Cute critters such as field mice, sparrows and other birds will breathe a sigh of relief if a ban on glue traps in New York State goes into law.
Brooklyn state Sen. Jabari Brisport introduced the proposed legislation, which is co-sponsored by Manhattan state Sen. Brad Hoylman-Sigal and Brooklyn state Sen. Julia Salazar. If put into law, the ban would prohibit the production, sale and use of adhesive-based rodent traps, which many people say is a cruel and inhumane way to exterminate household pests such as mice.
