Humane Society call for ban on rodent glue traps

摘要

The UK arm of animal welfare charity Humane Society International has launched an #Unstuck campaign to highlight the cruelty of rodent glue traps and to call for a UK sale ban on the devices. Although widely marketed and used around the world, these glue traps are designed to capture, but not kill the target animal. In the UK, glue traps are widely available online as well as in retail outlets. Their use by professionals is permitted but prescribed as an option of last resort (see http://www.pmalliance.org. uk/do wnl oads/G 1 ueboardCO P. pd f).
