OK, it took me awhile:  Rampage (not sport fishing yachts, not heavy metal group, not shoes, not hockey league, not RV vehecles, not lingere, not perfume) here it is!   "this toxin is very lethel to dogs" with no known antidote--4ml/ lb--that's about 1/2 cup for a 30 lb doggie.  Another rodenticide I found under the names Assult, Vengence, Trounce lethal at 2 ml/ lb.   I have a whole new respect for these bait poisons.  We're back to old fashion traps.  And I HATE rodents in my sheds.  I think we'll even sacrifice the baby birds to the newst consideration: feline stalkers.

There’s a rodent poison called Rampage.  It’s active ingredient is vitamin D3, which causes rapid and fatal hardening of the arteries is rodents, and only rodents.  Non-rodents eating rodents killed by Rampage would not be harmed.

DON

Will anything that eats the bodies then get killed by the rat poison?
