Experimental use of the gull toxicant DRC 1339 at Machias Seal Island Bird Sanctuary in 1984 / by Steven M. Daniel.: CW66-1443/1984E-PDF

"In 1984 the Canadian Wildlife Service obtained a research permit to apply a toxicant to assist in the control of populations of Herring and Great Black-backed Gulls at Machias Seal Island. That permit (#51-RP-84), issued under the Pest Control Products Act. allowed the CWS use of a U.S. registered chemical, (3-chloro-4-methyl benzamine hydrochloride) known as DRC-1339, which was formulated in the early 1960's and originally tested by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service at the Denver Wildlife Research Centre on Starlings (Sturnus vulgaris). This report documents the handling, application and results of use of that toxicant, on gulls, during the period May - July 1984"--page 2.
