construction and ((designed to accomplish that purpose, and))
tamper resistant. Baits placed in industrial, commercial or
other areas that are accessible to the public shall be contained
in tamper resistant bait boxes and such bait boxes shall be
secured in such a way that nonpest animals, children and
unauthorized persons cannot displace or remove the baits out of
such bait boxes. Bait boxes shall be labeled clearly with

Food containers, such as "meat boats" and "souffle cups" are unacceptable. Containers used for liquid bait exposure shall be water and/or liquid impervious.

(8) Upon completion of a baiting operation, all bait boxes, containers, and/or throw bags, if they may become readily accessible to the public, shall be recovered for disposal in an approved manner.
(9) Wherever poisoned carcasses jeopardize public sanitation, or create a health hazard to wildlife, domestic animals, or the public, they shall be recovered and disposed of by burning, burying not less than three feet below the soil surface, or placed in proper waste containers and delivered to an approved disposal site.
(10) Thallium-containing compounds shall not be used for vertebrate control.
