Background
In 2018, a sodium nitrite (SN)‐based toxic bait for invasive wild pigs (hereafter wild pigs; Sus scrofa), was evaluated to determine its effectiveness in reducing local wild pig populations in Texas. Localized population reductions of >70% were achieved, but spillage of bait outside wild pig‐specific feeders (bait stations) caused by feeding wild pigs resulted in the deaths of non‐target...
BACKGROUND
Wild pigs (Sus scrofa) are a destructive invasive species throughout many regions of the world. In 2018, a field evaluation of an early prototype of a sodium nitrite (SN) toxic bait in the United States revealed wild pigs dropped large amounts of the toxic bait outside the pig‐specific bait stations while feeding, and thus subsequent hazards for non‐target animals. We modified the SN‐toxic...
