The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 5016, aims to amend the general statutes to impose restrictions on the use and sale of second generation rodenticides. This legislative action is motivated by the need to safeguard the health of birds of prey and other animals that prey on rodents, which can be adversely affected by these chemicals.

The bill does not specify the exact legal language that will be inserted or deleted from current law, but it clearly indicates a focus on limiting the availability of these harmful rodenticides. By doing so, the bill seeks to promote environmental health and protect wildlife, particularly species that are integral to the ecosystem's balance.
