In short:

The Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority has declared second-generation anticoagulant rodenticides a restricted chemical product.

The ruling means popular, commercially available rat baits could only be sold to licensed operators, such as pest controllers.

What's next?

The AVPMA will work with state and territory governments to enact the ban in coming months.
