What is Gambutral?

Gambutral (gamma butyl tral) is an agricultural chemical used as a rodenticide. It is a potent neurotoxin that can cause paralysis and death in rodents. Gambutral is also known as warfarin, a widely used anticoagulant rodenticide.

Gambutral is highly toxic to humans and animals. It can be absorbed through the skin, eyes, or respiratory tract. Symptoms of Gambutral poisoning include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, headache, dizziness, weakness, and paralysis. In severe cases, Gambutral poisoning can be fatal.

There is no antidote for Gambutral poisoning. Treatment is supportive and may include decontamination, administration of activated charcoal, and supportive care for symptoms.

Gambutral is a restricted-use pesticide. It is only available for purchase and use by certified applicators. Applicators must follow all label directions and safety precautions when using Gambutral.
