Rodenticide Information
Under the UK Rodenticide Stewardship Scheme run by the CRRU (Campaign for Responsible Rodenticide Use) set up in 2015, certification is required for the purchase of rat baits used outside buildings or over 1kg in quantity.
WHEN YOU PURCHASE RAT BAIT THROUGH OUR WEBSITE WE REQUIRE A COPY OF VALID RAT CERTIFICATE/ FARM ASSURANCE MEMBERSHIP, COMPLETED CRRU FORM & PHOTO ID BEFORE DISPATCH.
Once received, proof of certification & photo ID are kept on customer file and can be used for future orders.
Certification is easy to obtain through the following link: https://www.thinkwildlife.org/training-certification/
Once you have gained certification, we will need to receive a copy of photo ID & completed CRRU form before we dispatch the order.
If you already have proof of certification, please email us a copy of photo ID and the following completed form: CRRU Approved Certification Declaration.
Farms which are already a member of a Farm Assurance Scheme Declaration which is recognised by CRRU must send us a copy of photo ID proof of membership & the following completed form: CRRU Aligned Farm Assurance Scheme.
