Subject: Pesticide Memorandum - Peregrine Falcon Recovery Program 2008

In past years the Ontario Ministries of the Environment and Natural Resources have provided the structural pest control industry with a mail out of the current Peregrine Falcon Recovery sites with a request that bird control products such as 4-amino pyridine and strychnine impregnated corn not be used within a 7.5 km radius of these sites and that alternative methods be considered. This year I have, instead of a mail out, placed the 2008 Pesticide Memorandum on the Ministry of the Environment website. The document number 6748e is located at the following web link. http://www.ene.gov.on.ca/en/publications/forms/index.php#PLC  under Pesticide Licensing and Certification.

I would appreciate your co-operation in providing this web link on your individual industry web sites. Also, feel free to add a copy to your sites (a PDF copy is attached) or provide copies to your membership.

Thank you,
