Warning on Sodium Cyanide Use for Rabbit Control
Department of Agriculture tests show sodium cyanide can kill rabbits but releases hydrogen cyanide slowly. Spilled or exposed material near burrows endangers stock for long periods, with 2 percent released after 42 hours and about 69-70 percent after 72 to 92 hours, indicating persistence and risk if not properly placed.
