Program Details:
Operating Agency: Siskiyou County Department of Agriculture (County Government)
Person In Charge: Assistant Agricultural Commissioner:Greg Herman

Program/Service Notes:
The County Agricultural Commissioner is required by law to make rodent baits available to the public. This department offers for sale four different types of baits to help control rodent pests such as: Gophers; Two species of ground squirrels, and Two species of mice. These rodents cause agricultural/structural damage while also acting as vectors for various diseases that are transmittable to humans. These diseases include Bubonic Plague, rabies and Hanta Virus. Rodent surveys are done on a routine basis in order to alert growers of a population buildup. Whenever possible, the public and businesses are advised regarding different types of rodent prevention and control, rather than relying solely on the use of baits.
