| Description | Helicopters are used to deploy acetaminophen-treated dead mouse baits attached to biodegradable corn starch streamers to reduce the number of invasive brown treesnakes in the more remote and rugged areas of Guam. The streamers are designed to snag onto branches where the snakes feed. In 2013, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) Wildlife Services (WS) is partnering with the Departments of Defense and Interior, and the Guam Department of Agriculture to deploy acetaminophen-treated dead mouse baits attached to biodegradable corn starch streamers designed to snag onto branches in the dense tree canopy where the snakes feed. The successful delivery of aerial baits is a critical next step towards developing a method for large area control of the snakes and reaching the snakes in remote and inaccessible areas of Guam.
