wires and cables, electronic appliances, cabinets, to avoid the rodents from entering them.

Rodrepel^TM is cost-effective, inert, and thermally stable and does not degrade on exposure to heat and sunlight. It is RoHS, RoHS2, RoHS3, REACH, NEA, EU BPR, APVMA compliant and FIFRA exempted.

Rat Menace under the Hood!

Rodents are ubiquitous creatures notorious for the menace they create. Perhaps one of the most affected and largely ignored victims of rodent menace is the automobile industry. Under the hood components of cars are largely susceptible to rodent damage and when it is not serving as a safe haven for rodents from the cold weather it serves as a nutritious supply of electrical wiring, cabling, tubings, and injection molded parts. Rodent species are likely to enter into cars and other vehicles through openings beneath the bonnet and damaging wires and other parts of the engine.

There have been numerous cases where rodents have managed to destroy car wiring and wires under the hood, behind the dash panel, etc. Ever tried to rev up your engine in the morning and it simply won’t start? That is when you know that a rodent has been there, done that!!! The whole backside of the dash panel is a mouse paradise. Headliners, seats, carpeting, are all good rat material.

An interesting report cited the damage done to a brand new sports car by rodents. Clearly rodents are not class-conscious! The car was being transported by an FCL container from India to the UK. Upon arrival, when the logistics company opened the container door, they found two dead decomposed rats on the container floor and the wires in the car engines, etc are all damaged. Rodents biting threw wires and cables are also responsible for car fires. The damages range from hundreds to thousands of dollars not to mention that sometimes these damages are not covered by insurance.

Lockdown effect: Rodents nibble away at wiring of parked vehicles

Automobile service stations across city are coming across dozens of cases where rodents – rats, mice – have chewed wires and caused damaged

PUNE Updated: Nov 06, 2020, 15:48 IST

Jigar Hindocha

Hindustan Times, Pune

The Covid-19 lockdown had everyone house-bound, that means parked cars were left for a long period of time in the company of rodents causing massive damage to cables of vehicles.

Automobile service stations across city are coming across dozens of cases where rodents – rats, mice – have chewed wires and caused damaged worth lakhs of rupees to the owners.

Neeraj Bhide, a resident of Prabhat road, had to spend Rs 1,40,000 to replace wiring and radiator fan of his luxury four-wheeler.

“My car was parked at Prabhat road for the three months. In May, when the restrictions were eased while driving, I came to know that the engine temperature of my vehicle is very high as the radiator fan was not working,” said Bhide, a working professional. It was the first time Bhide has come across to such damage to his cars.

“If your car is standing for a long period then such damage happens,” explained Bhide.

Ashwin Apte, who runs Apte Shri Auto Service, near MIT College Kothrud, said, “Such a problem arises only when the car is standing at one place for many days. Generally, rats are found in parking areas and after lockdown, many of our clients are facing similar problems.”

The rats have either eaten wires in the engine compartment or have chewed cable of air condition and seat covers were also damaged.

“Out of seven cars which we get to repair in a day, four-five cars have a problem of wire damages. Price of every wire varies, but on an average minimum one has to spend Rs10,000 to fix the wire connection,” added Apte.

Rat caused fire in car showroom, CCTV footage revealed

By NewsTrack

Aug 21, 2020

People lay traps to catch mice so that they do not get harmed. But 1 rat has done such a thing that it has become part of the headlines. This matter is of February. A sudden fire in a car showroom in Musheerabad, Hyderabad caused a loss of Rs 1 crore. However, now during the investigation, it is found that a mouse was responsible for this accident.

According to media reports, on February 8, the Maruti Nexa car showroom and service center in Musheerabad had caught fire. In this, goods worth about 1 crore including 3 cars were burnt. The police closed the case, assuming the fire was caused by the shot circuit. However, later on, a private company investigating CCTV of that night, it has been found that the fire was caused by rats.

According to reports, there was a pooja in the showroom at around ten in the morning on the day of the accident. Earthern Lamps were also burnt for this. It kept burning till night. At about 11:51 pm, a rat appears on the table of the customer service room. After this, in the footage of 11:55 pm, the rat is seen dragging the burning lamp. After this, it leaves the light under the chair. Then there was a fire under the chair. However, even during that, the rat remains on the table. After this, at around 12:06 pm, the chair is surrounded by flames.

