While in principle I agree with you, the problem with poison is that it is likely to kill *something*, but you can't be sure what. Rat traps will only kill reasonably small things, and thus won't kill children.
But, in an environment where people are living in tattered tents on level sand, rats are REALLY hard to defend against. I don't like using poison but it may be the only solution here.
@Geri in this case I allow it. Rodents also spread diseases, the situation is already difficult enough for these people, health care is scarce, food as well. I don't think there are any means to store it safer. They have nothing left. I pick a human life, or the life of a human family over the life of a few rodents. @Layan2002 @apenkop @kathimmel @DrALJONES @simon_brooke @wrzky @sallytheflame @franciswashere @fedipourgaza

@simon_brooke @karelbrits @Geri@veganism.social For the record, friends, this is one of the dirty tactics Israel uses against us: unleashing thousands of stray dogs and rodents to ruin our lives—lives that, in reality, are nothing more than a name.
@simon_brooke rat poison is indeed very dangerous for people and children as well. It wouldn't be the first time a child ate rat poison and died. But what's the alternative in such conditions? This war should end as fast as possible. @Geri @Layan2002
