1. Short title This Act may be cited as the Glue Trap Prohibition Act of 2024 . 2. Findings The Congress finds the following: (1) A glue trap, also known as a glue board or sticky board, is comprised of a layer of cardboard, plastic, or wood coated with a non-drying adhesive or a shallow tray of the adhesive. These traps, used by homeowners, food processors, and pest management companies to control rodent populations, work by ensnaring rodents or other small animals as they cross the device by having their feet and bodies stick to the adhesive. Unable to free themselves, especially as more parts of their bodies become stuck to the trap, the victims typically die from starvation, dehydration, or suffocation after several days. The process is extremely cruel and painful, and it subjects animals, whether the intended target or not, to a slow and inhumane death. (2) Glue traps may also trap or maim non-target wildlife, including protected species, and household pets who may subsequently require veterinary assistance and examination. (3) The United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has cautioned against the use of glue traps, as trapped animals produce urine and feces that may harmfully affect human health. (4) Countries, cities, agencies, and businesses around the world have increasingly taken steps to limit or ban the sale or use of glue traps over animal welfare, health, and humane concerns. 3.
