This petition was submitted during the 2017 to 2019 Parliament
Rejected petition Ban the sale and use of inhumane pest control, especially glue traps
Rejected on
Glue traps are immensely cruel and indiscriminate. Endangered wildlife and pets are caught and die slowly.
The animals all die slow painful deaths. They catch anything that crosses them. In a civilised country these kinds of things have no place. Endangered wildlife and pets get caught also.
