HD 6225 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act prohibiting anticoagulant rodenticides in the town of Lincoln

This bill grants the Town of Lincoln the authority to ban the use of anticoagulant rodenticides, which are a specific type of poison used to kill rodents. The law applies to all users, including licensed commercial pest control companies, though the town's Board of Health retains the power to allow exceptions if necessary to address immediate public health emergencies. By overriding existing state laws, the legislation enables the town to enforce its own local rules regarding these pesticides without needing further state approval.