Against this background, there is a need to address rodent damage in vehicles in an effective and sustainable manner. Conventional methods involve the use of traditional remedies like moth balls or natural repellent baits. But these are ineffective in their scope to address the problems as the rodents can easily make their way around these contraptions and gnaw away to glory. What is required is an intrinsic solution that can be used to address the problems by direct incorporation in the electrical wiring and injection molded parts.

Rodrepel™ is an innovative product designed and developed for the automobile industry and individual car users. The products are available in the form of a masterbatch which can be incorporated within wires and cables and polymeric materials right at the outset via extrusion thus making them inherently rodent proof.

Ancillary precautions can be taken by also using topical coating based formulations of Rodrepel™ for existing cars with wires and cables. These have a lifespan of as high as up to a year depending on the adhesive lifespan used however it renders the same level of protection that the masterbatch approach gives for a reduced lifespan. The plastic seats can also be extruded with Rodrepel™ or laminated with thin films comprising of Rodrepel™.

It is also available in lacquer and liquid form and can be easily coated onto an application to repel the rodents. The best part about this product is that it works on the mechanism of repellence and does not kill the target species. i.e. rodents, thus being in accordance with the need of the century, Sustainability, and green chemistry.

The Rodrepel^TMrodent repellent spray is an easy to use product and can be used on engine components.

Battling rat infestation at airports

The global pandemic has brought the entire world to a standstill. Humans as well as animals are finding it difficult to survive.

One such animal which has probably got more aggressive since his food supply has suddenly reduced and disappeared is the rodent.

Rodents have two pairs of continuously growing incisors which must be kept sharp by gnawing. So just like we clip our fingernails, a rat gnaws on things in order to keep its teeth in check. Overgrown teeth are a possible problem for them. They like any surface that they can gnaw on, let the surface be metal, polymer, concrete, wood, etc.

Since the flights have been cancelled and there is minimum or negligible human activity at the airports, the airport shops and restaurants have been invaded by these furry rodents.

Ratatouille 2? Mice Spotted In Paris Airport Restaurant

Simple Flying – Joanna Bailey | 24 June 2020

Some furry fiends have been spotted clambering over pizza and quiche, reportedly in a restaurant at Paris Charles de Gaulle airport. The footage, shared on the 11th June, identifies two of the rodent rascals inside a food case at one of the airport’s cafes.

Since these places have been closed for a long time now, we need to take appropriate measures inorder o avoid the damages. What effective measures can be implemented to avoid this menace?

Rodrepel™ is a product manufactured by C Tech Corporation which is an extremely low toxicity and extremely low hazard, and environmentally safe anti-rodent additive specially developed for a range of polymeric and coating applications including films, wires, and cables, etc. It is also effective in case the target species are other animals.

The wires and cables used in the airplanes for radar, communication, control, signaling, data transmission, lighting, surveillance, etc. can be incorporated with Rodrepel™ masterbatch to prevent them from pest attack and ultimately avoid any signaling loss, communication disruption or fire hazard. Different types of polymeric seats can be manufactured by incorporating our masterbatch in them.

Rodrepel™ is also available in lacquer and liquid concentrate form and can be easily coated onto an application to repel the rodents.

The liquid concentrate can be blended with paints and applied to the interior and exterior of the airplanes to prevent the entry of pests in them. The liquid concentrate can be applied to the interior and exterior of the airports and the offices. The storage areas from the airports can be coated with our liquid concentrate to keep those places safe from pest menace. The liquid concentrate can be used in accommodation areas of pilots and crew members. The liquid concentrate is compatible with all types of paints and it dries off easily.

The lacquer can be applied to already installed wires and cables, utility pipes, polymeric and metallic racks, pallets. The already installed arrestor cables can be coated using our Rodrepel™ lacquer which will prevent the rodents from chewing them. The lacquer can be applied to metallic components from the equipment. The lacquer is an easy application that is compatible with most of the surfaces like wood, concrete, polymer, ceramics, concrete, etc.

We have developed our product in the form of a spray, the Rodrepel^TM rodent repellent spray which is an easy to use product. The product can be sprayed on components from airplanes, offices, kitchen and canteen areas, storage areas, food carts, trolley cars, etc. after clearing the dust and waste from components. It can be sprayed on the wires and cables, seat cushions, doors, and windows of airplanes. It can be sprayed on infested areas and entry points. The product when applied properly repels the pests and protects the components from damage. The expensive components can thus be protected, and unnecessary maintenance cost spent on replacement of the parts damaged by pests can be saved. The product does not cause any harmful effect on human health, non-target species or even target species. The product is safe for the environment.
