USE OF CHLOROPHACINONE IN THE STRUGGLE AGAINST THE COMMON VOLE (\u3ci\u3eMicrotus arvalis\u3c/i\u3e Pallas) AND AGAINST THE MUSKRAT \u3ci\u3eOndatra zibethica\u3c/i\u3e L.)

Abstract

The use of the anticoagulant rodenticide, chlorophacinone, was largely developed in France during the last ten years. Its special properties, with respect to those of other anticoagulants currently known, have contributed largely to finding an effective and economically acceptable solution in the struggle against the two most damaging rodents in France: the common vole (Microtus arvalis P. ) and the muskrat (Ondatra zibethica L. )
