Wednesday, Congressman Ted Lieu (D-CA-36) introduced the Glue Trap Prohibition Act, seeking to place a national ban on the possession and use of glue traps to catch rodents. Congressman Adam Schiff (D-CA-30) is an original cosponsor of the legislation. Representative Lieu released a statement highlighting his view on the uses of these vital tools for PMPs. Representative Lieu also mentioned the City of West Hollywood, California's ban on glue traps last year in his press release.
NPMA will work to express concern and opposition to this legislation to members of Congress and will continue to educate Representative Lieu's office on the importance of retaining every pest control tool possible to combat rising rodent populations across the United States. NPMA does not anticipate this legislation moving forward.
