[QUOTE="user 1769, post: 55650, member: 1769"] I used 'everywhere' in a figurative way, but they do use it quite a bit. It is considered very effective and safe as far as poisons go. My problem, personally, is not with 1080 but with laying down poison baits (of any kind) indiscriminately. That said, I accept that sometimes it's the only thing that works. I've never heard of a pet lasting 3-4 hours after eating it though. I guess if they take a tiny dose maybe. Usually death is pretty fast, like 1/2h to 45m, according to my vet. I lost 2 dogs to snake bite last year, and while discussing it with the vet I was asking a lot of questions about 1080 poisoning, as the post-mortem hadn't come in yet and cause of death was unknown at that stage. Also, Wikipedia have it as being in use in the US (but not as scattered baits), Australia, New Zealand, Israel, Japan, Korea and Mexico. [/QUOTE]
