Govt To Bomb Guam With Frozen Mice To Kill Snakes
rhettb writes "In a spectacularly creative effort to rid Guam of the brown tree snake, an invasive species which has ravaged local wildlife and angered local residents, the US Department of Agriculture is planning to 'bomb' the island's rainforests with dead frozen mice laced with acetaminophen. While it might not seem difficult to purge an island of snakes, the snake's habit of dwelling high in the rainforest canopy has so far thwarted efforts to rid the island of the pest. Eradicating the snake is a priority because it triggers more than 100 power outages a year at a cost of $1-4 million and has driven at least 6 local bird species to extinction."
Nevermind about liver damage. Tylenol is rediculously easy to overdose on. That is probably what this tactic is based on.
Tylenol is bad news. Probably shouldn't even be on the market.
A Pirate and a Puritan look the same on a balance sheet.
Do you know that this is a species that won't eat a cold mouse or are you just spreading FUD?

My personal experience is that when you quit, most people experience anxiety, extreme agitation, loss of appetite, and even nightmares for several days afterwards.
