Description
This manual is for operators of Alaska waterfront facilities who want to control rats where they are a problem, and to keep other locations rat-free. The book addresses methods and strategies for prevention and control in Alaska ports, harbors, seafood processing and other waterfront facilities, and aboard vessels. Learn about inspecting for rat presence, eliminating shelter, sanitation principles, trapping, and poisons. In addition the book has information for managers on planning and operating a rat control program, complying with state law, contracting with a pest control professional, and involving the community in the rat control effort. While the focus is on controlling rats in Alaska ports, this publication can be used worldwide.
